Answer:
sinx = √2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
cos2x = 1-2sin²x
5/9 = 1-2sin²x
2sin²x =1-5/9
2sin²x = 4/9
sin²x = (4/9)/2
sin²x = (4/9)*(1/2)
sin²x = 2/9
sinx = √2/3
Well, since it's already set up, all we do is divide -6 by 3/4 to get our x
So that means x=-8
Answer:
The equation has the form: y = a + b * x where a and b are constant numbers. The variable x is the independent variable, and y is the dependent variable. Typically, you choose a value to substitute for the independent variable and then solve for the dependent variable.
Multiply all terms in the first equation by 2 and all terms in the second by 3.
You should obtain:
6x + 16y = 34
-6x + 27y = 9
------------------
43y =43, and so y = 1. Subbing 1 for y in the first eq'n, we get
3x + 8(1) = 17, or 3x = 9, or x = 3.
The solution is (3, 1).
