<span>A. y=secx
This problem deals with the various trig functions and is looking for those points where they are undefined. Since the only math operations involved is division, that will happen with the associated trig function attempts to divide by zero. So let's look at the functions that are a composite of sin and cos.
sin and cos are defined for all real numbers and range in value from -1 to 1.
sin is zero for all integral multiples of pi, and cos is zero for all integral multiples of pi plus pi over 2. So the functions that are undefined will be those that divide by cos.
tan = sin/cos, which will be undefined for x = π/2 ±nπ
cot = cos/sin, which will be undefined for x = ±nπ
sec = 1/cos, which will be undefined for x = π/2 ±nπ
csc = 1/sin, which will be undefined for x = ±nπ
Now let's look at the options and pick the correct one.
A. y=secx
* There's a division by cos, so this is the correct choice.
B. y=cosx
* cos is defined over the entire domain, so this is a bad choice.
C. y=1/sinx
* The division is by sin, not cos. So this is a bad choice.
D. y=cotx,
* The division is by sin, not cos. So this is a bad choice.</span>
Factor x as it is a common factor;
x(8+3)
=11x
1) 6x-7y=-11
2) x=-2
3) y=-4x+1
4) y-5=3(x-1)
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The table shows the total number of students as 572 (bottom right cell in the table.)
The number of students who are 17 or older are the students in the two groups: 17-18 and 19-20.
There are 151 students with ages 17-18.
There are 34 students with ages 19-20.
The total of all students 17 or older is 151 + 34 = 185.
The probability of choosing a student age 17 or older is the number of students 17 or older (which is 185) divided by the total number of students (which is 572).
p(17 or older) = 185/572 = 0.3234 = 32.34%
We round 32.34% to the nearest integer to get 32%.
