Answer:

$\sec \theta=-\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is $h^2=6^2+3^2$

$h^2=36+9$

$h^2=45$

$h=\sqrt{45}$

$h=3\sqrt{5}$

The terminal side of $\theta$ is in the second quadrant.

In this quadrant; the secant ratio is negative.

$\sec \theta=-\frac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}$

$\sec \theta=-\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3}$

$\sec \theta=-\sqrt{5}$

Find the solution of 3 times the square root of the quantity of x plus 6 equals negative 12, and determine if it is an extraneou

Anna35 [415]

For this case we have the following equation:
$3 \sqrt{x+6}=-12$
Rewriting we have:
$\sqrt{x+6}= \frac{-12}{3}$
$\sqrt{x+6}=-4$
We raise both members of the equation to the square:
$(\sqrt{x+6})^2=(-4)^2$
Rewriting we have:
$x+6=16$
$x=16-6$
$x=10$
It's a extraneous solution because equality is not met by substituting x = 10 in the original equation:
$3 \sqrt{10+6}=-12$
$3 \sqrt{16}=-12$
$3(4)=-12$
$12=-12$
Answer:
The solution is:
$x=10$
It's a extraneous solution

Answer: A add the equations and C: Subtract the bottom equation from the top equation.

Step-by-step explanation: By adding the equations, you are left with

12x=8 which successfully eliminates the y values and subracting the bottom equation from the top equation.

Hope this helps! :)

Forth degree trinomial because we have a number that’s to the exponent of four and we have 3 terms.

Anthony will be competing in a body building competition in 12 months. he initially weighs 160 pounds and by the end of 12 month

padilas [110]

He starts out with the weight of 160, at the end of those 12 months he weighs 232. if you subtract 160 and 232 the approximate rate of change should be 72
