Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0,2π) sec(theta) +2=0

I will first reveal the most obvious secret of trig: Most of the problems are 30/60/90 or 45/45/90 triangles of some sort.

\sec \theta + 2  = 0

\dfrac{1 }{ \cos \theta} = -2

\cos \theta = - \frac 1 2

The rule to remember is \cos x = \cos a has solutions

x = \pm a + 2 \pi k \quad integer k

Continuing where we left off, a cosine of -1/2 is a 30/60/90 triangle in the second or third quadrant; we pick second, and a little thought tells us the angle is  120^\circ.

\cos \theta = - \frac 1 2

\cos \theta = \cos \frac {2\pi} 3

\theta = \pm \frac {2\pi} 3 + 2 \pi k \quad integer k

In the range we want, that's k=0 with the plus sign and k=1 with the minus, so 

\theta = \frac {2\pi} 3 or -\frac {2\pi} 3 + 2 \pi = \frac{4 \pi} 3

\theta = \frac {2\pi} 3 or \frac{4 \pi} 3

adelina 88 [10]

The population parameters that describe the y-intercept and slope of the line relating y and x are β₀ and β₁ respectively.

<h3>What is a population model?</h3>

A population model can be represented by the equation:

\mu_y=\beta_1x + \beta_o

Where μy is the population mean, β₀ is the y intercept and β₁ is the slope of the line

The population parameters that describe the y-intercept and slope of the line relating y and x are β₀ and β₁ respectively.

Stells [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Students use algebra to solve equations (of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers); using techniques of making zero (adding the additive inverse) and making one (multiplying by the multiplicative inverse) to solve for the variable.

Students identify and compare the sequence of operations used to find the solution to an equation algebraically, with the sequence of operations used to solve the equation with tape diagrams. They recognize the steps as being the same.

Students solve equations for the value of the variable using inverse operations; by making zero (adding the additive inverse) and making one (multiplying by the multiplicative inverse).
