Answer:

correct answer is second option (The solution of 2cos x + 1 = 0 is x=120^o)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given

2cos x + 1 = 0

2 cos x = -1

therefore,

cos x = -\frac{1}{2}

x =cos^{-1}( -\frac{1}{2})

therefore,

x=120^o

because cos(120)=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore,

The solution of 2cos x + 1 = 0 is x=120^o

Rewrite   <span>2cos x + 1 = 0    as:

2 cos x = -1, and then cos x = -1/2

x must be in Quadrant II or Quadrant III, since the adj. side is negative.

Note that the angle 120 has adj. side -1 and hyp 2.  So 120 degrees is one solution.  

Now what about a possible 2nd solution, to be found in Quadrant III?  That would be -120 degrees, which has the same terminal line as does 240 degrees.

No soap.

So, the solution is 120 degrees.</span>

How many solutions does the equation 9x-3(x+8)=6x-24
Marina86 [1]
Simplifying
9x + -3(x + 8) = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
9x + -3(8 + x) = 6x + -24
9x + (8 * -3 + x * -3) = 6x + -24
9x + (-24 + -3x) = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 9x + -3x = 6x + -24

Combine like terms: 9x + -3x = 6x
-24 + 6x = 6x + -24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 6x = -24 + 6x

Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 6x = -24 + 24 + 6x
6x = -24 + 24 + 6x

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
6x = 0 + 6x
6x = 6x

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
6x + -6x = 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
0 = 0

Solving
0 = 0

On a 8.5 x 11 inches (or larger) paper, create a carnival game (for example it could be: throwing a dart at a target, ball throu
Keith_Richards [23]

The probability of winning the game is 0.065

<h3>The description of the game</h3>

The game involves throwing two darts at two targets.

To win the game, the darts must hit anywhere in the following shapes

  • Rectangle: 5 by 4 inches
  • Circle: Radius, r = 3 inches

<h3>The probability of winning</h3>

The area of the paper is:

Area = 8.5 inches * 11 inches

Area = 93.5 square inches

The area of the rectangle on the paper is:

Area = 5 inches * 4 inches

Area = 20 square inches

The area of the circle on the paper is:

Area = π * (3 inches)²

Area = 28.3 square inches

The probability of landing on both shapes is

P(Both) = 20/93.5 * 28.3/93.5

Evaluate

P(Both) = 0.065

Hence, the probability of winning the game is 0.065

A contractor developed a multiplicative time-series model to forecast the number of contracts in future quarters, using quarterl
dusya [7]

There is a missing content in the question.

After the statements and before the the options given; there is an omitted content which says:

Referring to Table 16-5, in testing the coefficient of X in the regression equation (0.117) the results were a t-statistic of 9.08 and an associated p-value of 0.0000. Which of the following is the best interpretation of this result?

Answer:

C. The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question:

The resulting regression equation can be represented as:

\hat Y = 3.37 + 0.117 X - 0.083 Q_1 + 1.28 Q_2 + 0.617Q_3

where;

the estimated number of contracts in a quarter X is the coded quarterly value with X = 0

the first quarter of 2010 Q1 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the first quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Q2 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the second quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Q3 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the third quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Our null and alternative hypothesis can be stated as;

Null hypothesis :

H_0 :  The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is not  significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

H_a:  The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than 0.05.

From the missing omitted part we added above; we can see that the   t-statistics value = 9.08 and the p-value = 0.000 .

Conclusion:

Thus; we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. i.e

The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)
