True. When the points are plotted on a graph and connected, they pass the vertical line test. No x value is the same.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
11
Discussion:
Let "n" be the smaller number. Then
n * (n+5) = 176.
My first reaction to this problem was to factor 176 in my head. That's 176 = 16 * 11 and 16 is 5 more than 11. So that's the solution!.... Now let's solve it using the brute force approach:
n(n+5) = 176 =>
n^2 + 5n - 176 = 0 => use the quadratic formula
n = ( -5 +\- sqrt( 5^2 - 4(1)(-176)) ) /2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt( 25 + 704) )/ 2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt (729) ) /2 => as sqrt(729) = 27
= (-5 +\- 27) / 2 =>
= (-5 + 27)/2 or ( -5 -27)/2 =>
= 22/2 or -32/2 =>
= 11 or -16
But -16 is not allowed as the question wants a positive value.
Thank you,

Answer:
x=7, so the smaller number is 7 and the larger number is 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
x=3x+5=33
Let x=3:
(3)+3(3)+5=3+9+5=17, not 33, so x is not 3
Let x=5:
(5)+3(5)+5=5+15+5=25, not 33, so x is not 5
Let x=7:
(7)+3(7)+5=7+21+5=33, so x=7
Let x=9:
(9)+3(9)+5=9+27+5=41, not 33, so x is not 9
Therefore x=7. Because x represents the smaller number, and the larger number is 3 times the smaller number, the smaller number is 7 and the larger number is 3(7)=21.
Step-by-step explanation:
We start with Left hand side
We know that csc(x) = 1/ sin(x)
So csc(2x) is replaced by 1/sin(2x)
Also we use identity
sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x)
4 divide by 2 is 2
Now we multiply top and bottom by sin(x) because we need tan(x) in our answer
We know that sinx/ cosx = tan(x)
Also 1/ sin(x)= csc(x)
so it becomes 2csc^2(x) tan(x) , Right hand side
Hence verified
