Answer:

90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question

On Mr. Hunt's desk, a cup of coffee is cooling down. Its cooling can be described by the equation T=70(0.80)^x+20, where x represents time in minutes and T denotes the temperature in degrees Celsius. WHAT IS THE STARTING temperature of the coffee

To find the starting temperature, we set x = 0

Plug x = 0 into the formula;

T=70(0.80)^x+20

T =70(0.80)^0+20

Recognizing that any number raised to the power of zero equals 1, we have;

T = 70(1)+20

T = 70+20

T = 90 degrees Celsius

Thus, the starting temperature of the coffee is 90 degrees

How many solutions does the equation sin(5x) = 1/2 have on the interval (0, 2PI]
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

Sin(5x) = ½

5x = arcSin(½)

5x = 30°

Then,

The general formula for sin is

5θ = n180 + (-1)ⁿθ

Dividing throughout by 5

θ = n•36 + (-1)ⁿ30/5

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

The solution range is

0<θ<2π which means 0<θ<360

First solution

When n = 0

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿθ

θ = 0×36 + (-1)^0×6

θ = 6°

When n = 1

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36-6

θ = 30°

When n = 2

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×2 + 6

θ = 78°

When n =3

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×3 - 6

θ = 102°

When n=4

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×4 + 6

θ = 150

When n=5

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×5 - 6

θ = 174°

When n = 6

θ = 36n+ (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×6 + 6

θ = 222°

When n = 7

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×7 - 6

θ = 246°

When n =8

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×8 + 6

θ = 294°

When n =9

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×9 - 6

θ = 318°

When n =10

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×10 + 6

θ = 366°

When n = 10 surpasses the θ range

Thus, the solutions range from n =0 to n=9

Therefore, there are 10 solutions within the interval 0<θ<2π

zzz [12365]
A)
4(q - 10) = 76..... Tim earned 4 points for each correct answer, totaling 76 points. He got 10 answers right less than the total number of questions on the test.

b)
q = 10 + 76/4
q = 29

Thus, the overall number of questions on Tim's math test amounted to 29.
