Throughout all of these steps I'm only going to alter the left hand side (LHS). I am NOT going to change the right hand side (RHS) at all.

Before I change the LHS of the original equation, let's focus on the given identity
cot^2(x) + 1 = csc^2(x)

Since we know it's an identity, we can subtract 1 from both sides and the identity would still hold true
cot^2(x) + 1 = csc^2(x)
cot^2(x) + 1-1 = csc^2(x)-1
cot^2(x) + 0 = csc^2(x)-1
cot^2(x) = csc^2(x)-1

So we'll use the identity cot^2(x) = csc^2(x)-1

---------------------------------------------

Now onto the main equation given

cot^2(x) + csc^2(x) = 2csc^2(x) - 1
cot^2(x) + csc^2(x) = 2csc^2(x) - 1 .... note the term in bold
csc^2(x)-1 + csc^2(x) = 2csc^2(x) - 1 .... note the terms in bold
[ csc^2(x) + csc^2(x) ] - 1 = 2csc^2(x) - 1
[ 2csc^2(x) ] - 1 = 2csc^2(x) - 1
2csc^2(x) - 1 = 2csc^2(x) - 1

The bold terms indicate how the replacements occur.

So the original equation has been proven to be an identity because the LHS has been altered to transform into the RHS

Firstly find two coordinates that lie on the line, we have (0,6) and (8,10).

Slope= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (10-6)/(8-0)
= 4/8
= 1/2

The answer is B

Kevin is looking for a job as a graphic designer. One ad lists a job that pays 64.6K. Another job he found has a weekly salary o
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The difference between the two weekly salaries is $122

Step-by-step explanation:

One job pays $64,600 per year. Since there are 52 weeks in a year, the weekly salary for this job is the quotient: $64600/52 = $1242.31 which rounded to the nearest dollar gives: $1242 per week

The other job pays $1120 per week. Therefore the difference in weekly salary for the two is:

$1242 - $1120 = $122
