Sub in given values to get 2 equations.

a + b \cos(2*0) = -1 \rightarrow a+b = -1 \\  \\ a+b \cos(2*\frac{\pi}{2}) = 7 \rightarrow a - b = 7

Solve system using elimination.  Add the equations together, cancelling out 'b'
2a = 6 \\  \\ a = 3

Sub into first equation to get value for 'b'
3+b = -1 \\  \\ b = -4

If (6y − 11)(6y 11) = ay^2 − b, what is the value of a? the value of a is ____________.
Triss [41]
(6y - 11)(6y + 11) = ay² - b    |use (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

(6y)² - 11² =ay² - b

36y² - 121 = ay² - b    |add b to both sides

ay² = 36y² - 121 + b        |divide both sides by y² ≠ 0

a = (36y² - 121 + b)/y²

\boxed{a=\dfrac{36y^2-121+b}{y^2}}
