I'm going to do this problem with mathematical equations (I chose x to represent the first, y as the second, and z as the third)
so according to the first sentence, x+y+z=270
the second sentence is saying x+y=z+98
and the third sentence says z-47=x

I would first plug x in to my middle equation
(z-47)+y=z+98
then add 47 to both sides to get z+y=z+145
In this case we are lucky because as we go to subtract z they cancel out and we get y=145 

Now plug y and x (in terms of z) into the first equation 
(z-47)+145+z=270
subtract 47 from 145 to get 98
 subtract that from 270 to give you z+z=172 
simplify 2z=172
divide by 2 to get z=86

Now go back and plug in z to the bottom equation,
86-47=x so x is equal to 39

Overall we got x=39, y=145 and z=86
To make sure these answers are correct we want to plug the back into our original equations.
39+145+86=270 True!
39+145=184=86+98 True!
and finally 86-47=39 True!
So we know that these numbers are correct

*Just so you know it doesn't really matter which equation you plug in you substituted values into, or which one you solve for first, it's all just a matter of preference....

Which pair of functions have the same domain? A. F(x)= sin x and g(x) = tan x B. F(x) = cos x and f(x) = csc x C. G(x) = tan x a
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The correct choice is D

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometric functions, \sin x and \cos x are defined for all real numbers.

\tan x=\frac{\sin x}{\cos (x)}, this function is not defined where \cos x=0.

\cot x=\frac{\cos x}{\sin (x)}, this function is not defined where \sin x=0.

\csc x=\frac{1}{\sin (x)}, this function is not defined where \sin x=0.

For option A

The domain of f(x)=\sin(x) is all real numbers.

The domain of g(x) =tanx is x\ne \frac{(2n+1)\pi}{2}

For option B

The domain of f(x)=\cos(x) is all real numbers.

The domain of f(x) =csc(x) is x\ne n\pi

For option C,

The domain of G(x) =tanx is x\ne \frac{(2n+1)\pi}{2}

The domain of f(x) =cot(x) is x\ne n\pi

For option D;

The domain of f(x) =cot(x) is x\ne n\pi

The domain of f(x) =csc(x) is x\ne n\pi

PLease help me with this!
astraxan [27]

Answer:

1. x2 - 9 > 0

x^2-3^2>0

(x+3)(x-3)>0

(x+3)>0 and (x-3)>0

x>-3       and  x>3

2. x2 - 8x + 12 > 0

   x^2 - 8x  +12>0

   x^2 -2x -6x +12 >0   (-8x is replaced by (-2x) + (-6x) )

   x(x-2) -6(x-2) >0

    (x-6)(x-2)>0

(x-6)>0    and (x-2)>0

    x>6     and     x>2

3. -x2 - 12x - 32 > 0

    -x^2 -12x -32 >0

     x^2 +12x +32 <0

      x^2 +4x +8x +32<0

      x(x+4) +8(x+4)<0

      (x+8)(x+4)<0

(x+8)<0   and  (x+4)<0

x<-8      and    x<-4

4. x2 + 3x - 20 >= 3x + 5

   x^2 +3x -20 >= 3x +5

   x^2 +3x -20 -3x >= 3x +5 -3x

     x^2 -20  >= 5

     x^2 -20 +20  >= 5  +20

     x^2 >=25

     x^2-25 >=0

      (x-5)(x+5)>=0

(x-5)>=0  and (x+5)>=0

  x>=5    and x>=-5
