Its C.

If we substitute x=2 and y=-5 into C we get

2(2) = 4 and 15-11 = 4

2(-5) = -10 and 6(2) - 22 = -10

Hello!

First, let's solve the second equation for y.

2y=6x-22

Divide both sides by 2.

y=3x-11

Now we can plug this into the first equation to solve for x.

2x= -3(3x-11)-11

2x=-9x+33-11

2x=-9x+22

Subtract 9x from both sides.

-11x=22

Divide both sides by -11

x=-2

Now we plug this into the simplified version of the second equation.

y= 3(2)-11

y=6-11

y=-5

Therefore, our answer is D. (-2,-5)

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert all the secants and cosecants to cosine and sine, respectively. Recall that $csc(x)=1/sin(x)$ and $sec(x)=1/cos(x)$ .

Thus:

$\frac{sec(x)}{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{csc(x)cos^2(x)}$

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

Let's do the first part first: (Recall how to divide fractions)

$\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos(x)} \cdot \frac{1}{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}$

For the second term:

$\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)} } =\frac{sin(x)}{1} \cdot\frac{sin(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}$

So, all together: (same denominator; combine terms)

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

Note the numerator; it can be derived from the Pythagorean Identity:

$sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1; cos^2(x)=1-sin^2(x)$

Thus, we can substitute the numerator:

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

Everything simplifies to 1.
