Answer:

For k = 6 or k = -6, the equation will have exactly one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0.

This polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2} such that ax^{2} + bx + c = (x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2}), given by the following formulas:

x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac

If \bigtriangleup = 0, the equation has only one solution.

In this problem, we have that:

3x^{2} + kx + 3 = 0

So

a = 3, b = k, c = 3

\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac

\bigtriangleup = k^{2} - 4*3*3

\bigtriangleup = k^{2} - 36

We will only have one solution if \bigtriangleup = 0. So

\bigtriangleup = 0

k^{2} - 36 = 0

k^{2} = 36

k = \pm \sqrt{36}

k = \pm 6

For k = 6 or k = -6, the equation will have exactly one solution.

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Lines c and b, f and d (option b)

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove whether the lines satisfy the condition of being a transversal to another, let's prove one of the conditions wrong, and thus the answer -

Option 1:

Here lines a and b do not correspond to one another provided they are both transversals, thus don't act as transversals to one another, they simply intersect at a given point.

Option 2:

All conditions are met, lines c and b correspond with one another such that b is a transversal to both c and d. Lines f and d correspond with one another such that f is a transversal to both d and c.

Option 3:

Lines c and d are both not transversals, thus clearly don't act as transversals to one another.

Option 4:

Lines c and d are both not transversals, thus clearly don't act as transversals to one another.

Can someone help me with this? sin150° =
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

sin(150°) = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study how we can solve this problem

- At first the measure of the angle is 150°

- Ask your self in which quadrant can you find this measure

* To know the answer lets revise the four quadrants

# First quadrant the measure of all angles is between 0° and 90°

  the measure of any angle is α

∴ All the angles are acute

∴ All the trigonometry functions of α are positive

# Second quadrant the measure of all angles is between 90° and 180°

  the measure of any angle is 180° - α

∴ All the angles are obtuse

∴ The value of sin(180° - α) only is positive ⇒ sin(180° - α) = sinα

# Third quadrant the measure of all angles is between 180° and 270°

  the measure of any angle is 180° + α

∴ All the angles are reflex

∴ The value of tan(180° + α) only is positive ⇒ tan(180° + α) = tanα

# Fourth quadrant the measure of all angles is between 270° and 360°

  the measure of any angle is 360° - α

∴ All the angles are reflex

∴ The value of cos(360° - α) only is positive ⇒ cos(360° - α) = cosα

* Now lets check the angle of measure 150

- It is an obtuse angle

∴ It is in the second quadrant

∴ the value of sin(150) is positive

∴ sin(150°) = sinα

∵ 180 - α = 150 ⇒ isolate α

∵ α = 180° - 150° = 30°

∴ sin(150°) = sin(30°)

∵ sin(30°) = 1/2

∴ sin(150°) = 1/2
