Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Think you it in fraction form. 2/1 and 4/2.

4/2 can be simplified, so you divide it by 2 giving you 2/1.

Making it 2/1 =2/1 or 2:1 = 2:1

So yes 2:1 = 4:2.

(1-sinx+cosx)^2 = 2(1+sinx)(1+cosx)​
bogdanovich [222]

If you're trying to establish an identity, the given equation is not an identity. The proper identity would be as follows:

(1 - sin(<em>x</em>) + cos(<em>x</em>))² = (1 - sin(<em>x</em>))² + 2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) cos(<em>x</em>) + cos²(<em>x</em>)

… = (1 - 2 sin(<em>x</em>) + sin²(<em>x</em>)) + 2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) cos(<em>x</em>) + cos²(<em>x</em>)

… = 2 - 2 sin(<em>x</em>) + 2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) cos(<em>x</em>)

… = 2 - 2 sin(<em>x</em>) + 2 cos(<em>x</em>) - 2 sin(<em>x</em>) cos(<em>x</em>)

… = 2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>) + cos(<em>x</em>) - sin(<em>x</em>) cos(<em>x</em>))

… = 2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>) + cos(<em>x</em>) (1 - sin(<em>x</em>)))

… = 2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>))

But if you're trying to solve an equation:

(1 - sin(<em>x</em>) + cos(<em>x</em>))² = 2 (1 + sin(<em>x</em>)) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>))

2 (1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>)) = 2 (1 + sin(<em>x</em>)) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>))

(1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>)) - (1 + sin(<em>x</em>)) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>)) = 0

(1 + cos(<em>x</em>)) (1 - sin(<em>x</em>) - 1 - sin(<em>x</em>)) = 0

-2 sin(<em>x</em>) (1 + cos(<em>x</em>)) = 0

sin(<em>x</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   1 + cos(<em>x</em>) = 0

sin(<em>x</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>x</em>) = -1

[<em>x</em> = arcsin(0) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = arcsin(0) + <em>π</em> + 2<em>nπ</em>]   <u>or</u>

… [<em>x</em> = arccos(-1) + 2<em>nπ</em>]

We have arcsin(0) = 0 and arccos(-1) = <em>π</em>, so the solution set reduces to

<em>x</em> = 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = (2<em>n</em> + 1)<em>π</em>

(where <em>n</em> is any integer)

A carpenter wishes to make a ladder with 15 cross-pieces.The cross-pieces are to diminish uniformly in Lengths from 67cm at the
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

<u>52 cm</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1st piece (from bottom) = 67 cm

15th piece = 32 cm

a = 67

a₁₅ = a + 14d = 32

14d = 32 - 67

d = -35/14

d =-5/2

d = -2.5

a₇ = a + 6d

= 67 + 6(-2.5)

= 67 - 15

= <u>52 cm</u>

Given a graph for the transformation of f(x) in the format g(x) = f(kx), determine the k value. two parabolas open up with f of
Sloan [31]

Answer:

I believe that the answer is k=4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because in order for a new function to be narrower than its parent function, the absolute value of k must be greater than 1 (k > 1), and for a new function to open in the same direction as its parent function, it must be positive, that leaves with only four as our answer.

Factor completely and then place the factors in the proper location on the grid.<br> x2 + 13x + 36
Alexxandr [17]

1. x^2 + 13x + 36 = 0  

using powerful & time-sparing quadratic formula :  

delta = 13^2 - 4*1*36 = 25 = 5^2  

x1 and x2 = (-13 -/+ 5)/2 = -9 and -4  

x^2 + 13x + 36 = (x+9)(x+4)  

2. other way : complete the square  

b^2 + 12b + 32 = b^2 + 2*6b + 6^2 - 6^2 + 32  

b^2 + 12b + 32 = (b+6)^2 - 4  

b^2 + 12b + 32 = (b+6-2)(b+6+2) = (b+4)(b+8)  

3. other way : -4 "ovious" solution : (-4)^2 - (-4) -20 = 0  

so the other is : -4 . a2 = -20/1 ---> a2 = 5  

a^2 - a - 20 = (a-5)(a+4)
