Every member of the family gives a gift to every other member of the family. There are ten members this year. If there are just

2 members exchanging gifts, how many gifts will be exchanged

The statement is contradictory, because it is said that every member of the family gives a gift to every other member of the family. And from 10 members, there are just 2 exchanging. Anyway, maybe they are only 2 members exchanging the gifts at that point in time.
So, each member will exchange 9 gifts (that is 10 members total minus herself), and 2 members are exchanging gifts at that point, so 18 gifts are being exchanged.

Where are the x-intercepts for f(x) = −4cos(x − pi over 2) from x = 0 to x = 2π?
yKpoI14uk [10]
Recall that to get the x-intercepts, we set the f(x) = y = 0, thus

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{0}=-4cos\left(x-\frac{\pi }{2}  \right)\implies 0=cos\left(x-\frac{\pi }{2}  \right)
\\\\\\
cos^{-1}(0)=cos^{-1}\left[ cos\left(x-\frac{\pi }{2}  \right) \right]\implies cos^{-1}(0)=x-\cfrac{\pi }{2}
\\\\\\
x-\cfrac{\pi }{2}=
\begin{cases}
\frac{\pi }{2}\\\\
\frac{3\pi }{2}
\end{cases}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\
x-\cfrac{\pi }{2}=\cfrac{\pi }{2}\implies x=\cfrac{\pi }{2}+\cfrac{\pi }{2}\implies x=\cfrac{2\pi }{2}\implies \boxed{x=\pi }\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
x-\cfrac{\pi }{2}=\cfrac{3\pi }{2}\implies x=\cfrac{3\pi }{2}+\cfrac{\pi }{2}\implies x=\cfrac{4\pi }{2}\implies \boxed{x=2\pi }

Please help me! I'm spending 50 points on this question and my last two questions never even got answered!
Verdich [7]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is only affected if certain values can make the result something that either doesn't make sense or is an error. In your situation, it wants you to find the domain of f/g, which is a fraction. The only rule we have for fractions regarding domain is that we simply can't divide by zero, to find the domain for any fraction with variables in the denominator, what I do is take the denominator, set it equal to 0, and solve for x.

So, if we're taking f/g, we have:

\frac{3x^2 + x^4 + 2}{4x - 3}

4x - 3 makes up our denominator, the bottom part of the fraction. So

4x - 3 = 0

4x = 3

x = 3/4

So the denominator is equal to zero when x is equal to 3/4. This would produce an error in any calculator because you can't divide by zero. The domain here is all real numbers except for 3/4.

(For future problems, the only thing to look out for is if your numerator, the top part of the fraction, factors into something that cancels with the bottom. In that case, it wouldn't affect domain because you aren't actually dividing by anything. For example:

\frac{x^2 - 4}{x-2}

If we factor the top, we see that x^2 - 4 = (x - 2)(x + 2). In this case, we have (x - 2) in both the top and bottom of the fraction, so it cancels out, and from there nothing else is restricting our domain. It would be all real numbers in a case like that.)
