E. 1/2
With trig functions, multiple x values correspond with the same y value.
Using an initial x value (the principle value), we can find other x values for the same y value, this is what we are are being asked to find in this question.
There are slightly different ways to find these x values (also known as solutions) for each of the basic trig functions.
The x values are in degrees for the basic trig functions.
For cosine, the rule is as follows:
360 - principle value;
this will give what I, personally, like to think of as a secondary principle value (this value is not actually recognised as a secondary principle value, I just like to think of it as such). Anyway, all other solutions can the be found by adding or substrating any integer multiple of 360 to/from the PV and 'secondary PV'.

For your question:
cos60 = 1/2
60 is the x value (PV)
so...
360 - 60 = 300 is the 'secondary PV'
Just to be clear, this means that if I were to find the cos300, I would get 1/2.

That is sufficient for explaining the answer to this particular question but if you wanted to find any other solution, you would just have to do either:
60 + or - n(360)
or...
300 + or - n(360),
where n = any integer

An English professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 14% of scores B: Scores below the
NeX [460]

Answer:

Grades between 62 and 64 result in a D grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 71.9, \sigma = 7.8

Find the numerical limits for a D grade.

D: Scores below the top 84% and above the bottom 10%

So below the 100-84 = 16th percentile and above the 10th percentile.

16th percentile:

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.16. So X when Z = -0.995.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-0.995 = \frac{X - 71.9}{7.8}

X - 71.9 = -0.995*7.8

X = 64

10th percentile:

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So X when Z = -1.28.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.28 = \frac{X - 71.9}{7.8}

X - 71.9 = -1.28*7.8

X = 62

Grades between 62 and 64 result in a D grade.

Describe order of operation and give an example
ryzh [129]

Order of Operation is commonly referred to as PEMDAS, an acronym for "Please excuse my dear aunt Sally," which references the order in which operations should  be calculated when solving a math problem.

P = parentheses

E = exponent

M = multiply

D = divide

A = add

S = subtract

So you don't always have all of these components, but you consider the ones present in the problem in front of you.    If there is no multiplication, but there is division and a set of parentheses, then you FIRST solve what's inside the parentheses, then  you divide.    If you have some examples, I'll show you.
