Answer: n= 32

Jakes started with 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the initial integer.

Step 1: take the reciprocal.

Reciprocal of n = 1/n

Step 2: double the number obtained in step 1

= 2×1/n = 2/n

Step 3: take the reciprocal of the number obtained in step 2.

Reciprocal of 2/n = n/2

Since he ended up with 16

n/2 = 16

n = 2×16 = 32

Find the following values from the information given<br> cot(theta°); tan(theta°) = −0.0005
Greeley [361]

Answer:

cot(θ°) = 2000 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The value of tan(θ°) = −0.0005

To solve:

cot(θ°)

Now,

we know the relation between cot and tan function as:

cot(θ°) = \frac{1}{\tan\theta}

therefore on substituting the value of theta in the above relation, we can find the value of cot(θ°)

Thus,

cot(θ°) = \frac{1}{-0.0005}

or

cot(θ°) = 2000

Easy points<br>if f(x)=3x-2 and g(x)=2x+1,find (f+g)(x).<br><br>a.x-1<br>b.5x-1<br>c.5x-3<br>d.x-3
pychu [463]

the answer would be b.

(f+g)(x)= 3x-2+2x+1. combine like terms: 3x+2x=5x and -2+1+-1. combine the answers to get 5x-1
