Answer:
-16/65
Step-by-step explanation:
Given sinα = 3/5 in quadrant 1;
Since sinα = opp/hyp
opp = 3
hyp = 5
adj^2 = hyp^2 - opp^2
adj^2 = 5^2 = 3^2
adj^2 = 25-9
adj^2 = 16
adj = 4
Since all the trig identity are positive in Quadrant 1, hence;
cosα = adj/hyp = 4/5
Similarly, if tanβ = 5/12 in Quadrant III,
According to trig identity
tan theta = opp/adj
opp = 5
adj = 12
hyp^2 = opp^2+adj^2
hyp^2 = 5^2+12^2
hyp^2 = 25+144
hyp^2 = 169
hyp = 13
Since only tan is positive in Quadrant III, then;
sinβ = -5/13
cosβ = -12/13
Get the required expression;
sin(α - β) = sinαcosβ - cosαsinβ
Substitute the given values
sin(α - β) = 3/5(-12/13) - 4/5(-5/13)
sin(α - β)= -36/65 + 20/65
sin(α - β) = -16/65
Hence the value of sin(α - β) is -16/65
10 is your answer because it is a terminating or repeating decimals
Answer:
The absolute value of -3 1/2 is 3 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value of a number is its distance from 0.
In this case the absolute value of -3 1/2 is 3 1/2.
Another way to write is I-3 1/2I

Answer:
x ≈ -4.419
Step-by-step explanation:
Separate the constants from the exponentials and write the two exponentials as one. (This puts x in one place.) Then use logarithms.
0 = 2^(x-1) -3^(x+1)
3^(x+1) = 2^(x-1) . . . . . add 3^(x+1)
3×3^x = (1/2)2^x . . . . .factor out the constants
(3/2)^x = (1/2)/3 . . . . . divide by 3×2^x
Take the log:
x·log(3/2) = log(1/6)
x = log(1/6)/log(3/2) . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
x ≈ -4.419

A graphing calculator is another tool that can be used to solve this. I find it the quickest and easiest.

<em>Comment on alternate solution</em>
Once you get the exponential terms on opposite sides of the equal sign, you can take logs at that point, if you like. Then solve the resulting linear equation for x.
(x+1)log(3) = (x-1)log(2)
x=(log(2)+log(3))/(log(2)-log(3))
