x-intercept is 6, coordinates (6,0)

y-intercept -4, coordinates (0,-4)

gradient= y1-y2/x1-x2= 0-(-4)/6-0= 4/6= 2/3 or 0.667 (3.s.f.)

Which is the correct way to evaluate the expression 48 - (29-17)

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The correct way to evaluate this expression is my following the order of operations PEMDAS

P=Paranthesis

E=Exponents

M/D=multiply/divide

A/S=add/subtract

The first step in 48-(29-17) is to do what's inside the paranthesis

48-12 (29-17=12)

Then you would subtract 48-12

48-12=36

Your final answer is

Hope this helps ;)

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to {x=8}x=8x, equals, 8 and that passes through the point {(-3,-2)}(−3,−2)left par

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line parallel to x=8 is another vertical line:

x = constant

To make it go through a point with an x-coordinate of -3, the constant must be -3.

Your line is ...

x = -3

Verify identity: <br><br> (sec(x)-csc(x))/(sec(x)+csc(x))=(tan(x)-1)/(tan(x)+1)

Nikitich [7]

So hmmm let's do the left-hand-side first

$\bf \cfrac{sec(x)-csc(x)}{sec(x)+csc(x)}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{cos(x)}-\frac{1}{sin(x)}}{\frac{1}{cos(x)}+\frac{1}{sin(x)}}\implies 
\cfrac{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)sin(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)+cos(x)}{cos(x)sin(x)}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)sin(x)}\cdot \cfrac{cos(x)sin(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}}$

now, let's do the right-hand-side then

$\bf \cfrac{tan(x)-1}{tan(x)+1}\implies \cfrac{\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}-1}{\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}+1}\implies \cfrac{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)+cos(x)}{cos(x)}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)}\cdot \cfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}}$
