Smaller Number = X
5x - 23 = Larger Number

X + (5x - 23) = 61
6x - 23 = 61
6x = 84
X = 14

4. Which expression is equivalent to sin(50)º?

jasenka [17]

Answer:

cos(400)

Step-by-step explanation:

Useful things:

Cofunction identity: sin(x)=cos(90-x)

Sine and cosine have period of 360 degrees.

So sin(50)=cos(40) by cofunction identity.

Since cosine has period of 360 degrees then cos(40)=cos(360+40).

That simplifies to cos(400).

I need help showing steps to solve 36v-12=12

Ad libitum [116K]

36v - 12 = 12 .....add 12 to both sides
36v - 12 + 12 = 12 + 12...simplify
36v = 24...divide both sides by 36
(36/36)v = 24/36
v = 2/3 <===

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

2. $\sqrt{-128}$ Just find the prime factors of 128 and simplify

$\sqrt{-2^{7}} = \sqrt{-2^{6} 2} = 2^{3}i \sqrt{2}$

$8i\sqrt{2}$

3.- $\sqrt{-9} + \sqrt{-16}$ Get the square roots and simplify

3i + 4i

4.- None of the choices is equal to one, because the exponents are pair.

5.- 1/3x² + 10 = 7

1/3x² = 7 - 10

1/3x² = -3

x² = -3(3)

x² = -9

x = ±3i
