Answer:

The Total number of people were surveyed is 1,350 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total number of people who preferred walking = 540 people

The percentage of people who preferred walking to running = 40% of the total people

Let The Total number of people were surveyed = n people

<u>Now, According to question</u>

The total number of people who preferred walking = 40% of the total number of people were surveyed

Or, 40% of n = 540

Or, \dfrac{40}{100} × n = 540

Or, n = \frac{540\times 100}{40}

∴ n = 1350

So,Total number of people were surveyed = n = 1350 people

Hence,The Total number of people were surveyed is 1,350 people. Answer

Answer:

  {-1, 1/2, 2/3, 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

I find a graphing calculator to be a most useful tool for problems like this. (See attached.)

_____

First of all, observe that the constant is -2, so 0 is not a zero.

It is often useful to look at the sum of coefficients. Here, that is 0, indicating 1 is a zero.

You can divide that out, or simply continue by looking at the sum of coefficients with odd-degree terms negated. Then you have 6 +7 -4 -7 -2 = 0, indicating -1 is also a zero.

__

At this point, it can be useful to divide out the factors you know. The synthetic division tableaus attached show that work. First is division by (x+1), then by (x -1).

The result of doing that is the quadratic ...

  6x^2 -7x +2 = 0

This can be factored ...

  (6x^2 -3x) -(4x -2) = 0 . . . . . . rewrite -7x and group term pairs

  3x(2x -1) -2(2x -1) = 0 . . . . . . . factor each pair

  (3x -2)(2x -1) = 0 . . . . . . the factorization of the remaining quadratic

The zeros of this are the values of x that make the factors zero: 2/3 and 1/2.

The zeros of the given function f(x) are x ∈ {-1, 1/2, 2/3, 1}.

Sin^2x/cos^2 + sinxcscx = sec^2x Identify it, please explain so I know how you did it, thanks
max2010maxim [7]

\frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} + sin x *cscx\\ tan^2x + \frac{sin x}{sin x} \\ tan^2x + 1\\ sec^2x

\frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} = tan^2x

csc x = \frac{1}{sinx}

tan^2x + 1 = sec^2x
