A)
Health inspector: 7, 14, 21, 28
Fire inspector: 12, 24, 36, 48

B) To answer this question you simply need to find the least common multiple(LCM). First look for the factor for 7(health inspector) and 12(fire inspector)
7= 1x7
12= 2 x 2 x 3

Since there is no common factor, you can simply multiply both number to find LCM: 7x12 day= 84 days.

Find sin2x, cos2x, and tan2x if sinx=-15/17 and x terminates in quadrant III

vodka [1.7K]

Given:

$\sin x=-\dfrac{15}{17}$

x lies in the III quadrant.

To find:

The values of $\sin 2x, \cos 2x, \tan 2x$ .

Solution:

It is given that x lies in the III quadrant. It means only tan and cot are positive and others are negative.

We know that,

$\sin^2 x+\cos^2 x=1$

$(-\dfrac{15}{17})^2+\cos^2 x=1$

$\cos^2 x=1-\dfrac{225}{289}$

$\cos x=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{289-225}{289}}$

x lies in the III quadrant. So,

$\cos x=-\sqrt{\dfrac{64}{289}}$

$\cos x=-\dfrac{8}{17}$

Now,

$\sin 2x=2\sin x\cos x$

$\sin 2x=2\times (-\dfrac{15}{17})\times (-\dfrac{8}{17})$

$\sin 2x=-\dfrac{240}{289}$

And,

$\cos 2x=1-2\sin^2x$

$\cos 2x=1-2(-\dfrac{15}{17})^2$

$\cos 2x=1-2(\dfrac{225}{289})$

$\cos 2x=\dfrac{289-450}{289}$

$\cos 2x=-\dfrac{161}{289}$

We know that,

$\tan 2x=\dfrac{\sin 2x}{\cos 2x}$

$\tan 2x=\dfrac{-\dfrac{240}{289}}{-\dfrac{161}{289}}$

$\tan 2x=\dfrac{240}{161}$

Therefore, the required values are $\sin 2x=-\dfrac{240}{289},\cos 2x=-\dfrac{161}{289},\tan 2x=\dfrac{240}{161}$ .

From the set {6, 7, 11}, use substitution to determine which value of x makes the equation true.

kotykmax [81]

11 if you multiply 11 by both the number and and the variable you’ll get 11x-55=66. Add 55 to each side which will give you 121 then divide that by 11
