Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+1) = -2(x-1) - 4

3x + 3 = -2x + 2 - 4

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

Add the -2x to both sides

5x + 3 = -2

Subtract the 3 to both sides

5x = -5

Divide both sides by 5

x = -1

Find the inverse of the function y = x2 – 12

vivado [14]

Answer: $y=\sqrt{x+12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope you mean y = x² - 12 and not y = 2x - 12.

You switch the y and x variables:

x = y² - 12

And solve for y:

x + 12 = y²

$y=\sqrt{x+12}$

Why does sin(15) always equal the same number, no matter how big or small you make the triangle.

Alona [7]

Sin is equal to the same number, no matter how big or small you make the triangle because the sine of the angle is equal to the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.
