Which word phrase describes the algebraic expression x - 16.5?

Answer:

  x less 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

"x -16.5" means 16.5 is subtracted from x. The resulting value is 16.5 less than x. The wording "x less 16.5" basically means "x minus 16.5" and/or "x reduced by 16.5".

__

Subtraction is not commutative, so "16.5 decreased (or reduced) by x", meaning "16.5 -x" or "16.5 minus x", is not the same thing.

Prove the identity.
Delvig [45]

Answer:

D. Pythagorean

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the identity

cos²x - sin²x = 2 cos²x - 1.

To show that the identity is true, we need to show that the left hand side is equal to right hand side or vice versa.

Starting from the left hand side

cos²x - sin²x ... 1

According to Pythagoras theorem, we know that x²+y² = r² in a right angled triangle. Coverting this to polar form, we have:

x = rcostheta

y = rsintheta

Substituting into the Pythagoras firnuka we have

(rcostheta)²+(rsintheta)² = r²

r²cos²theta+r²sin²theta = r²

r²(cos²theta+sin²theta) = r²

(cos²theta+sin²theta) = 1

sin²theta = 1 - cos²theta

sin²x = 1-cos²x ... 2

Substituting equation 2 into 1 we have;

= cos²x-(1-cos²x)

= cos²x-1+cos²x

= 2cos²x-1 (RHS)

This shows that cos²x -sin²x = 2cos²x-1 with the aid of PYTHAGORAS THEOREM

40pts and a brainliest to the person who answers this question with detailed explanations and steps to solve shown.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

y = 7 sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp/ hyp

sin 45 = 7/y

y sin 45 = 7

y = 7/ sin 45

y = 7 / (1/sqrt(2) )

y = 7 sqrt(2)
