The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. The second angle is 40 degrees more than the first
angle and the third angle is 5 times the measure of the first angle. What is the measure of the largest
angle?
Answer:
100⁰
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
First angle = x
Second angle = x + 40
Third angle = 5x
=> x + x + 40 + 5x = 180
=> 7x + 40 = 180
=> 7x = 180 - 40
=> 7x = 140
=> x = 140/7
=> x = 20
Largest angle = 5x = 5(20) = 100⁰
[tex]\huge{\purple{\underline{\underline{\bf{\pink{ANSWER:-}}}}}}[/tex]
First angle = x Second angle = x + 40Third angle = 5x[tex]:\implies\bf{x + x + 40 + 5x = 180} \\ \\ :\implies\bf{7x + 40 = 180} \\ \\ :\implies\bf{7x = 180 - 40} \\ \\ :\implies\bf{7x = 140} \\ \\ :\implies\bf{x = \frac{140}{7} } \\ \\ :\implies\bf{x = 20}[/tex]
The largest angle above is 5x thus,
[tex]:\implies\bf{5x} \\ \\ :\implies\bf{5 \times 20} \\ \\ :\implies\bf{100^°}[/tex]
Jen is on the platform of her boat. She sights the top of a lighthouse at an angle of 30º as shown below. She knows that the height of the lighthouse is 50 meters.
How far is Jen from the base of the lighthouse, in meters?
The distance Jen is from the base of the lighthouse is 86.6 meters.
Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides of a and angles of a right angled triangle.
Let d represent the distance Jen is from the base of the lighthouse.
Using trigonometric ratios:
[tex]tan(30)=\frac{50}{d} \\\\d=\frac{50}{tan(30)} \\\\d=86.6\ m[/tex]
The distance Jen is from the base of the lighthouse is 86.6 meters.

A man walks 10 km, then travels a certain distance by train and then by bus as far as twice by the train. If the whole journey is of 70km, how far did he travel by train?
Answer:
The man traveled 20km by train.
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the distance he traveled by train, you can write this equation to represent the situation:
[tex]10+x+2x=70[/tex]
Then, you can simply solve for x:
[tex]10+3x=70\\3x=60\\x=20[/tex]
The man traveled 20km by train.
[tex]10+(20)+2(20)=70\\10+20+40=70\\70=70[/tex]

The 8 degree polynomial for the given roots can be written as p(x) = x⁸ - x⁷- 12x⁶ - 4x⁵ + 30x⁴ + 51x³ + 18x².
What is factor theorem?The factor theorem states that for a polynomial p(x) if there exists a real number a such that p(a) = 0, then (x - a) is one of the factors of p(x).
The roots of the polynomial are given as follows,
Number of roots at -2 = 1
Number of roots at 3 = 2
Number of roots at 0 = 2
And, number of roots at -1 = 3.
Now, the polynomial can be written using factor theorem as,
p(x) = x²(x + 2)(x - 3)²(x + 1)³
= x²(x + 2)(x²- 6x + 9)(x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1)
= x⁸ - x⁷- 12x⁶ - 4x⁵ + 30x⁴ + 51x³ + 18x²
Hence, the polynomial for given roots can be written as p(x) = x⁸ - x⁷- 12x⁶ - 4x⁵ + 30x⁴ + 51x³ + 18x².

Let S1= 1, S2=2+3, S3= 4+5+6
Find S7
Find S17
Find Sn
Answer:
S7 = 175S17 = 2465Sn = 1/2(n³ +n)Step-by-step explanation:
The progression of sums is ...
1, 5, 15, 34, 65, ...
So, first differences are ...
4, 10, 19, 31
Second differences are ...
6, 9, 12, ...
Third differences are constant:
3, 3, ...
This means the expression for Sn will be a cubic expression. If dn is the first of the n-th differences, then the equation can be written as ...
Sn = S1 +(n -1)(d1 +(n -2)/2(d2 +(n -3)/3(d3)))
And this simplifies a little bit to ...
Sn = 1 +(n -1)(4 +(n -2)(n +3)/2)
In simpler form, we have ...
Sn = 1/2(n³ +n)
Then the two terms we're interested in are ...
S7 = (1/2)(7³ +7) = 175
S17 = (1/2)(17³ +17) = 2465
Each term Sₙ consists of the sum of a triangular number of terms, which are given by
[tex]T_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n k = 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + n = \frac{n(n+1)}2[/tex]
The triangular numbers are given recursively for n ≥ 1 by
[tex]T_n = T_{n-1} + n[/tex]
starting with T₀ = 0.
For example,
• S₁ = 1 and
[tex]\displaystyle S_1 = \sum_{k=T_0+1}^{T_1} k = \sum_{k=1}^1 k = 1[/tex]
• S₂ = 2 + 3 and
[tex]\displaystyle S_2 = \sum_{k=T_1+1}^{T_2} k = \sum_{k=2}^3 k = 2 + 3[/tex]
• S₃ = 4 + 5 + 6 and
[tex]\displaystyle S_3 = \sum_{k=T_2+1}^{T_3} k = \sum_{k=4}^6 k = 4 + 5 + 6[/tex]
Then the n-th term of the sequence we're considering is
[tex]S_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=T_{n-1}+1}^{T_n} k = \sum_{k=T_{n-1}+1}^{T_{n-1}+n} k[/tex]
Expanding this sum, we have
[tex]S_n = \left(T_{n-1}+1\right) + \left(T_{n-1}+2\right) + \left(T_{n-1}+3\right) + \cdots + \left(T_{n-1}+n\right)[/tex]
There are n terms on the right side, and hence n copies of [tex]T_{n-1}[/tex], and the rest of the terms make up the next triangular number [tex]T_n[/tex] :
[tex]S_n = nT_{n-1} + 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + n[/tex]
[tex]S_n = nT_{n-1} + \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n k[/tex]
[tex]S_n = nT_{n-1} + T_n[/tex]
We have a closed form for [tex]T_n[/tex], so we end up with
[tex]S_n = n \cdot \dfrac{(n-1)n}2 + \dfrac{n(n+1)}2 \implies \boxed{S_n=\dfrac{n^3+n}2}[/tex]
From here it's easy to find S₇ and S₁₇.
[tex]S_7 = \dfrac{7^3+7}2 \implies \boxed{S_7 = 175}[/tex]
[tex]S_{17} = \dfrac{17^3+17}2 \implies \boxed{S_{17} = 2465}[/tex]

If a triangle has a base of 6' and a height of 4' its area would be what?

Hello There!
According to the question,
Base=6
And
Height =4
Let's know the formula
[tex] \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height \\ so \\ \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 4 \\ [/tex]
simplify 2 with 6 then it will look like this

1 has no value so

Real numbers are a set of numbers containing all of the rational numbers and all of the irrational numbers.
Types of numbers in the rational number "section" are decimals, whole, mixed, and fraction numbers whether they are negative or positive they are rational numbers.
Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers. So they would be square root, pi and more.

Suppose a normal distribution has a mean of 79 and a standard deviation of 7. What is P(x ≥ 72)?
A. 0.84
B. 0.975
C. 0.025
D. 0.16
Approximately 65% of the distribution lies within one standard deviation of the mean, which is to say,
P(72 ≤ x ≤ 86) ≈ 0.65
Normal distributions are symmetric, so the percentage of values one standard deviation below the mean is equal to the percentage of values one standard deviation above the mean.
P(72 ≤ x ≤ 79) = P(79 ≤ x ≤ 86)
but since the sum of these make up P(72 ≤ x ≤ 86), we find
P(72 ≤ x ≤ 79) ≈ 0.65/2 = 0.325
Also due to symmetry, exactly half of the distribution lies to either side of the mean; namely,
P(x ≥ 79) = 0.5
It follows that
P(x ≥ 72) = P(72 ≤ x ≤ 79) + P(79 ≤ x)
P(x ≥ 72) = 0.325 + 0.5
P(x ≥ 72) = 0.825 ≈ 0.84
Answer: 0.84

Answer:
|-5| absolute be always + so 5
Answer:
[tex]5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Determine what absolute value does
Taking the absolute value of a number just returns how far a specific value is from 0. So in this case we see a number -9 and although it's negative it's still 9 away from 0 therefore that would be the absolute value.
We are missing the absolute value of -5 or 5 so we know that taking the absolute value would just give us the distance from 0. In this case that would just be 5.
