Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{3}x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is given in the form $y=mx+b$

Where

m is the slope with formula $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

and

b is the y-intercept [y axis cutting point of line]

Given the two points (0, -2) and (6,0),

x_1 = 0

y_1 = -2

x_2 = 6

y_2 = 0

Now, we find m using formula:

$m=\frac{0+2}{6-0}=\frac{1}{3}$

Now we have

$y=\frac{1}{3}x+b$

Finding b, we plug in any (x,y) point. Lets put (6,0) and find b:

$y=\frac{1}{3}x+b\\0=\frac{1}{3}(6)+b\\0=2+b\\b=-2$

Thus,

equation of line = $y=\frac{1}{3}x-2$

Find the product<br> (2n-2)(2n^2-3n+5)

atroni [7]

Answer:

4n^3 -10n^2 +16n -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses, then combine like terms.

= 2n(2n^2 -3n +5) -2(2n^2 -3n +5)

= 4n^3 -6n^2 +10n -4n^2 +6n -10

= 4n^3 +n^2(-6-4) +n(10+6) -10

= 4n^3 -10n^2 +16n -10

Part (c)

We'll use this identity

$\sin(x+y) = \sin(x)\cos(y) + \cos(x)\sin(y)\\\\$

to say

$\sin(A+45) = \sin(A)\cos(45) + \cos(A)\sin(45)\\\\\sin(A+45) = \sin(A)\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} + \cos(A)\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\\sin(A+45) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\sin(A)+\cos(A))\\\\$

Similarly,

$\sin(A-45) = \sin(A + (-45))\\\\\sin(A-45) = \sin(A)\cos(-45) + \cos(A)\sin(-45)\\\\\sin(A-45) = \sin(A)\cos(45) - \cos(A)\sin(45)\\\\\sin(A-45) = \sin(A)\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - \cos(A)\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\\sin(A-45) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\sin(A)-\cos(A))\\\\$

-------------------------

The key takeaways here are that

$\sin(A+45) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\sin(A)+\cos(A))\\\\\sin(A-45) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\sin(A)-\cos(A))\\\\$

Therefore,

$2\sin(A+45)*\sin(A-45) = 2*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\sin(A)+\cos(A))*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\sin(A)-\cos(A))\\\\2\sin(A+45)*\sin(A-45) = 2*\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)^2\left(\sin^2(A)-\cos^2(A)\right)\\\\2\sin(A+45)*\sin(A-45) = 2*\frac{2}{4}\left(\sin^2(A)-\cos^2(A)\right)\\\\2\sin(A+45)*\sin(A-45) = \sin^2(A)-\cos^2(A)\\\\$

The identity is confirmed.

==========================================================

Part (d)

$\sin(x+y) = \sin(x)\cos(y) + \cos(x)\sin(y)\\\\\sin(45+A) = \sin(45)\cos(A) + \cos(45)\sin(A)\\\\\sin(45+A) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\cos(A) + \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\sin(A)\\\\\sin(45+A) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\cos(A)+\sin(A))\\\\$

Similarly,

$\sin(45-A) = \sin(45 + (-A))\\\\\sin(45-A) = \sin(45)\cos(-A) + \cos(45)\sin(-A)\\\\\sin(45-A) = \sin(45)\cos(A) - \cos(45)\sin(A)\\\\\sin(45-A) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\cos(A) - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\sin(A)\\\\\sin(45-A) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\cos(A)-\sin(A))\\\\$

-----------------

We'll square each equation

$\sin(45+A) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\cos(A)+\sin(A))\\\\\sin^2(45+A) = \left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\cos(A)+\sin(A))\right)^2\\\\\sin^2(45+A) = \frac{1}{2}\left(\cos^2(A)+2\sin(A)\cos(A)+\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\\sin^2(45+A) = \frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)+\frac{1}{2}*2\sin(A)\cos(A)+\frac{1}{2}\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\\sin^2(45+A) = \frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)+\sin(A)\cos(A)+\frac{1}{2}\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\$

and

$\sin(45-A) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\cos(A)-\sin(A))\\\\\sin^2(45-A) = \left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}(\cos(A)-\sin(A))\right)^2\\\\\sin^2(45-A) = \frac{1}{2}\left(\cos^2(A)-2\sin(A)\cos(A)+\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\\sin^2(45-A) = \frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)-\frac{1}{2}*2\sin(A)\cos(A)+\frac{1}{2}\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\\sin^2(45-A) = \frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)-\sin(A)\cos(A)+\frac{1}{2}\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\$

--------------------

Let's compare the results we got.

$\sin^2(45+A) = \frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)+\sin(A)\cos(A)+\frac{1}{2}\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\\sin^2(45-A) = \frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)-\sin(A)\cos(A)+\frac{1}{2}\sin^2(A)\right)\\\\$

Now if we add the terms straight down, we end up with $\sin^2(45+A)+\sin^2(45-A)$ on the left side

As for the right side, the sin(A)cos(A) terms cancel out since they add to 0.

Also note how $\frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A)+\frac{1}{2}\cos^2(A) = \cos^2(A)$ and similarly for the sin^2 terms as well.

The right hand side becomes $\cos^2(A)+\sin^2(A)$ but that's always equal to 1 (pythagorean trig identity)

This confirms that $\sin^2(45+A)+\sin^2(45-A) = 1$ is an identity
