6cos x-6sin x=3.sqrt6

1 answer:

7 0

Divide by 6
$cos x - sin x = \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}$

Square both sides
$cos^2 x -2 sin x cos x + sin^2 x = \frac{3}{2}$

Simplify Left side using Trig identities: (Pythagorean, Double Angle)
$1 - sin (2x) = \frac{3}{2}$

Solve for x:
$sin (2x) = -\frac{1}{2} \\ \\ 2x = \frac{7 \pi}{6}, \frac{11 \pi}{6} \\ \\ x = \frac{7 \pi}{12}, \frac{11 \pi}{12}$

$\cfrac{7x^{-\frac{3}{2}} ~~ y^{\frac{5}{2}} ~~ z^{-\frac{2}{3}}}{56 x^{-\frac{1}{2}} ~~ y^{\frac{1}{4}}}\implies \cfrac{7}{56}\cdot \cfrac{y^{\frac{5}{2}} ~~ y^{-\frac{1}{4}}}{x^{-\frac{1}{2}} ~~ x^{\frac{3}{2}} ~~ z^{\frac{2}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8}\cfrac{y^{\frac{5}{2}-\frac{1}{4}}}{x^{-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{2}}~~ z^{\frac{2}{3}}}$

$\cfrac{y^{\frac{9}{4}}}{8x z^{\frac{2}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[4]{y^9}}{8x\sqrt[3]{z^2}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[4]{y (y^2)^4}}{8x\sqrt[3]{z^2}}\implies \cfrac{y^2 \sqrt[4]{y}}{8x\sqrt[3]{z^2}}$
