Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

$a^{m}$ × $a^{n}$ = $a^{(m+n)}$

Given

$6^{9}$ × $6^{x}$ = 6², then

$6^{(9+x)}$ = 6²

Since the bases on both sides are equal then equate the exponents

9 + x = 2 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

x = - 7

If the point (-1/2, y) lies on the line whose equation is 2x - 3y = 6, what is the value of y?

salantis [7]

Plug in the known x value

2(-1/2)-3y=6
-1-3y=6
-3y=7
y=-7/3

Final answer: -7/3

Given:

In a right angle triangle θ is an acute angle and $\tan\theta =\dfrac{3}{5}$ .

To find:

The value of $\cos \theta$ .

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

$\tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

We have,

$\tan\theta =\dfrac{3}{5}$

It means the ratio of perpendicular to base is 3:5. Let 3x be the perpendicular and 5x be the base.

By using Pythagoras theorem,

$Hypotenuse=\sqrt{Perpendicular^2+base^2}$

$Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(3x)^2+(5x)^2}$

$Hypotenuse=\sqrt{9x^2+25x^2}$

$Hypotenuse=\sqrt{34x^2}$

$Hypotenuse=x\sqrt{34}$

In a right angle triangle,

$\cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}$

$\cos \theta=\dfrac{5x}{x\sqrt{34}}$

$\cos \theta=\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{34}}$

Therefore, the value of $\cos \theta$ is $\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{34}}$ .
