Given that tan θ = –8∕15 and θ is in quadrant IV, find sin θ. Question 19 options: A) 15∕17 B) –15∕17 C) –8∕17 D) 8∕17

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

In the quadrant IV, it is only a cos θ that is positive.

Given that tan θ = –8∕15

Where tan θ = opposite ÷ adjacent

Where opposite = 8 and adjacent = 15

We can find the hypothenus by using pythagorean theorem

Hypothenus = sqrt(15^2 + 8^2)

Hypothenus = sqrt(289)

Hypothenus = 17.

Sin θ = opposite ÷ hypothenus

Sin θ = 8/17

Since Sin θ is also negative in the fourth quadrant, therefore

Sin θ = - 8/17

Option C is correct.

Determine the domain and range of the function F(x)=(x-3) {exponent of 2 behind the parentheses}

Answers

That's a parabola. Inside the parenthesis the x-3 affects the placement on the x axis. since is subtracting you move the vertex 3 to the right(because its backwards like that) There is no limit to the x, as it will slowly mom out forever even when its so steep that in reality you dont care, so domain is infinite or all real numbers. the parabola is positive so it moves up forever, but it never goes below its vertex on the x axis. 
Domain=all real numbers
Range= all real numbers>or = 0

Write an algebraic expression for the phrase:six times a length w

Answers

Six times a length w means that we will repeat the w six times.

This can be expressed algebraically in two ways:
1- using addition:
    six times a length w = w+w+w+w+w+w 
2- using multiplication:
    six times a length w = 6*w
