The answer should be cos2x
Answer:
[tex]\cos^2x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is:
[tex](\cos x)(\sec x)-\sin^2 x[/tex]
Recall form Pythagorean Identity that;
[tex]\sec x=\frac{1}{\cos x}[/tex]
We apply this property to obtain;
[tex](\cos x)(\frac{1}{\cos x})-\sin^2 x[/tex]
We simplify to get;

Recall from the Pythagorean identity that;
[tex]1-\sin^2 x=\cos^2x[/tex]
1) Given: mLHE=84°
Find: m∠EYL.
2)Given: m∠EYL=72°
Find: m arc EHL, m arc LVE
Answer:
Part 1) The measure of angle EYL is [tex]96\°[/tex]
Part 2) The measure of arc EHL is [tex]108\°[/tex] and the measure of arc LVE is [tex]252\°[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The measurement of the outer angle is the semi-difference of the arcs which comprises
Part 1)
Let
x------> the measure of arc LHE
y----> the measure of arc LVE
we know that
[tex]x+y=360\°[/tex]
[tex]x=84\°[/tex]
Find the value of y
[tex]y=360\°-84\°=276\°[/tex]
Find the measure of angle EYL
[tex]m<EYL=\frac{1}{2} (y-x)[/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]m<EYL=\frac{1}{2}(276\°-84\°)=96\°[/tex]
Part 2)
Let
x------> the measure of arc EHL
y----> the measure of arc LVE
we know that
[tex]x+y=360\°[/tex]
[tex]x=360\°-y[/tex] -----> equation A
[tex]m<EYL=72\°[/tex]
[tex]m<EYL=\frac{1}{2} (y-x)[/tex]
substitute
[tex]72\°=\frac{1}{2} (y-x)[/tex]
[tex]144\°=(y-x)[/tex]
[tex]x=y-144\°[/tex] --------> equation B
equate equation A and equation B and solve for y
[tex]360\°-y=y-144\°[/tex]
[tex]2y=360\°+144\°[/tex]
[tex]2y=504\°[/tex]
[tex]y=252\°[/tex]
Find the value of x
[tex]x=252\°-144\°=108\°[/tex]
therefore
The measure of arc EHL is [tex]108\°[/tex]
The measure of arc LVE is [tex]252\°[/tex]
A circle is a curve sketched out by a point moving in a plane. The measure of the arcEHL and arcLVE are 108° and 252° respectively.
What is a circle?A circle is a curve sketched out by a point moving in a plane so that its distance from a given point is constant; alternatively, it is the shape formed by all points in a plane that are at a set distance from a given point, the centre.
As we can see in the image attached below, the radius of the circle is OE and OL while there is two tangent to the circle Ey and LY. Therefore, the measure of the ∠OEY and ∠OLY is 90°.
A.)
The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
As it is mentioned in the problem the measure of the angle made by arc LHE is 84° which means the measure of ∠EOL is 84°. Therefore, the sum of all the angles can be written as,
[tex]\text{Sum of angles} = 360^o\\\\\angle OEY + \angle OLY + \angle EOL + \angle EYL = 360^o\\\\90^o+90^o+84^o +\angle EYL = 360^o\\\\\angle EYL = 96^o[/tex]
B.)
The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
As it is mentioned in the problem the measure of ∠EYL is 72°. Therefore, the sum of all the angles can be written as,
[tex]\text{Sum of angles} = 360^o\\\\\angle OEY + \angle OLY + \angle EOL + \angle EYL = 360^o\\\\90^o+90^o+ \angle EOL +72^o = 360^o\\\\ \angle EOL= 108^o\\\\ \rm arc EHL=108^o[/tex]
Since a complete circle measures 360°, therefore, the sum of the angles made by arc EHL and arc LVE can be written as,
arcEHL + arcLVE = 360°
108° + arcLVE = 360°
arcLVE = 252°
Thus, the measure of the arcEHL and arcLVE are 108° and 252° respectively.

Consider the following function. f(x) = 9 − x2/3 Find f(−27) and f(27). f(−27) = f(27) = Find all values c in (−27, 27) such that f '(c) = 0. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) c = Based off of this information, what conclusions can be made about Rolle's Theorem? This contradicts Rolle's Theorem, since f is differentiable, f(−27) = f(27), and f '(c) = 0 exists, but c is not in (−27, 27). This does not contradict Rolle's Theorem, since f '(0) = 0, and 0 is in the interval (−27, 27). This contradicts Rolle's Theorem, since f(−27) = f(27), there should exist a number c in (−27, 27) such that f '(c) = 0. This does not contradict Rolle's Theorem, since f '(0) does not exist, and so f is not differentiable on (−27, 27). Nothing can be concluded.
I guess the function is [tex]f(x)=9-x^{2/3}[/tex]. Then [tex]f(-27)=0[/tex] and [tex]f(27)=0[/tex].
The derivative is [tex]f'(x)=-\dfrac23 x^{-1/3}[/tex], but there is no [tex]c[/tex] such that
[tex]-\dfrac23c^{-1/3}=0[/tex]
This doesn't contradict Rolle's theorem because [tex]f'(0)[/tex] does not exists. In other words, [tex]f[/tex] is not differentiable on (-27, 27), so the conditions of Rolle's theorem are not met. (Looks like that would be the last option, or the second to last option if the last one is "Nothing can be concluded")
The function f(x) = 9 - x²/3 is even, and its derivative f'(c) equals to zero at c=0, which lies within the interval (-27, 27). Therefore, it does not contradict Rolle's theorem.
Explanation:The function in question is f(x) = 9 - x²/3. When we substitute x with -27 and 27, we get f(-27) = 9 - ((-27)²/3) = -243 and f(27) = 9 - (27²/3) = -243. This confirms that the function is even as f(-27) = f(27).
To find the critical values, we'll take the derivative of the function, which gives us f'(x) = -2x/3. We set f '(c) = 0, solving for c, and determine c = 0. Rolle's Theorem states that if a function is continuous on a closed interval [a, b], differentiable on the open interval (a, b), and f(a) = f(b), then there exists at least one c in the interval (a, b) such that f '(c) = 0. With f(-27) = f(27) and the derivative proving to be zero at c=0 (which is inside the interval (-27,27)) this does not contradict Rolle's theorem.

The result is (f/g)(x) = (4x² + 6x) / (2x² + 13x + 15).
To find (f/g)(x) for the given functions f(x) = 4x² + 6x and g(x) = 2x² + 13x + 15, you need to divide the function f(x) by g(x).
Step-by-Step Solution:
Write down the functions: f(x) = 4x² + 6x and g(x) = 2x² + 13x + 15.Express the division of these two functions: (f/g)(x) = (4x² + 6x) / (2x² + 13x + 15).Simplify the expression if possible by factoring the numerator and the denominator.In this case, neither the numerator nor the denominator can be factored further in a way that simplifies the fraction: 4x² + 6x and 2x² + 13x + 15 do not have common factors.Thus, the simplest form of (f/g)(x) is: (f/g)(x) = (4x² + 6x) / (2x² + 13x + 15).Therefore, (f/g)(x) stands as (4x² + 6x) / (2x² + 13x + 15).

First, rearrange the equation into slope intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. You get y = -5x + 4. This means the y-intercept is 4.
For this case we have a function of the form [tex]y = f (x)[/tex]
Where:
[tex]f (x) = 4-5x[/tex]
To find the y-intercept of the function we must do x = 0.
Then, replacing:

a ball is thrown with a slingshot at a velocity of 110ft/sec at an angle of 20 degrees above the ground from a height of 4.5 ft. approximentaly how long does is take for the ball to hit the ground. Acceleration due to gravity is 32ft/s^2
Answer:
[tex]t=2.47\ s[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that models the height of the ball in feet as a function of time is
[tex]h(t) = h_0 + s_0t -16t ^ 2[/tex]
Where [tex]h_0[/tex] is the initial height, [tex]s_0[/tex] is the initial velocity and t is the time in seconds.
We know that the initial height is:
[tex]h_0 = 4.5\ ft[/tex]
The initial speed is:
[tex]s_0 = 110sin(20\°)\\\\s_0 = 37.62\ ft/s[/tex]
So the equation is:
[tex]h (t) = 4.5 + 37.62t -16t ^ 2[/tex]
The ball hits the ground when when [tex]h(t) = 0[/tex]
So
[tex]4.5 + 37.62t -16t ^ 2 = 0[/tex]
We use the quadratic formula to solve the equation for t
For a quadratic equation of the form
[tex]at^2 +bt + c[/tex]
The quadratic formula is:
[tex]t=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
In this case
[tex]a= -16\\\\b=37.62\\\\c=4.5[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]t=\frac{-37.62\±\sqrt{(37.62)^2 -4(-16)(4.5)}}{2(-16)}[/tex]
[tex]t_1=-0.114\ s\\\\t_2=2.47\ s[/tex]
We take the positive solution.
Finally the ball takes 2.47 seconds to touch the ground

Answer:
• x = -4, x = 0, x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
x is a factor of all terms, so x=0 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 1 and 5.)
The sum of coefficients is 0, so x=1 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 3 and 4.)
Reversing the sign of the odd-degree terms gives signs of -++, so there is one sign change, hence one negative real root (by Descartes' rule of signs). This confirms choice 2 as the answer.

Answer:
rate of the plane in still air is 33 miles per hour and the rate of the wind is 11 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We will make a table of the trip there and back using the formula distance = rate x time
d = r x t
there
back
The distance there and back is 264 miles, so we can split that in half and put each half under d:
d = r x t
there 132
back 132
It tells us that the trip there is with the wind and the trip back is against the wind:
d = r x t
there 132 = (r + w)
back 132 = (r - w)
Finally, the trip there took 3 hours and the trip back took 6:
d = r * t
there 132 = (r + w) * 3
back 132 = (r - w) * 6
There's the table. Using the distance formula we have 2 equations that result from that info:
132 = 3(r + w) and 132 = 6(r - w)
We are looking to solve for both r and w. We have 2 equations with 2 unknowns, so we will solve the first equation for r, sub that value for r into the second equation to solve for w:
132 = 3r + 3w and
132 - 3w = 3r so
44 - w = r. Subbing that into the second equation:
132 = 6(44 - w) - 6w and
132 = 264 - 6w - 6w and
-132 = -12w so
w = 11
Subbing w in to solve for r:
132 = 3r + 3(11) and
132 = 3r + 33 so
99 = 3r and
r = 33
The graph of the function y = cos(2x) is shown below.
Answer:D pie
Step-by-step explanation:
You get 2pie/2 cancel out you get pie
The period of y=cos(2x) is π, so the frequency is 1/π.
The key features of the graph are:
Amplitude: The amplitude of the graph is 1, which means the function oscillates between −1and 1.
Period: The period of the graph is π, which means the function completes one cycle every πunits on the x -axis. This is because the frequency of the function is 2, which means it completes two cycles for every 2π units on the x -axis.
Midline: The midline of the graph is y=0. This is because the function is neither shifted up nor down.
Extrema: The graph has maxima at x=2kπ for any integer k, and minima at x=2(2k+1)πfor any integer k.
The graph of the function y=cos(2x). The frequency of a trigonometric function is the reciprocal of its period. The period of y=cos(2x) is π, so the frequency is 1/π.

Explain why x = 3 makes 4x − 1 ≤ 11 true but not 4x − 1 < 11.
In technical translation, 4 x 3 - 1 is less than or equal to 11 (it's equal). 4 x 3 - 1 < 11 is not true because 11 is not less than 11.
Hope this helps!
Explaining why x = 3 satisfies 4x − 1 ≤ 11 but not 4x − 1 < 11:
When x = 3, we can evaluate the inequalities:
For 4x − 1 ≤ 11: 4(3) - 1 ≤ 11, which simplifies to 12 ≤ 11, making it true.
For 4x − 1 < 11: 4(3) - 1 < 11, which simplifies to 12 < 11, making it false.
Therefore, when x = 3, the first inequality is true while the second one is false.

If x = 1 then
y > 1 + 5
7 > 6
Answer:
(1 , 7) is a solution of y > IxI + 5 ⇒ answer B
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise the absolute value
- IxI = positive value
- IxI can not give negative value
- The value of x could be positive or negative
* Lets solve the problem
∵ y > IxI + 5
∴ y > x + 5 OR y > -x + 5
- Lets check the answers
∵ y > 0 + 5 ⇒ y > 5
- But y = 5, and 5 it is not greater than 5 and there is no difference
between the two cases because zero has no sign
∴ (0 , 5) not a solution
∵ y > 1 + 5 ⇒ y > 6
- Its true y = 7 and 7 is greater than 6
∵ y > -1 + 5 ⇒ y > 4
- Its true y = 7 and 7 is greater than 4
∴ (1 , 7) is a solution
∵ y > 7 + 5 ⇒ y > 12
- But y = 1 and 1 is not greater than 12
∵ y > -7 + 5 ⇒ y > -2
- Its true y = 1 and 1 is greater than -2
* we can not take this point as a solution because it is wrong
with one of the two cases
∴ (7 , 1) is not a solution

Derive the quadratic formula from the standard form (ax2 + bx + c = 0) of a quadratic equation by following the steps below.
1. Divide all terms in the equation by a.
2. Subtract the constant (the term without an x) from both sides.
3. Add a constant (in terms of a and b) that will complete the square.
4. Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
5. Solve for x.
Answer:
The result is the well-known quadratic formula: x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the standard form quadratic equation:
ax² +bx +c = 0
1. Divide by a
x² +(b/a)x +(c/a) = 0
2. Subtract the constant
x² +(b/a)x = -(c/a)
3. Complete the square
x² +(b/a)x + (b/(2a))² = (b/(2a))²-(c/a)
(x +b/(2a))² = (b²-4ac)/(2a)²
4. Take the square root
x +b/(2a) = ±√(b²-4ac)/(2a)
5. Subtract the constant on the left to get x by itself
x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
Final answer:
The quadratic formula, which provides the solution to the standard quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0, is derived through a series of algebraic manipulations, including dividing by a, completing the square, taking the square root, and solving for x.

Divide all terms by a: x² + (b/a)x + (c/a) = 0.Subtract c/a from both sides to isolate the x terms: x² + (b/a)x = -c/a.Add the square of half the coefficient of x to both sides to complete the square: (b/2a)². Now the equation is x² + (b/a)x + (b/2a)² = (b/2a)² - c/a.Take the square root of both sides: x + (b/2a) = ±√(b² - 4ac)/2a.Solving for x leads to the quadratic formula: x = (-b ± √(b²- 4ac))/(2a).Two tracking stations are on the equator 148 miles apart. A weather balloon is located on a bearing of N41°E from the western station and on bearing of N21°E From the eastern station. How far is the balloon from the western station? Round to the nearest mile from the nearest station. A 404 mil B 382 mi C 413 mil D 373 mi
Answer:
A 404 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
If we designate the points of the triangle A, B, and C for the locations of the western station, eastern station, and balloon, respectively, we have the following:
∠CAB = 90° - 41° = 49°
∠CBA = 90° + 21° = 111°
∠ACB = 41° -21° = 20°
side "c" (opposite ∠ACB) is 148 miles
The distance we're asked to find is AC = b, the longest side of the triangle. The law of sines tells us ...
b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
b = c·sin(B)/sin(C) = (148 mi)·sin(111°)/sin(20°) ≈ 403.98 mi ≈ 404 mi
Using trigonometry and the law of sines, the distance from the balloon to the western station is approximately 373 miles.
Explanation:This is a problem involving trigonometry, particularly the use of the law of sines. The two tracking stations and the balloon form a triangle. The angle at the western station is 41°, the angle at the eastern station is (180 - 21 - 41) = 118°, and the distance between the two stations (the side opposite to the 41° angle) is 148 miles. According to the Law of Sines, the ratio of each side of the triangle to the sine of its opposite angle is constant. Thus, we can set up the equation sin(41°) / x = sin(118°) / 148 miles, where x represents the distance from the balloon to the western station. Solving for x gives us approximately 373 miles.
