Which of the following are solutions to the equation sinxcosx = - 1/4

Mathematics

Dafna1 [17]10 months ago
3 0

The equation is given below as

\sin x\cos x=-\frac{1}{4}

Recall that

\begin{gathered} \sin 2x=2\sin xcosx \\ \text{which means that } \\ \frac{\sin2x}{2}=\sin x\cos x \end{gathered}

Therefore, equating the two-equation, we will have

\frac{\sin 2x}{2}=-\frac{1}{4}

cross multiply, we will have

\begin{gathered} \sin 2x=-\frac{1}{4}\times2 \\ \sin 2x=-\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

Therefore,

we will get the arc sign of both sides in radians to get

\begin{gathered} 2x=\sin ^{-1}(-\frac{1}{2}) \\ x=\frac{1}{2}\sin ^{-1}(-\frac{1}{2}) \end{gathered}

In radians, the final answer will be

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{7\pi}{12}+n\pi \\ \text{and} \\ x=\frac{11\pi}{12}+n\pi \end{gathered}

Therefore,

The finals answers are OPTION A and OPTION D

1. The area of the photograph is:
 
 A=LxW
 
 A is the area of the photograph (A=54 in²).
 L is the lenght of the photograph (L=12-4x).
 W is the widht of the photograph (W=12-2x)
 
 2. When you substitute these values into the formula A=LxW, you obtain:
 
 A=LxW
 54=(12-4x)(12-2x)
 
 3. When you apply the distributive property, you have:
 
 54=144-24x-48x+8x²
 8x²-72x+144-54=0
 
 4. Finally, you obtain a quadratic equation for the area of the photo:
 
 8x²-72x+90=0
 
 5. Therefore, the answer is:
 
 8x²-72x+90=0

Nico owns 11 instructional piano books. Two are beginner books, six are intermediate books, and three are advanced books. If two
Leona [35]

The probability that he first chooses an advanced book and then chooses a beginner book is 6/121.

<h3>Probability</h3>

Given:

Beginner book=2

Intermediate book=6

Instructional piano books=11

Advanced books=3

Hence:

Probability=(2×3)÷(11×11)

Probability=6/121

Therefore the probability that he first chooses an advanced book and then chooses a beginner book is 6/121.

The formula for the volume of a sphere is the following:

V= \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3

Plug in V=5000π and solve for the radius.

5000 \pi = \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3

Divide both sides by \pi

5000 = \dfrac{4}{3} r^3

Multiply both sides by 3/4 (to eliminate the 4/3 on the right side)
Also, flip the equation so we have the unknown variable on the left side (math etiquette).

r^3=3750

Take the cube root of both sides

r \approx 15.5

Now, calculate the surface area since now we know the radius.
The formula for the surface area is the following:

S=4 \pi r^2

Plug in r=15.5

S \approx 3033

The second choice is your answer.
