Answer:

x ≈ 4.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 75°

Opposite side to reference angle = 17

Adjacent side = x

Applying TOA:

Tan 75 = opp/adj

Tan 75 = 17/x

Multiply both sides by x

x*Tan 75 = 17

Divide both sides by Tan 75

x = 17/Tan 75

x ≈ 4.6

Explain how the identity property in the problem, 2/3 (1) = 1 (2/3) = 2/3, is the same with any rational number. ANSWER FAST PLE

Morgarella [4.7K]

First of all, the identity property of multiplication (which is what this is I'm assuming) is that the number 1 multiplied by any other number is that number itself. (An example would be 2 multiplied by 1, which would be two) So in this problem, this rule applies too, since 2/3 multiplied by 1 would be 2/3!

Hope this helped :)

Which equation shows the quadratic formula used correctly to solve 5x2 + 3x – 4 = 0 for x? x = StartFraction negative 3 plus-or-

Brrunno [24]

Answer: FIRST OPTION

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The missing picture is attached.</h3>

By definition, given a Quadratic equation in the form:

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

Where "a", "b" and "c" are numerical coefficients and "x" is the unknown variable, you caN use the Quadratic Formula to solve it.

The Quadratic Formula is the following:

$x=\frac{-b \±\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

In this case, the exercise gives you this Quadratic equation:

$5x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0$

You can identify that the numerical coefficients are:

$a=5\\\\b=3\\\\c= - 4$

Therefore, you can substitute values into the Quadratic formula shown above:

$x=\frac{-b \±\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\\\\x=\frac{-3 \±\sqrt{(3)^2-4(5)(-4)} }{2(5)}$

You can identify that the equation that shows the Quadratic formula used correctly to solve the Quadratic equation given in the exercise for "x", is the one shown in the First option.
