Solve for x, Show your work: 1/2 (16 - x) = -12 (x + 7)

soldi70 [24.7K]

You have to get rid of 1/2 by multiplying it by its recriprocal which is like this:
1) 1/2 x 2/1 which equals to zero and you do the same to the other side.
2) -12 x 2/1 = -24x then multiply-24x with 7 which equals -168.
16-x= -24x -168
3) subtract 16 to the other side and subtract 24x with x
23x= -184
4) divide by 23 to isolate x and you get -8
5) x=-8

Help! Prove the equality<br><br>arccos √(2/3) - arccos (1+√6)/(2*√3) = π/6

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

<em>Proof in the explanation</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Equalities</u>

Those are expressions involving trigonometric functions which must be proven, generally working on only one side of the equality

For this particular equality, we'll use the following equation

$\displaystyle cos(x-y)=cos\ x\ cos\ y+sin\ x\ sin\ y$

The equality we want to prove is

$\displaystyle arccos\ \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}-arccos\left(\frac{1+\sqrt{6}}{2\sqrt{3}}\right)=\frac{\pi}{6}$

Let's set the following variables:

$\displaystyle x=arccos\ \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}},\ y=arccos(\frac{1+\sqrt{6}}{2\sqrt{3}})$

And modify the first variable:

$\displaystyle x=arccos\ \frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}}=>\ cos\ x= \frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}}$

Now with the second variable

$\displaystyle y=arccos\ \frac{1+\sqrt{6}}{2\sqrt{3}}=>cos\ y=\frac{1+\sqrt{6}}{2\sqrt{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}+3\sqrt{2}}{6}$

Knowing that

$sin^2x+cos^2x=1$

We compute the other two trigonometric functions of X and Y

$\displaystyle sin \ x=\sqrt{1-cos^2\ x}=\sqrt{1-(\frac{\sqrt{6}}{3})^2}=\sqrt{1-\frac{6}{9}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

$\displaystyle sin\ y=\sqrt{1-cos^2y}=\sqrt{1-\frac{(\sqrt{3}+3\sqrt{2})^2}{36}}}$

$\displaystyle sin\ y=\sqrt{\frac{36-(3+6\sqrt{6}+18)}{36}}=\sqrt{\frac{15-6\sqrt{6}}{36}}$

Computing

$15-6\sqrt{6}=(3-\sqrt{6})^2$

Then

$\displaystyle sin\ y=\frac{3-\sqrt{6}}{6}$

Now we replace all in the first equality:

$\displaystyle cos(x-y)=\frac{\sqrt{6}}{3}.\frac{\sqrt{3}+3\sqrt{2}}{6}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}.\frac{3-\sqrt{6}}{6}$

$\displaystyle cos(x-y)=\frac{3\sqrt{2}+6\sqrt{3}}{18}+\frac{3\sqrt{3}-3\sqrt{2}}{18}$

$\displaystyle cos(x-y)=\frac{9\sqrt{3}}{18}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=cos\ \pi/6$

Thus, proven
