A function is something that lets you work out what something is depending a variable


e.g: x = y + 5


this function states that the unknown x is equal to whatever the variable y is plus 5

Solve the equation for the interval [0, 2pi). 2sin^2x = sin x
notsponge [240]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

2\sin^2(x)=\sin(x)

For the interval [0, 2π).

First, we can move all the terms to one side. Start off by subtracting sin(x) from both sides:

2\sin^2(x)-\sin(x)=0

We can factor:

\sin(x)\left(2\sin(x)-1\right)=0

By the Zero Product Property:

\sin(x)=0\text{ or } 2\sin(x)-1=0

Solve for each case:

\displaystyle \sin(x)=0\text{ or } \sin(x)=\frac{1}{2}

Use the unit circle to solve:

\displaystyle x=\left\{0, \frac{\pi}{6},\frac{5\pi}{6}, \pi\right\}

Hence, our answer is A.

*Please note that we should not simply divide both sides by sin(x) to acquire 2sin(x) = 1. The problem with the operation is that we are dividing by sin(x), yet we do not know what the value of x is. Thus, one or more values of x may result in sin(x) = 0, and we cannot divide by 0. Hence, we are required to subtract and then factor, unless the question specifically states that sin(x) ≠ 0.

Is this statement true or false? If two lines are intersected by a transversal so that the alternate interior angles are congrue
Ahat [919]
If you are given a pair of alternate interior angles that are congruent, then the two lines cut by the transversal are parallel. Below the two angles shown are congruent and they are alternate interior angles; therefore, we can say that a ll b.

Factor the trinomial. p2 - 4p - 5<br> What is the a, b and c?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

(p - 5)(p + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p² - 4p - 5

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 5) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 4)

The factors are - 5 and + 1 , since

- 5 × + 1 = - 5 and - 5 + 1 = - 4, then

p² - 4p - 5 = (p - 5)(p + 1) ← in factored form

The standard form of a trinomial is

ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

p² - 4p - 5 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = - 4 and c = - 5
