3 0

Answer:

f = -5, s = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

F= first number

S= second number

4f - s = -14

f + 3s = -23

3(4f - s = -14)

12f - 3s = -42

+ f + 3s = -23

13f = -65

————

13

f = -5

4f - s = -14

4(-5) - s = -14

-20 - s = -14

+20 +20

-s = 6

———

-1

s = -6

Prove identity trigonometric equation
irina [24]

Explanation:

The given equation is False, so cannot be proven to be true.

__

Perhaps you want to prove ...

  2\tan{x}=\dfrac{\cos{x}}{\csc{(x)}-1}+\dfrac{\cos{x}}{\csc{(x)}+1}

This is one way to show it:

  2\tan{x}=\cos{(x)}\dfrac{(\csc{(x)}+1)+(\csc{(x)}-1)}{(\csc{(x)}-1)(\csc{(x)}+1)}\\\\=\cos{(x)}\dfrac{2\csc{(x)}}{\csc{(x)}^2-1}=2\cos{(x)}\dfrac{\csc{x}}{\cot{(x)}^2}=2\dfrac{\cos{(x)}\sin{(x)}^2}{\cos{(x)}^2\sin{(x)}}\\\\=2\dfrac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}\\\\2\tan{x}=2\tan{x}\qquad\text{QED}

__

We have used the identities ...

  csc = 1/sin

  cot = cos/sin

  csc^2 -1 = cot^2

  tan = sin/cos

Help me pleasee!!!!!!!!!!!!
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1, 2, and 3 are supplementary (they add up to equal 180). If angles 1 and 3 are 20 each, then their sum in 40, making angle 2

180 - 40 = 140. If this central angle is 140 degrees, then the measure of the arc that it cuts off also measures 140 degrees. This is not to be confused with the arc length, which is not even remotely the same thing!

Does it take fewer steps to determine the solution to the system of equations using elimination substitution? What is the soluti
nignag [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that one equation has -2y and the other has +2y. The fastest solution is to add the equations together. The two  terms will cancel out, eliminating the y terms.
