f(x)=\frac{x-8}{x+7} \\
g(x)=\frac{-7x-8}{x-1} \\ \\
f(g(x))=\frac{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}-8}{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}+7}=\frac{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}-\frac{8(x-1)}{x-1}}{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}+\frac{7(x-1)}{x-1}}=\frac{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}-\frac{8x-8}{x-1}}{\frac{-7x-8}{x-1}+\frac{7x-7}{x-1}}=\frac{\frac{-7x-8-8x+8}{x-1}}{\frac{-7x-8+7x-7}{x-1}}= \\ =\frac{\frac{-13x}{x-1}}{\frac{-13}{x-1}}=\frac{-13x}{(x-1)} \times \frac{(x-1)}{-13}=x \\ \Downarrow \\ f(g(x))=x \\
\checkmark

g(f(x))=\frac{-7(\frac{x-8}{x+7})-8}{\frac{x-8}{x+7}-1}=\frac{\frac{-7(x-8)}{x+7}-\frac{8(x+7)}{x+7}}{\frac{x-8}{x+7}-\frac{1(x+7)}{x+7}}=\frac{\frac{-7x+56}{x+7}-\frac{8x+56}{x+7}}{\frac{x-8}{x+7}-\frac{x+7}{x+7}}= \\
=\frac{\frac{-7x+56-8x-56}{x+7}}{\frac{x-8-x-7}{x+7}}=\frac{\frac{-15x}{x+7}}{\frac{-15}{x+7}}=\frac{-15x}{(x+7)} \times \frac{(x+7)}{-15}=x \\ \Downarrow \\ g(f(x))=x \\ \checkmark

Find the exact value of csc(-1860).
Alex787 [66]
Now, there are 360° in a circle, how many times does 360° go into 1860°?

well, let's check that,   \bf \cfrac{1860}{360}\implies \cfrac{31}{6}\implies 5\frac{1}{6}\implies 5+\frac{1}{6}

now, this is a negative angle, so it's going clockwise, like a clock moves, so it goes around the circle clockwise 5 times fully, and then it goes 1/6 extra.

well, we know 360° is in a circle, how many degrees in 1/6 of 360°?  well, is just 360/6 or their product, and that's just 60°.

so -1860, is an angle that goes clockwise, negative, 5 times fully, then goes an extra 60° passed.

5 times fully will land you back at the 0 location, if you move further down 60° clockwise, that'll land you on the IV quadrant, with an angle of -60°.

therefore, the csc(-1860°) is the same as the angle of csc(-60°), which is the same as the csc(360° - 60°) or csc(300°).

\bf csc(300^o)\implies \cfrac{1}{sin(300^o)}\implies \cfrac{1}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies -\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
\\\\\\
\textit{and if we rationalize the denominator}\qquad -\cfrac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}

The surface area of a rectangular prism is 32 square inches. The volume of the prism is 12 cubic inches. The sum of all edge len
Goryan [66]

Answer:

36 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length, width and height of the rectangular prism are a, b, c respectively.

So, surface area, 2(ab + bc + ca) = 32 {Given} ............ (1)

Volume, abc = 12 {Given} ............ (2)

And, the sum of all the edges, 4(a + b + c) = 28 {Given} .......... (3)

Now, if the length width and height are increased by 1 inch, then the volume of the prism will be = (a + 1)(b + 1)(c + 1)

= abc + (ab + bc + ca) + (a + b + c) + 1

= 12 + 16 + 7 + 1 {From equations (1), (2) and (3)}

= 36 cubic inches. (Answer)

Pentagon PQRST and its reflection, pentagon P'Q'R'S'T', are shown in the coordinate plane below:
Ad libitum [116K]
<span>I have graphed the given coordinates of both pentagons. The reflection was across the y-axis where coordinates of Pentagon PQRST (-x,y) resulted to Pentagon P'Q'R'S'T' (x,y). The line of reflection between the pentagons was x = 0. Line of reflection is the midway between the pre-image and its reflection.</span>
