Answer:

Second option is correct. The x-coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 2:5 is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph  it is noticed that the endpoints of the line segment JK are J(-6,-2) and K(8,-9).

The formula to find x intercept.

x=\frac{m}{m+n}(x_2-x_1)+x_1

The ratio is 2:5, therefore the value of m is 2 and the value of n is 5.

x=\frac{2}{2+5}(8-(-6))+(-6)

x=\frac{2}{7}(14)-6

x=4-6

x=-2

Therefore the x-coordinate is -2 and second option is correct.

Answer:

A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, those questions require us to develop those equations to derive into trigonometrical equations so that we can unveil them or not. Doing it only two alternatives, the other ones will not result in Trigonometrical Identities.

Examining

A) True

\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{tan2x} \\ \frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{\frac{2tanx}{1-tan^{2}x}}\\ tan2x=\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx}

Double angle tan2\alpha =\frac{1 -tan^{2}\alpha }{2tan\alpha}

B) False,

No further development towards a Trig Identity

C) True

Double Angle Sine Formula sin2\alpha =2sin\alpha *cos\alpha

sin(8x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)\\2sin(4x)cos(4x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)

D) False No further development towards a Trig Identity

[sin(x)-cos(x)]^{2} =1+sin(2x)\\ sin^{2} (x)-2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^{2}x=1+2sinxcosx\\ \\sin^{2} (x)+cos^{2}x=1+4sin(x)cos(x)

What is the solution to the equation below? log6 4x 2 - log6 x=2
Natali [406]
Log[6] * 4x2 + -1log[6] * x = 2

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
6 * 4glo * x2 + -1log[6] * x = 2

Multiply 6 * 4
24glo * x2 + -1log[6] * x = 2

Multiply glo * x2
24glox2 + -1log[6] * x = 2

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:
24glox2 + -1 * 6glo * x = 2

Multiply -1 * 6
24glox2 + -6glo * x = 2

Multiply glo * x
24glox2 + -6glox = 2

Reorder the terms:
-6glox + 24glox2 = 2

Solving
-6glox + 24glox2 = 2

Solving for variable 'g'.

Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right.

Reorder the terms:
-2 + -6glox + 24glox2 = 2 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
-2 + -6glox + 24glox2 = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'.
2(-1 + -3glox + 12glox2) = 0

Ignore the factor 2.
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-1 + -3glox + 12glox2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1 + -3glox + 12glox2 = 0

Solving
-1 + -3glox + 12glox2 = 0

Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -3glox + 1 + 12glox2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + -3glox + 12glox2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -3glox + 12glox2 = 0 + 1
-3glox + 12glox2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
-3glox + 12glox2 = 1
