Answer:

A) x=9/2 B) x=-1/5, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-9=27/1-5x

3x-9=27-5x

3x-(-5x)-9=27

3x+5x-9=27

8x-9=27

8x=27+9

8x=36

x=36/8

simplify

x=9/2

Answer: x=9/2

-----------------------------

10x-1/x=3

(10x^2-1)/x=3

10x^2-1=3*x

10x^2-1=3x

10x^2-3x-1=0

factor out the trinomial,

find two numbers that when they multiply,

you get the third term, which is -1 in this case.

When you add those 2 numbers, you get the second term,

which is -3 in this case.

(5x+1)(2x-1)=0

apply the zero property from here,

set 5x+1=0 and 2x-1=0 and solve for x.

5x=0-1=-1, x=-1/5,

2x=0+1=1, 2x=1, x=1/2.

So x=-1/5, 1/2.

If you are given 2 points, it's easy to find the slope.
(8, -6)
(3, -2)

slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
slope = (-2 + 6) / (3 - 8)
slope = (4) / (-5)
m = 4/-5 or -5/4 or

Angles A and B are located in the first quadrant such that sinA= 7/25 and cosB = 5/13. Determine the exact value for cos (A-B).
fomenos

Answer:

  204/325

Step-by-step explanation:

You can work this a couple of ways. We expect you are probably expected to use trig identities.

  cos(A) = √(1 -sin²(A)) = 24/25

  sin(B) = √(1 -cos²(B)) = 12/13

cos(A -B) = cos(A)cos(B) +sin(A)sin(B) = (24/25)(5/13) +(7/25)(12/13)

  = (24·5 +7·12)/325

cos(A -B) = 204/325

__

The other way to work this is using inverse trig functions. It is necessary to carry the full calculator precision if you want an exact answer.

  cos(A -B) = cos(arcsin(7/25) -arccos(5/13)) = cos(16.2602° -67.3801°)

  = cos(-51.1199°) ≈ 0.62769230 . . . . (last 6 digits repeating)

The denominators of 25 and 13 suggest that the desired fraction will have a denominator of 25·13 = 325, so we can multiply this value by 325 to see what we get.

  325·cos(A-B) = 204

so, the exact value is ...

  cos(A -B) = 204/325
