The distributive property "distributes" a number through all numbers/terms in a set of parentheses by multiplication.
EXAMPLES
Equivalent expressions are the first and last steps. The middle step just shows the work.
5(2 + 3x)= (5*2) + (5*3x)= 7 + 15x
4(2x + 4y)= (4*2x) + (4*4y)= 8x + 16y
10(4x + 5)= (10*4x) + (10*5)= 40x + 50
ANSWER:
Only one pair below is needed for your answer.
5(2 + 3x)= 7 + 15x
4(2x + 4y)= 8x + 16y
10(4x + 5)= 40x + 50

<span>cos 2x + sqrt(2) sinx=1
</span><span>
Note that: cos 2x = cos^2x - sin^2x = (1-sin^2x) - sin^2x = 1 - 2sin^2x.
So, when alternatively written, you have the following equation:
</span>- 2sin^2x + sqrt(2)sinx + 1 = 1
- 2sin^2x + sqrt(2)sinx = 0
Then, let z=sin(x). So you get,
- 2z^2 + sqrt(2)z = 0
z(- 2z + sqrt(2)) = 0
Either z=0, or - 2z + sqrt(2) = 0 ---> z=sqrt(2)/2.
Then, since z=0 or z=sqrt(2)/2, therefore sin(x)=0, or sin(x)=sqrt(2)/2.
Then, for you remains just to list the angles. (Let me know if this is not fair or if you got questions.)
Answer:
x = 0 or 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving an exponential equation of this nature with different bases and coefficients is always a bit of an ad hoc affair. Here, we can divide by the right side expression and make a substitution that turns it into a quadratic.

<em>Additional comment</em>
A graphing calculator often solves these very nicely, especially when the equation is put into the form f(x) = 0.
It subtracts 1 then 2 then 3
