Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

note that (f - g) = f(x) - g(x)

f(x) - g(x) = 3x² + 1 - (1 - x) = 3x² + 1 - 1 + x = 3x² + x

To evaluate (f - g)(2) substitute x = 2 into f(x) - g(x)

(f - g)(2) = 3(2)² + 2 = (3 × 4) + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14

Verify the identity 6cos^2(x) -3 = 3 - 6sin^2(x)

Lorico [155]

Answer:

It is proved that $6\cos ^{2}x -3 = 3 - 6\sin ^{2} x$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We already have the identity of x as $\sin ^{2}x + \cos ^{2}x = 1$ .......... (1) .

So, from equation (1) we can write that

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

⇒ $6\cos ^{2} x = 6 - 6 \sin ^{2} x$

⇒ $6\cos ^{2} x -3 = 6 - 6 \sin ^{2}x -3$

⇒ $6\cos ^{2}x -3 = 3 - 6\sin ^{2} x$

Hence, it is proved that $6\cos ^{2}x -3 = 3 - 6\sin ^{2} x$ . (Answer)

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: $x^{-a} = \frac{1}{x^a}$

a. $4^{-3} = \frac{1}{4^3} = \frac{1}{64}$

b. $13^{-2} = \frac{1}{13^2} = \frac{1}{169}$

c. $(-3)^{-2} = \frac{1}{-3^2} = \frac{1}{9}$
