Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

17x + -12 = 114 + 3x

Reorder the terms:

-12 + 17x = 114 + 3x

Solving

-12 + 17x = 114 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 17x + -3x = 114 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 17x + -3x = 14x

-12 + 14x = 114 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

-12 + 14x = 114 + 0

-12 + 14x = 114

Add '12' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 12 + 14x = 114 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0

0 + 14x = 114 + 12

14x = 114 + 12

Combine like terms: 114 + 12 = 126

14x = 126

Divide each side by '14'.

x = 9

Use your understanding of the symmetry of the sine and cosine functions to determine the value of tan(−theta) for all

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

$tan(-\theta)=-tan\theta$

Odd function

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$tan(-\theta)$

We have to determine the value of $tan(-\theta)$ and find tangent function is odd,even or neither.

$tan(-\theta)=\frac{sin(-\theta)}{cos(-\theta)}$

$tan\theta=\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta}$

We know that

$sin(-\theta)=-sin\theta$

$cos(-\theta)=cos\theta$

By using identities

Then, we get

$tan(-\theta)=\frac{-sin\theta}{cos\theta}=-tan\theta$

$tan(-\theta)=-tan\theta$

Odd function: If $f(-x)=-f(x)$

Even function:If $f(-x)=f(x)$

$tan(-\theta)=-tan\theta$

Therefore, function is an odd function.

What was the difference in the starting temperature and the ending temperature

igomit [66]

Answer:

You subtract the final temperature from the starting temperature to find the difference. So if something starts at 50 degrees Celsius and finishes at 75 degrees C, then the change in temperature is 75 degrees C – 50 degrees C = 25 degrees C. For decreases in temperature, the result is negative.

Step-by-step explanation: really not sure how to explain but in my understood thats my answer

John has a spinner with eight equal sectors with labels from 1 to 8. he spins the spinner once. what is the probability that he

azamat

Answer:

3/32

Step-by-step explanation:

Labels from 1 to 8:

The probability that he gets a number less than 4 (1, 2, 3) is 3/8

The probability to get a multiple of 4 (4, 8) is 2/8 = 1/4

The probability that he gets a number less than 4 or a multiple of 4:

= 3/8 x 1/4

= 3/32
