Your teacher asked you to represent 3 more than 8 multiplied by a number t as an expression. You wrote 3 + 8t, and your friend w

rote 11t.
Are both answers the same? If not, then who is correct? Can a verbal description of a mathematical situation like the one the teacher presented have more than one correct interpretation? Explain.

Both answers are not the same. You are correct and your friend is wrong. The situation your teacher gave could have only one other interpretation that would be acceptable and that would be 8t+3 because it is the same number just in a different order.

Answer: (3.5,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, all we have to do is plug in y=-2 into either equations from step one to find the coordinate. To make sure we have the right x-coordinate, let's plug in y for both equations.

4x-7y=28        [plug in y=-2]

4x-7(-2)=28    [multiply]

4x+14=28       [subtract both sides by 14]

4x=14              [divide both sides by 4]

x=3.5

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

6x-5y=31        [plug in y=-2]

6x-5(-2)=31    [multiply]

6x+10=31       [subtract both sides by 10]

6x=21             [divide both sides by 6]

x=3.5

Now, we know the solution to the system is (3.5,-2).

Find the exact value of cot 7pi/4 & sec13pi/6 including quadrant location
Gennadij [26K]
First we will convert those radian angles to degrees, since my mind works better with degrees.  Let's work one at a time.  First, \frac{7 \pi }{4} * \frac{180}{ \pi }=315.  If we start at the positive x-axis and measure out 315 we end up in the 4th quadrant with a reference angle of 45 with the positive x-axis.  The side across from the reference angle is -1, the side adjacent to the angle is 1, and the hypotenuse is sqrt2.  The cotangent of this angle, then is 1/-1 which is -1.  As for the second one, converting radians to degrees gives us that \frac{13 \pi }{6} * \frac{180}{ \pi } =390.  Sweeping out that angle has us going around the origin more than once and ending up in the first quadrant with a reference angle of 30° with the positive x-axis.  The side across from the angle is 1, the side adjacent to the angle is √3, and the hypotenuse is 2.  Therefore, the secant  of that angle is 2/√3.

What is the value of x that makes the given equation true?
Doss [256]
Hello there!

The correct answer is C

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

x - 3x = 2(4 + x)
Distribute the right side
x - 3x = (2)(4)+(2)(x)
x - 3x = 8 + 2x
Combine like terms
x - 3x - 2x = 8
-4x = 8
Divide both sides by -4
-4x/4 = 8/4
x = -2

Hence,
The correct answer is c
