Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(x) = -.6 means that you are looking for the angle, x, that has a cosine of -.6. If you do this on your calculator, you press the 2nd button, then cos (in degree mode, NOT radian mode!) and then -.6 and enter. You get an angle measure of 53.13010235°. If that angle is complementary to angle y, then angle x and y added together have to equal 90°. Therefore,

90 - 53.13010235 = 36.86989765°

Take the sin of this angle by hitting sin and then entering in the 36.86989765. This gives you a value of .6000000000001 which, for all intents and purposes, is .6

Answer:

1. annual tuition 2. $-27139 3. slope = -0.91

Step-by-step explanation:

1. An independent variable is the factor that is not determined by the model in this case the annual tuition variable (the linear regression model factor)

2. substitute $30,000 into the linear regressions equation gives:

y = -0.91(30000) + 161 = -27139

This value tells us that when the annual tuition is $30,000 the average mid-career salary of graduates is predicted to be -$27,139

3. the slope if the regression is represented by the coefficient of the factor in the linear regression model. In this case, as the factor is x or the annual tuition, and the coefficient of this variable in the given example is -0.91 which in turn is the slope of the model.

(sinA-cosA+1)/(sinA+cosA-1)=2(1+cosecA)

Answer:

The trigonometrical expression is sin² A + sin A - 2 cos A - 2 cos A × sin A = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Trigonometrical function as :

$\frac{sin A - cos A + 1}{sin A + cos A - 1}$ = 2 (1 + cosec A)

Or, $\frac{sin A + ( 1 - cos A)}{sin A - (1 - cos A)}$ = 2 (1 + cosec A)

,<u> Now, rationalizing </u>

$\frac{(sin A + ( 1 - cos A)) \times (sin A + (1 - cosA))}{(sin A - (1 - cos A))\times (sin A + (1 - cos A))}$ = 2 (1 + cosec A)

Or, $\frac{(sin A + (1 - cos A))^{2}}{sin^{2} - (1-cos A)^{2}}$ = 2 ( 1 + $\dfrac{1}{\textrm sinA}$

Or, $\frac{sin^{2}A + (1 - cosA)^{2} + 2 \times sin A \times (1 - cos A)}{sin^{2}A - (1 + cos^{2}A - 2 cos A)}$ = 2 ( $\dfrac{1 + sin A}{sin A}$

Or, $\frac{sin^{2}A + 1 + cos^{2}A - 2 cos A + 2 sin A - 2 sin A cos A}{sin^{2}A - 1 - cos^{2}A +2 cos A}$ = 2 ( $\dfrac{1 + sin A}{sin A}$

Or, $\frac{sin^{2}A + 1 + cos^{2}A - 2 cos A + 2 sin A - 2 sin A cos A}{sin^{2}A - (sin^{2}A + cos^{2}A) - cos^{2}A +2 cos A}$ = 2 ( $\dfrac{1 + sin A}{sin A}$
