Answer:
F. 
Step-by-step explanation:
if you replace x with 2 and plug these into your calculator, you can see that has the least value
The correct question is
Use the given information to find the exact value of the expression. sin α = 21/29, α lies in quadrant II, and cos β = 15/17, β lies in quadrant I Find sin (α - β).
we know that
sin(α − β<span>) = </span>sin α cos β − cos α sin β
α lies in quadrant II
so
cos α is negative
sin α is positive
β lies in quadrant I
so
cos β is positive
sin β is positive
step 1
find sin β
cos β=15/17
sin² β+cos² β=1-----------> sin² β=1-cos² β----> sin² β=1-(15/17)²
sin² β=1-225/289-----> 64/289
sin β=8/17
step 2
find cos α
sin α = 21/29
cos² α + sin² α=1----> cos² α=1-sin² α---> cos² α=1-(21/29)²---> 1-441/841
cos² α=400/841------> cos α=-20/29 (remember cos α is negative)
step 3
find sin(α − β)
sin α = 21/29 cos α=-20/29
sin β=8/17 cos β=15/17
sin(α − β) = [21/29]*[15/17] − [-20/29*]*[8/17]
sin(α − β) = [315/493] − [-160/493]
sin(α − β) = 475/493
the answer is
sin(α − β) = 475/493
Here how I did it and the answer is -6
