What is (-8)to the power of 2 equal??

2 answers:

7 0

Hello!

(-8)^2 means -8 x (-8).

The answer to this would simply be:
-8 x (-8) = 64

Because a negative number is being multiplied by another negative number, the answer becomes a positive number.

I hope this helps you! Have a great day!

Hello, precalc, need help on finding csc

Ainat [17]

Recall the double angle identity for cosine:

$\cos(2x) = \cos^2(x) - \sin^2(x) = 1 - 2 \sin^2(x)$

It follows that

$\sin^2(x) = \dfrac{1 - \cos(2x)}2 \implies \sin(x) = \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{1-\cos(2x)}2} \implies \csc(x) = \pm \sqrt{\dfrac2{1-\cos(2x)}}$

Since 0° < 22° < 90°, we know that sin(22°) must be positive, so csc(22°) is also positive. Let x = 22°; then the closest answer would be C,

$\csc(22^\circ) = \sqrt{\dfrac2{1-\cos(44^\circ)}} = \sqrt{\dfrac2{1-\frac5{13}}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{13}}2$

but the problem is that none of these claims are true; cot(32°) ≠ 4/3, cos(44°) ≠ 5/13, and csc(22°) ≠ √13/2...

12 is 15% of what?<br> HELP

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Write down the equation: (15 / 100) * x = 12

Solve for x: x = 12 / (15 / 100)

x = (12 * 100) / 15

or, x = 80

Hope this helps!
