The equation for cosine is <span><span><span>cos<span>(x)</span></span>=<span>Adjacent/Hypotenuse
</span></span></span>The inside trig function is <span><span>arccos<span>(<span>3/5</span>)</span></span></span>, which means <span><span><span>cos<span>(x)</span></span>=<span>3/5</span></span></span>. Comparing <span><span><span>cos<span>(x)</span></span>=<span>Adjacent/Hypotenuse</span></span></span> with <span><span><span>cos<span>(x)</span></span>=<span>3/5
</span></span></span>
Find <span><span>Adjacent=3</span></span> and <span><span>Hypotenuse=5.
</span></span>Then, using the Pythagorean theorem, find <span><span>Opposite=?
</span></span>a² = c² - b²
a² = 5² - 3² = 25 - 9 = 16
a = √16 = 4

<span><span>Adjacent=3</span></span><span><span>Opposite=4</span></span><span><span>Hypotenuse=5
</span></span><span>
Plug in the value for sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(x) = 4/5 </span>

How to determine if an expression is rational or irrational?
Neporo4naja [7]
If it is rational, it has a terminating decimal or a repeated decimal number (ex. 56, or 1.25, or 3.666...)

If it is irrational, it is an ongoing number with no pattern (ex. 3.14159265... Which is pi)

F(x) = 2x2 + 12x + 1<br> Determine the vertex
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex would be the highest/lowest point so lets factor this first

when we factor we get

2(x^2+6x+8)

2(x+4) (x+2)

Using zero product property we find the 2 x values and x intercepts are

-4 and -2

the middle point of these points is -3

Substitute -3 for x and solve

2(-3+4) (-3+2)

2 * 1 *  -1

2*-1

-2

(-3,-2) is the vertex

Help! First correct answer gets brainliest ​
lozanna [386]
All you have to do is plug in.

x = 1 , y= 8

3x+5=y

3(1) + 5 = 8

3+5 = 8

8=8

They are both equal, yes. The coordinates work out in the equation. Both sides are equal so the coordinates work. The answer is yes.
