Please help. I need to know the strategy, the correct work, and to identify the error.

Mathematics
1 answer:
zysi [14]3 years ago

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

13x + 5 + 17x - 4.5 + x

NOTE: You can only add/subtract LIKE terms . Here we have  variable terms in x  (13x , 17x and x) and 2 constants ( 5 and 4.5).

Sarah's next line is

18x + 17x - 4.5 + x

This is incorrect . It looks like she  added 13x + 5 and got 18x!! Which is of course wrong because they are NOT LIKE terms. 5 is a constant and 13x is a variable term in x.

The third line is correct:-

35x - 4.5 + x.

She has added the 2 variables 17x and 18x.

Fourth line  is  30.5x + x. She's at it again - Trying to subtract 4.5 from 35x .

Last line 31.5x

She has added  the 2 terms in x correctly, but the final answer is wrong of course due to the earlier errors.

cos (x/2) = -sqrt2/2 in (0,360) looking for two values ?? Can someone please help me I can’t seem to figure out how to solve thi
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

135° and 225°

Step-by-step explanation:

basically you want to find the value of x between 0 and 360 in this equation

cos x/2 = -(√2)/2

assume x/2 as n, so

cos n = -(√2)/2

n = 45°

then remember the quadrant system

0-90 1st quadrant, all is POSITIVE

90-180 2nd quadrant, only SIN has positive value

180 - 270 3rd quadrant, only TAN has positive value

270 -360 4th quadrant, only COS positive here.

so if you try to find negative value look into 2nd and 3rd quadrant that related 45° to x-axis (0°or 180°)

so the value of x is

180 - 45 = 135° (2nd quadrant) and

180 + 45° = 225° (3rd quadrant)

What is the value of X?​
Lisa [10]
The value of X is 5 because the dimensions of the first triangle is x=5 and 15 so therefore the second triangle has to have the same dimensions according to X so that would be 15 and 6(X)=30. As a result, X=5
