12(2a-3)=-4a+5

Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, distribute 12 to all terms within the parenthesis

12(2a) = 24a

12(-3) = -36

24a - 36 = -4a + 5

Add 4a to both sides, and add 36 to both sides

24a (+4a) - 36 (+36) = -4a (+4a) + 5 (+36)

24a + 4a = 5 + 36

Simplify

28a = 41

Isolate the a. Divide 28 from both sides

28a/28 = 41/28

a = 41/28

Simplify a

a = 1.46 (simplified)

hope this helps

4pi/3 find the exact trigonometric ratios for the angle whose radian measue is given
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

All trigonometric ratios.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find all the trigonometric ratios.

Given:

\theta = \dfrac{4\pi}{3} = \pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3}

Formula:

\sin(\pi +x) = -\sin(x)\\\cos(\pi +x) = -\cos(x)

\sin(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3}) = -\sin(\dfrac{\pi}{3}) = -\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

\cos ((\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})) = -\cos(\dfrac{\pi}{3}) = -\dfrac{1}{2}

Formula:

\tan\theta =\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}\\\cot\theta = \dfrac{1}{\tan\theta}\\\sec\theta = \dfrac{1}{\cos\theta}\\\csc\theta = \dfrac{1}{\sin\theta}

\tan(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})= \dfrac{\sin(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})}{\cos(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})}\\\\\tan(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3}) = \dfrac{\frac{-\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{-1}{2}} = \sqrt{3}

\cot(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3}) = \dfrac{1}{\tan(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})} = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

\sec(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3}) = \dfrac{1}{\cos(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})} = -2

\csc(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3}) = \dfrac{1}{\sin(\pi + \dfrac{\pi}{3})} = -\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
