The ratio of cos Z is cos Z = 3 / 5

<h3>How to find the trigonometric ratios of a right triangle?</h3>

A right triangle has one angle of the triangle as 90 degrees.

The sides of the right triangle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

Therefore,

sin ∅ = opposite / hypotenuse

sin Z = 3 / 5

Using Pythagoras theorem,

c² = a² + b²

5² - 3² = b²

b² = 25 - 9

b² = 16

b = √16

b = 4

Hence,

P + A = 90 degrees (complementary angles)

Therefore,

sin P = cos Z

cos Z = 3 / 5

Select the correct answer. Which equation, when solved, gives 8 for the value of x?

Rus_ich [418]

The 3rd equation, as if you solve for x as shown, you will end up with equation x=8.

$\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{3}{2}x=-4+2$

$\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{6}{4}x=-2$

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

$x=8$

What is (f−g)(x)?

Oxana [17]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(f-g)(x)==3x^5-2x^4-x^2+x-21}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\\\\text{We have}\\\\f(x)=3x^5+6x^2-5\\\\g(x)=2x^4+7x^2-x+16\\\\\text{substitute:}\\\\(f-g)(x)=(3x^5+6x^2-5)-(2x^4+7x^2-x+16)\\\\=3x^5+6x^2-5-2x^4-7x^2+x-16\\\\\text{combine like terms}\\\\=3x^5-2x^4+(6x^2-7x^2)+x+(-5-16)\\\\=3x^5-2x^4-x^2+x-21$
