Answer:

x= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5x + -4 = 7x + 4

Solving

-4 + 5x = 4 + 7x

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 5x + -7x = 4 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 5x + -7x = -2x

-4 + -2x = 4 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0

-4 + -2x = 4 + 0

-4 + -2x = 4

Add '4' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 4 + -2x = 4 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0

0 + -2x = 4 + 4

-2x = 4 + 4

Combine like terms: 4 + 4 = 8

-2x = 8

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = -4

Simplifying

x = -4

What is x? I will give brainliest if you explain your answer.
horsena [70]

Answer:

  • x =  {0, π/2, 3π/2, 2π}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • cotx cos x - cot x = 0
  • cotx( cosx - 1) = 0

1. <u>cotx = 0</u>

  • x = π/2 + πn
  • In the interval [0, 2π] we have π/2 and 3π/2

2. <u>cosx = 1</u>

  • x  = 0 + 2πn
  • In the given interval we have 0 and 2π

<u>So the solution set is:</u>

  • x =  {0, π/2, 3π/2, 2π}
