If cot x=v3, calculate (sin x)(cos x)-cos²x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]sin(x)\,cos(x)-cos^2(x)=\frac{\sqrt{3} -3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the Pythagorean identity for cotangent:

[tex]1+cot^2(x)=csc^2(x)[/tex]

where the cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine function. So, since we know the value of the cotangent of the angle, we can derive the value of the square of the sine:

[tex]1+cot^2(x)=csc^2(x)\\1+(\sqrt{3})^2=\frac{1}{sin^2(x)} \\1+3=\frac{1}{sin^2(x)} \\4=\frac{1}{sin^2(x)}\\sin^2(x)=\frac{1}{4}\\ sin(x)=+/-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

We can also use the Pythagorean identity for sin and cos, to find the value of [tex]cos^2(x)[/tex] and of cos(x):

[tex]cos^2(x)=1-sin^2(x)\\cos^2(x)=1-\frac{1}{4} \\cos^2(x)=\frac{3}{4}\\cos(x)=+/-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

We also notice that since the cotangent is positive, the angle "x" must be located in either the firs or the third quadrant, where both sine and cosine have the same sign (both positive in the first quadrant, and both negative in the third quadrant.

Then the requested quantity can be written as:

[tex]sin(x)\,cos(x)-cos^2(x)=(\frac{1}{2}) \,\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} -\frac{3}{4} =\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} -\frac{3}{4}=\frac{\sqrt{3}-3 }{4}[/tex]

If BE is a diameter of the circle, find
MAB
A. 400
B 50°
C. 75
D 80

Answers

Answer:

B 50˚

Step-by-step explanation:

What you want to do is to find all other measures and subtract them from 360, or find all measures to the left of BE, and subtract from 180.

You can find mCE easily: since the measure of an arc is twice the measure of its corresponding angle (as long as that angle is not a central angle), mCE = 2(25), or 50˚.

mDE equals 100˚. This is because it and arc BD are the only arcs right of BE, the diameter, meaning they, together, must equal half the circle. Since half a circle = 180˚,

180˚=80˚+x

x=180-80

x=100

Now, you can solve:

Method 1:

360˚=80˚+80˚+50˚+100˚+x

360-80-80-50-100=x

x=50˚

Method 2:

180˚=80˚+50˚+x

x=180-80-50

x=50˚

This corresponds to answer choice B.

Answer:

B.

Gabrielle went on a 72 mile trip to a soccer game. On the way back, due to road construction she had to drive 18 miles per hour slower. This made the trip take 9 hours longer. How fast did she drive to the soccer game?

Answers

Answer:

Gabrielle drove to the soccer game at the speed of 18 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Distance covered = 72 miles

On the way back, she had to drive 18 miles per hour slower due to road construction which made the trip take 9 hours longer.

To find: speed

Solution:

Let speed be x miles/hour

Time taken = distance covered/time taken = [tex]\frac{72}{x}[/tex]  hours

On the way back, she had to drive 18 miles per hour slower due to road construction

So, new speed = ( x - 18 ) miles/hour

Time taken as per new speed = [tex]\frac{72}{x-18}[/tex]  hours

According to question,

[tex]\frac{72}{x-18}-\frac{72}{x}=9\\\frac{1}{x-18}-\frac{1}{x}=\frac{9}{72}\\\frac{x-x+18}{x(x-18)}=\frac{1}{8}\\x^2-18x-144=0\\x^2-24x+6x-144=0\\x(x-18)+6(x-18)=0\\(x-18)(x+6)=0\\x=18\,,\,-6[/tex]

Being a speed, x can not be negative. So, [tex]x=-6[/tex] is rejected

So,

Gabrielle drove to the soccer game at the speed of 18 miles/hour

Answers

Answer:

1000000/8025 = 40000/321 (simplified)

1000/9596

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there,

There is an alternative way to do this....

First it is important to understand what a reciprocal is. The reciprocal of any number x is the number 1/x. The reciprocal of a number is also its multiplicative inverse, which means that the number times its reciprocal must equal 1. For a number such as 2, the reciprocal would be 1/2. For a fraction such as 2/5, the reciprocal would be 5/2.

Finding the reciprocal of a decimal can be done in a number of ways.

Change the decimal to a fraction first.

Ex. 0.25 is 25/100 and is equivalent to the fraction 1/4. Therefore Its reciprocal would be 4/1 or 4.

Keep the decimal and form the fraction 1/?? which can then be or converted to a decimal.

Ex. 0.75 The reciprocal is 1/0.75. Using a calculator, the decimal form can be found by performing the operation: 1 divided by 0.75. The decimal reciprocal in this case is a repeating decimal, 1.33333....

After finding a reciprocal of a number, perform a quick check by multiplying your original number and the reciprocal to determine that the product is 1:

(0.25)(4) = 1.00

(0.75)(1.33....) = 1 but it is easier to see for sure with repeating decimals if you use the fractions instead of the decimals.

(3/4)(4/3) = 12/12 = 1

how many squares would have to be shaded so that 1/6 of the shape is shaded?

Answers

Answer:

3 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

The question given is not complete, the diagram of the shape is supposed to be attached. But I would provide you with a diagram and show you how to solve this type of problem.

The diagram of the shape is attached below. Firstly, you have to count the number of squares in the shape. As it can been seen from the diagram, there are a total 18 squares (i.e 6 squares on each row × 3 squares on each column).

Secondly you have to find 1/6 of the total number of the squares in the shape. 1/6 of the total number of the square in the shape = 1/6 × 18 = 3 squares

Therefore 3 squares would have to be shaded so that 1/6 of the shape is shaded

A teacher has a 2-gallon (32-cup) container of juice. She gives each student a 1/2 cup of juice. Which equation represents the amount of juice that remains, y, after x students are served? a. y = 32x - 1/2 b. y = 1/2x - 32 c. y = -1/2 x + 32 d. y = -32 x + 1/2 WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR GOOD EXPLANATION

Answers

Answer:

total cup = 32

1 student = 1/2 cup

find remaining cup = y

*we don't know how many students are there, so we just let it be x .

remaining cup = total cup - cup drank by students

y = 32 - 1/2x

y = -1/2x + 32 ( option c )

why 1/2x ? because we don't know how many students drank the juice, so we just let it be x .

L+S = 17 3L + 2S=46
Please show your work

Answers

Answer:

S= 5, L= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of L and S, we need to first label the 2 equations.

L +S= 17 -----(1)

3L +2S= 46 -----(2)

From (1):

L= 17 -S -----(3) (-S on both sides)

Subst. (3) into (2):

3(17-S) +2S= 46

3(17) -3S +2S= 46 (expand)

51 -S= 46

-S= 46 -51 (-51 on both sides)

-S= -5

S= 5 (divide by -1 throughout)

Subst. S=5 into (3):

L= 17 -5

L= 12

Direct variation: if y = 4, when x = -2, find x when y = 6

Answers

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when y is 4, x is 4/-2 = -2

So when y is 6,

x= 6/-2

= -3

-3 because when y is two then x is -1 so if you multiply both values by 3 then y is 6 and x is -3

15x - 5y = 30 in slope intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

15x - 5y = 30

Subtract 15x from each side

15x-15x - 5y =-15x+ 30

-5y = -15x+30

Divide each side by -5

-5y/-5 = -15x/-5 +30/-5

y = 3x - 6

Answer:

[tex]y = 3x - 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]15x - 5y = 30 \\ - 5y = 30 - 15x \\ \frac{ - 5y}{ - 5} = \frac{30 - 15x}{ - 5} \\ y = - 6 + 3x \\ y = 3x - 6[/tex]
