<h3>Hello there!</h3>

In this question, we have to turn the given information into function notation.

Function notation is f(x) = (expression)

From the information given, we know that:

Earns $15 each hour
Gets a $25 bonus

Now, we turn it into an equation.

We would write the equation as y = mx + b

m = rate

x = hours

b = bonus

This means that our equation would be:

y = 15x + 25

Now, we can write it as a function notation.

f(x) = 15x + 25

<h3>Answer: f(x) = 15x + 25</h3><h3>I hope this helps!</h3><h3>Best regards,</h3><h3>MasterInvestor</h3>

Complete the identity.<br> 1) sec^4 x + sec^2 x tan^2 x - 2 tan^4 x = ?

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Question like this are better answered if there are list of options; However, I'll simplify as far as the expression can be simplified</em>

Given

$sec^4 x + sec^2 x tan^2 x - 2 tan^4 x$

Required

Simplify

$(sec^2 x)^2 + sec^2 x tan^2 x - 2 (tan^2 x)^2$

Represent $sec^2x$ with a

Represent $tan^2x$ with b

The expression becomes

$a^2 + ab- 2 b^2$

Factorize

$a^2 + 2ab -ab- 2 b^2$

$a(a + 2b) -b(a+ 2 b)$

$(a -b) (a+ 2 b)$

Recall that

$a = sec^2x$

$b = tan^2x$

The expression $(a -b) (a+ 2 b)$ becomes

$(sec^2x -tan^2x) (sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x)$

..............................................................................................................................

In trigonometry

$sec^2x =1 +tan^2x$

Subtract $tan^2x$ from both sides

$sec^2x - tan^2x =1 +tan^2x - tan^2x$

$sec^2x - tan^2x =1$

..............................................................................................................................

Substitute 1 for $sec^2x - tan^2x$ in $(sec^2x -tan^2x) (sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x)$

$(1) (sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x)$

Open Bracket

$sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x$ ------------------This is an equivalence

$(secx)^2+ 2 (tanx)^2$

Solving further;

................................................................................................................................

In trigonometry

$secx = \frac{1}{cosx}$

$tanx = \frac{sinx}{cosx}$

Substitute the expressions for secx and tanx

................................................................................................................................

$(secx)^2+ 2 (tanx)^2$ becomes

$(\frac{1}{cosx})^2+ 2 (\frac{sinx}{cosx})^2$

Open bracket

$\frac{1}{cos^2x}+ 2 (\frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x})$

$\frac{1}{cos^2x}+ \frac{2sin^2x}{cos^2x}$

Add Fraction

$\frac{1 + 2sin^2x}{cos^2x}$ ------------------------ This is another equivalence

................................................................................................................................

In trigonometry

$sin^2x + cos^2x= 1$

Make $sin^2x$ the subject of formula

$sin^2x= 1 - cos^2x$

................................................................................................................................

Substitute the expressions for $1 - cos^2x$ for $sin^2x$

$\frac{1 + 2(1 - cos^2x)}{cos^2x}$

Open bracket

$\frac{1 + 2 - 2cos^2x}{cos^2x}$

$\frac{3 - 2cos^2x}{cos^2x}$ ---------------------- This is another equivalence

What is the value of x in 34 + 2x = 40

alekssr [168]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Discussion:

34 + 2x = 40 => subtract 34 from both sides

(34-34) + 2x = 40 - 34 => as (34-34) = 0 and 40-34 = 6

2x = 6 => divide both sides by 2

x = 6/2 = 3

Check the answer:

Does 34 + 2x = 40 if x = 3 ?

Does 34 + 2(3) = 40 ?

Does 34 + 6 = 40 ? YES! so the answer checks.

Thank you,

MrB

Does anyone know how to find this I'm studying and me and my family don't understand! I only need help on #17

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi so basically you just convert the inches to decimals so

0.5 x 0.5 x 0.25 = 0.0625

Use a calculator to convert 0.0625 into fraction which is $\frac{1}{16}$

Multiply $\frac{1}{4}$ by 3 = $\frac{1}{64}$

Then multiply $\frac{1}{16}$ by $\frac{1}{64}$ = 4

Soo that was probably very confusing, but I hope it helps! :)

Plz click the Thanks button, I rrly appreciate it!
