Answer:    -\frac{240}{289}

=========================================================

Explanation:

Use the pythagorean trig identity \sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta) = 1 and plug in the fact that \cos(\theta) = \frac{8}{17}\\\\

Isolating sine leads to \sin(\theta) = -\frac{15}{17}\\\\. I'm skipping the steps here, but let me know if you need to see them.

The result is negative because we're in quadrant 4, when y < 0 so it's when sine is negative.

Therefore,

\sin(2\theta) = 2\sin(\theta)\cos(\theta)\\\\\sin(2\theta) = 2*\left(-\frac{15}{17}\right)*\left(\frac{8}{17}\right)\\\\\sin(2\theta) = -\frac{240}{289}\\\\

5) Using the terms "input" and "output" and the definition of a function, explain why this relationship is or is
Aleks [24]

Answer:

This relationship is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

While a function may not have two output values (y) assigned to the same input value (x), it may have two input values (x) assigned to the output value (y).

The table follows that rule

Rewrite 8x - 7 as the product of two factors
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

factors are any group of number or expressions which, when multiplied, produce another number or expression.

Basic example:  4 can be broken into 2 factors---2 and 2.  2 times 2 = 4

Example using an unknown:

2X + 6 = 2 * (X + 3)

In the given problem, there is no whole-number common factor.  A normal convention would be to factor based on the unknown term----thus 8X is factored into 8 and X.

So:  8X + 7 = 8 ( X + 7/8 )

The following would also be correct:

8X + 7 = 4 ( 2X + 7/4 )
