Answer:

\frac{7\pi}{24} and \frac{31\pi}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{3} \tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})-1=0

Let's first isolate the trig function.

Add 1 one on both sides:

\sqrt{3} \tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=1

Divide both sides by \sqrt{3}:

\tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

Now recall \tan(u)=\frac{\sin(u)}{\cos(u)}.

\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}

or

\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}

The first ratio I have can be found using \frac{\pi}{6} in the first rotation of the unit circle.

The second ratio I have can be found using \frac{7\pi}{6} you can see this is on the same line as the \frac{\pi}{6} so you could write \frac{7\pi}{6} as \frac{\pi}{6}+\pi.

So this means the following:

\tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

is true when x-\frac{\pi}{8}=\frac{\pi}{6}+n \pi

where n is integer.

Integers are the set containing {..,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,...}.

So now we have a linear equation to solve:

x-\frac{\pi}{8}=\frac{\pi}{6}+n \pi

Add \frac{\pi}{8} on both sides:

x=\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{8}+n \pi

Find common denominator between the first two terms on the right.

That is 24.

x=\frac{4\pi}{24}+\frac{3\pi}{24}+n \pi

x=\frac{7\pi}{24}+n \pi (So this is for all the solutions.)

Now I just notice that it said find all the solutions in the interval [0,2\pi).

So if \sqrt{3} \tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})-1=0 and we let u=x-\frac{\pi}{8}, then solving for x gives us:

u+\frac{\pi}{8}=x ( I just added \frac{\pi}{8} on both sides.)

So recall 0\le x.

Then 0 \le u+\frac{\pi}{8}.

Subtract \frac{\pi}{8} on both sides:

-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u

Simplify:

-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u

-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u

So we want to find solutions to:

\tan(u)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} with the condition:

-\frac{\pi}{8}\le u

That's just at \frac{\pi}{6} and \frac{7\pi}{6}

So now adding \frac{\pi}{8} to both gives us the solutions to:

\tan(x-\frac{\pi}{8})=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} in the interval:

0\le x.

The solutions we are looking for are:

\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{8} and \frac{7\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{8}

Let's simplifying:

(\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{8})\pi and (\frac{7}{6}+\frac{1}{8})\pi

\frac{7}{24}\pi and \frac{31}{24}\pi

\frac{7\pi}{24} and \frac{31\pi}{24}

Answer:

The second table.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first table, the speed goes from 45 down to 43; then down to 41; then up to 42; then up to 43.  It decreases and then increases.  This is not the correct table.

In the second table, the speed goes from 45 up to 47; then up to 49; then down to 48; then down to 47.  It increases and then decreases; this is the correct table.

To verify, we check the last two tables.  The third table stays at 45, then decreases to 43 and 41.  This is not correct.

The last table decreases from 45 to 43, then decreases to 41, then stays constant.  This is not correct.

The second table is the only correct one.
