Let x be the lowest positive number  Then  the other number = 5x.

So 5x - x = 72

4x = 72

x = 18

So the numbers are 18 and 90  answer

Given four functions, which one will have the highest y-intercept?
beks73 [17]
<span>The y-intercept of a function is given by the initial value of a function. It is the value of the function when x = 0.

Given the functions

A. Blake is tracking his savings account with an interest rate of 5% and a original deposit of $6.
The y-intercept for this function is the initial deposit which is $6.

B.
x    g(x)
0    6
1    2
2   10

The y-intersept for this function is 6 which isthe value of the function g(x) when x = 0.


C. The function h of x equals 4 to the x power, plus 3
When x = 0, h(x)=4^0+3=1+3=4
Thus the y-intecept is 4.

D. j(x) = 10(2)^x
when x = 0, j(x)=10(2)^0=10(1)=10
Thus, the y-intercept is 10.

Thereforen the function with the highest y-intercept is j(x)=10(2)^x which has a y-intercept of 10.

Simplify the expression.
Marizza181 [45]
\bf \textit{Cofunction Identities}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-{{ \theta}}\right)=cos({{ \theta}})\qquad &#10;\boxed{cos\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-{{ \theta}}\right)=sin({{ \theta}})}&#10;\\ \quad \\ \quad \\&#10;tan\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-{{ \theta}}\right)=cot({{ \theta}})\qquad &#10;cot\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-{{ \theta}}\right)=tan({{ \theta}})&#10;\\ \quad \\ \quad \\&#10;sec\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-{{ \theta}}\right)=csc({{ \theta}})\qquad &#10;csc\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-{{ \theta}}\right)=sec({{ \theta}})

\bf \\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;sin^2(\theta)+cos^2(\theta)=1\implies cos^2(\theta)=1-sin^2(\theta )&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{cos(\theta )=\sqrt{1-sin^2(\theta )}}

\bf \\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\cfrac{cos^2\left(\frac{\pi }{2}-x  \right)}{\sqrt{1-sin^2(x)}}\implies \cfrac{\left[ cos\left(\frac{\pi }{2}-x    \right)\right]^2}{cos(x)}\implies \cfrac{[sin(x)]^2}{cos(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)sin(x)}{cos(x)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;sin(x)\cdot \cfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\implies sin(x)tan(x)
