Solve the following absolute value equations. Show the solution set and check your answers. |0.3-3/5k|-0.4=1.2

9966 [12]

Answer:

**The equation is not clear, so I have provided both options**

<h3><u>Option 1</u></h3>

$\left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k\right|-0.4=1.2$

$\implies \left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k\right|=1.6$

<u>Solution 1</u>

$\implies 0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.6$

$\implies -\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.3$

$\implies k=-\dfrac{13}{6}$

<u>Solution 2</u>

$\implies -(0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k)=1.6$

$\implies -0.3+\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.6$

$\implies \dfrac{3}{5}k=1.9$

$\implies k=\dfrac{19}{6}$

<h3><u>Option 2</u></h3>

$\left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}\right|-0.4=1.2$

$\implies \left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}\right|=1.6$

<u>Solution 1</u>

$\implies 0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.6$

$\implies -\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.3$

$\implies -3=6.5k$

$\implies k=-\dfrac{6}{13}$

<u>Solution 2</u>

$\implies -(0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k})=1.6$

$\implies -0.3+\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.6$

$\implies \dfrac{3}{5k}=1.9$

$\implies 3=9.5k$

$\implies k=\dfrac{6}{19}$

Help ASAP thank you!! And show work !

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

c. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f(x) is the regular graph. Since the inverse function flips the x and y coordinates, f inverse of 4 is actually where y=4, not x=4. so the x coordinate where y is 4 is -2.

Help!!!!! Please!!!!!!!! Math!!!!!! Quickly!!!!!! Brainiest answer to correct answer!!!!!!!!

muminat

The answer should be 103. Because the interior angles of all triangles add up to 180 degrees, you can just add together the two known interior angles; subtract them from 180; and then find the supplement.

Find sin(2x), cos(2x), and tan(2x) from the given information.<br> tan(x) = − 1/2 , cos(x) > 0

vodomira [7]

Answer:

sin(2x) = -4/5
cos(2x) = 3/5
tan(2x) = -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

It may be easiest to start with tan(2x).

tan(2x) = 2tan(x)/(1 -tan(x)²)

tan(2x) = 2(-1/2)/(1 -(-1/2)²) = -1/(3/4)

tan(2x) = -4/3 . . . . . still a 4th-quadrant angle

Then cosine can be found from ...

cos(2x) = 1/√(tan(2x)² +1) = 1/√((-4/3)²+1) = √(9/25)

cos(2x) = 3/5

Sine can be found from these two:

sin(2x) = cos(2x)tan(2x) = (3/5)(-4/3)

sin(2x) = -4/5
