What is the value of x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you know that the sides are congruent.

AC: 3x + 6

AB: 6x - 3

BC: 5x

So, here is the equation you can set up:

3x + 6 = 6x -3 = 5x

You can't really solve an equation with 3 equal signs, so break it up:

3x + 6 = 6x - 3

     +3          +3

3x + 9 = 6x

-3x         -3x

9 = 3x

/3     /3

3 = x

Now see if it works:

3x + 6 = 6x -3 = 5x

plug in x (or 3)

3(3) + 6 = 6(3) -3 = 5 (3)

9 + 6 = 18 - 3 = 15

15 = 15 = 15

So, yes!

x = 3

Find the values of x in [0,360) which satisfy 2cot^2x=-3cscx
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The values of x is -30 degrees and undefined

None of these values fall within the given range

Thus, no value within the given range is the solution to the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of x that works for the equation in the selected range

2cot^2x = -3csc x

Mathematically, from trigonometry;

cot^2x = csc^2x - 1

Substitute this above

2(csc^2x - 1)= -3csc x

let csc x = b

2(b^2-1) = -3b

2b^2 - 2 + 3b = 0

2b^2 + 3b - 2 = 0

2b^2 + 4b - b - 2 = 0

2b(b+ 2) - 1( b + 2) = 0

(2b-1)(b + 2) = 0

2b = 1

b = -2

b = 1/2 = 0.5

or b = -2

Recall;

csc x = b

x = csc^-1 b

x = csc^-1 0.5

x = undefined

Secondly;

b = -2

x = csc^-1 (-2)

x = -30 degrees

As we can see , between the points

0 ≤ x < 360

None of our answers fall in these range

For the following graph, determine if the graph represents a polynomial function. If it is a polynomial function, then determine
tankabanditka [31]

Using function concepts, it is found that the correct option is given by:

a.Yes, this graph represents a polynomial. There are two turning points and the least degree possible is three.

<h3>What is the least degree possible of a polynomial?</h3>

Supposing a polynomial with n turning points, the least possible degree is of n + 1.

In this problem, the polynomial has 2 turning points, hence the least possible degree is of 3 and option a is correct.
