X = 6y - 3
x + y = 53

6y - 3 + y = 53
7y - 3 = 53
7y = 53 + 3
7y = 56
y = 56/7
y = 8

x = 6y - 3
x = 6(8) - 3
x = 48 - 3
x = 45

ur numbers are : 8 and 45

Choose the expression that represents a quadratic expression. 9x − 2 5x2 + 9x − 1 −2x3 + 8x2 − 7x + 1 x4 − 12x3 + 8x2 − 7x + 1

Answer:

$5 {x}^{2} + 9x - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic expresion is of the form

$a {x}^{2} + bx + c$

where

$a \ne0$

The give options are:

$9x-2$

$5{x}^{2}+9x - 1$

$-2x^3+8 {x}^{2} -7x +1$

$x^4-12x^3+8 {x}^{2} -7x +1$

From the given options, the only expression which is quadratic is

$5 {x}^{2} + 9x - 1$

where a =5, b=9 and c=-1

Therefore the correct choice is the second option.

If cos⁡ x=−45, and 180° < x < 270°, what is tan⁡(2x)?

iVinArrow [24]

$Tan2x =\frac{-24}{7}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , cos x = -4/5 ( corrected as given -45 which is not possible ) ,

180° < x < 270° i.e. in third quadrant . We need to find tan⁡(2x) . Let's find out:

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{sin\alpha }{cos\alpha }$

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{\sqrt{1-(cos\alpha)^2} }{cos\alpha }$

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{\sqrt{1-(\frac{-4}{5})^2} }{\frac{-4}{5} }$

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{-5}{4}\sqrt{1-(\frac{16}{25}) }$

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{-5}{4}\sqrt{(\frac{25-16}{25}) }$

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{-5}{4}(\frac{3}{5}) }$

⇒ $Tan\alpha = \frac{-3}{4}$ , since in third quadrant . $Tan\alpha = \frac{-3}{4}$ remains same .

Now , $Tan2x = \frac{2tanx}{1-(tanx)^{2}}}$

⇒ $Tan2x = \frac{2tanx}{1-(tanx)^{2}}}$

⇒ $Tan2x = \frac{2(\frac{-3}{4})}{1-(\frac{-3}{4})^{2}}}$

⇒ $Tan2x = \frac{-3}{2}(\frac{16}{7})$

⇒ $Tan2x =\frac{-24}{7}$

Therefore, $Tan2x =\frac{-24}{7}$ .
