Evaluate: (5x) expression 2 - 3 if x=2 Help please

1 answer:

4 0

Assuming that you mean 5x(2-3) for your equation, you would just have to plug 2 into where x is. This makes your equation 5*2(2-3). This gives you 10(-1) because 5*2=10, and 2-3=-1. Then simply multiply the two to get:

-10

Hope this helped!

1. Storing milk at temperatures colder than 35°F can affect its quality of taste. However, storing milk at temperatures warmer t

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Part (A): The required inequality is T < 35 or t >40.

Part (B): The correct option is C) Only x=7.

Part (C) |x+1|+5=2 has no solution; |4x+12|=0 has one solution; |3x|=9 has two solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Part (A)

Storing milk at temperatures colder than 35°F can affect its quality of taste. However, storing milk at temperatures warmer than 40°F is an unsafe food practice.

The union is written as A∪B or “A or B”.

The intersection of two sets is written as A∩B or “A and B”

We need to determine the inequalities represent the union of these improper storage.

That means we will use A∪B or “A or B”.

The improper storage temperatures is when temperature is less than 35°F or greater than 40°F.

Hence, the required inequality is T < 35 or t >40.

Part (B) 15| x-7|+4=10|x-7|+4

Solve the inequality as shown below:

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$15| x-7|+4-4=10|x-7|+4-4$

Subtract 10|x-7| from both sides

$5\left|x-7\right|=0\\\left|x-7\right|=0\\x=7$

Hence, the correct option is C) Only x=7.

Part (C) Match the solution,

$\left|x+1\right|+5=2$

Subtract 2 from both sides.

$\left|x+1\right|=-3$

Absolute value cannot be less than 0.

Hence, |x+1|+5=2 has no solution.

$|4x+12|=0$

$4x+12=0$

$x=-3$

Hence, |4x+12|=0 has one solution.

$|3x|=9$

$\mathrm{If}\:|u|\:=\:a,\:a>0\:\mathrm{then}\:u\:=\:a\:\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:u\:=\:-a$

$3x=-9\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:3x=9\\x=-3\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x=3$

Hence, |3x|=9 has two solution.

Find the exact value of cot(15degrees) using half angle formulas?

liubo4ka [24]

Double angle (or half angle, depending how you look at it) identities:

$\cos^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1+\cos x}2$

$\sin^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1-\cos x}2$

$\implies\cot^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{\cos^2\frac x2}{\sin^2\frac x2}=\dfrac{1+\cos x}{1-\cos x}$

So we have

$\cot^215^\circ=\dfrac{1+\cos30^\circ}{1-\cos30^\circ}=\dfrac{1+\frac{\sqrt3}2}{1-\frac{\sqrt3}2}$

$\implies\cot^215^\circ=7+4\sqrt3$

$\implies\cot15^\circ=\sqrt{7+4\sqrt3}=2+\sqrt3$

Note that when taking the square root, we should take into account that that could yield two possible solutions, but we know $\cos15^\circ>0$ and $\sin15^\circ>0$ , so it's also the case that $\cot15^\circ>0$ .
