the polynomial x^2+bx+15 has a factor of x-3. what is the value of b ?

Answer:

The distance the hiker must travel is approximately 5.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the two cell phone towers = 22.5 miles

The distance between the hiker's phone and Tower A = 14.2 miles

The distance between the hiker's phone and Tower B = 10.9 miles

The direction of the highway along which the towers are located = East to west

The direction in which the hiker is travelling to reach the highway quickly = South

By cosine rule, we have;

a² = b² + c² - 2·b·c·cos(A)

Let 'a', 'b', and 'c', represent the sides of the triangle formed by the imaginary line between the two towers, the hiker's phone and Tower A, and the hiker's hone and tower B respectively, we have;

a = 22.5 miles

b = 14.2 miles

c = 10.9 miles

Therefore, we have;

22.5² = 14.2² + 10.9² - 2 × 14.2 × 10.9 × cos(A)

cos(A) = (22.5² - (14.2² + 10.9²))/( - 2 × 14.2 × 10.9) ≈ -0.6

∠A = arccos(-0.6) ≈ 126.9°

By sine rule, we have;

a/(sin(A)) = b/(sin(B)) = c/(sin(C))

∴ sin(B) = b × sin(A)/a

∴ sin(B) = 14.2×(sin(126.9°))/22.5

∠B = arcsine(14.2×(sin(126.9°))/22.5) ≈ 30.31°

∠C = 180° - (126.9° - 30.31°) = 22.79° See No Evil

The distance the hiker must travel, d = c × sin(B)

∴ d = 10.9 × sin(30.31°) ≈ 5.5

Therefore, the distance the hiker must travel, d ≈ 5.5 miles.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5,3) should be your slope. Start from the bottom of the line and go up. Use the X axis slope 1st because of the x1 y1 coordinates.

Answer:

(5,-1)

(-4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

5 is in the X axis

-1 is in the Y axis

0 is in the X axis

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The winnings are in G.P. : 1, 2, 4, ..... till 10 toss.

[tex]$a_n = 1 \times 2^{n-1}\ \ \ \forall \ n = 1,2,3,4,....,10$[/tex]

[tex]$a_n$[/tex] denotes the winnings on the [tex]$n^{th}$[/tex] toss.

The probability of earning amount [tex]$a_n$[/tex] on the [tex]$n^{th}$[/tex] toss is = [tex]$\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^n$[/tex]

∴ [tex]$E(X) = \sum_{n=1}^{10} \ a_n \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^n $[/tex]

            [tex]$=\sum_{n=1}^{10} \ 1 \times \frac{2^{n-1}}{2^n} $[/tex]

           [tex]$=\sum_{n=1}^{10} \ \frac{1}{2}$[/tex]

Sum of the 1st n terms of the A.P. is :

[tex]$=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d] $[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{10}{2}[2\times \frac{1}{2}+(10-1)\times 0] $[/tex]

= 5

Therefore, E(X) = 5

Hence the expected value of the game is 5

Answer:

Length = 3.84 feets (nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of section of wire can be obtyaiejd using the length of of a arc formular :

Length of arc = θ/360° * 2πr

Radius, r = 2.5 feets

Length of arc = (88/360) *2πr

Length of arc = (88/360) * 2π*2.5

Length of arc = 0.244444 * 15.707963

Length of arc = 3.8397

Length = 3.84 feets (nearest hundredth)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

0.075 inches per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is measured as

( difference in diameter ) ÷ ( difference in years )

= ( 251 - 248 ) ÷ ( 2005 - 1965 )

= 3 inches ÷ 40 years

= 0.075 inches per year

Answer: x = 13

angel bge and angle agf are vertical meaning they’re equivalent

77 + 90 + x = 180 (180 because all of them added together are supplementary)

167 + x = 180

x = 13

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X=13

Answer:

(f + g)(2) = 16

(f - g)(2) = 0

(fg)(2) = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) = 8          g(2) = 8

(f + g)(2) = f(2) + g(2) = 8 + 8 = 16

(f - g)(2) = f(2) - g(2) = 8 - 8 = 0

(fg)(2) = f(2)g(2) = 8(8) = 64

Answer: A. 9(2x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

combine like terms

21x+9-3x

21x-3x

18x+9

Factor the expression

factor out 9 from the expression

you get 9(2x - 1)

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Area of the circle = πr²

A = πr²................. Equation 1

Where r = radius of the circle.

⇒ r = √(A/π)............. Equation 2

Given: A = 346.5 cm², π = 3.14

r = √(346.5/3.14)

r = √(110.35)

r = 10.5 cm.

Therefore,

circumference of the circle = 2πr = 2×3.14×10.5

circumference = 65.94 m

If the length of the arc(s) is 1/5 of its circumference.

Therefore, length of arc (s) = 13.188

⇒ length of arc/circumference = 13.188/65.94 =  1/5

s/2πr = θ/360

Where θ = angle substends at the center of the circle

1/5 = θ/360

θ = 360/5

θ = 72°

Answer:

The distance would be [tex]\sqrt{97[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The least distance between them would be to draw a straight line between them.

By calculating the distance between the y values and the x values, you can calculate the distance.

y values:

|5 - 1| = 4

x values:

|6 - -3| = 9

| | = the absolute value, meaning you change the final sign to positive.

Use the Pythagorean theorem [tex]a^2 +b^2=c^2[/tex] and substitute the numbers in.

[tex]4^2 + 9^2=c^2 \\c^2 = 97\\c=\sqrt{97[/tex]
