Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's because any number multiplied by 0 equals 0. We could put any 2 numbers other than 2.7 and 2.8 yet still get both sides of the  equation = - 5.9 but the 2 sides are obviously not equal.

To do the test correctly he can use any number except 0.

Answer:

Sample Response: The coefficients of x are different in the expressions, but the constant values are the same. Zero times any value is zero, so both expressions will be equal to –5.9. If Ryan tried any other number, he would see that the expressions are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiple Choice: Choose the correct answer for questions 1 and 2.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

C. Trisha is shorter than 75% of girls aged 16 to 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a dataset is divided into four equal parts, the first part is called the lower quartile. The data is usually sorted in ascending order before finding quartiles.

The lower quartile contains 25% of the whole data. The values in lower quartile are are less than 75% of the values.

If Trisha's height is in lower quartile that means her height is less than the girls in middle and higher quartile.

Hence,

The correct answer is:

C. Trisha is shorter than 75% of girls aged 16 to 18.

Which of the following are identities? Check all that apply
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, those questions require us to develop those equations to derive into trigonometrical equations so that we can unveil them or not. Doing it only two alternatives, the other ones will not result in Trigonometrical Identities.

Examining

A) True

\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{tan2x} \\ \frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{\frac{2tanx}{1-tan^{2}x}}\\ tan2x=\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx}

Double angle tan2\alpha =\frac{1 -tan^{2}\alpha }{2tan\alpha}

B) False,

No further development towards a Trig Identity

C) True

Double Angle Sine Formula sin2\alpha =2sin\alpha *cos\alpha

sin(8x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)\\2sin(4x)cos(4x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)

D) False No further development towards a Trig Identity

[sin(x)-cos(x)]^{2} =1+sin(2x)\\ sin^{2} (x)-2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^{2}x=1+2sinxcosx\\ \\sin^{2} (x)+cos^{2}x=1+4sin(x)cos(x)
