This is a doozy so pay attention. First thing you have to recognize is that is a trig identity, the sum identity for cosine to be exact. That formula is

cos(\alpha +\beta )=cos\alpha cos\beta -sin\alpha sin\beta.

So that means you need to find the cosine of alpha and the sin of beta. We are given the sin of alpha being 4/5 in the first quadrant. If you set up the sin ratio which is side opposite over hypotenuse of a right triangle, you put the 4 on the side opposite the reference angle, alpha, and the hypotenuse of 5 on the terminal ray and then you have to find the missing side of the right triangle you created. Using Pythagorean's theorem, you find that the missing side, which is the adjacent side to alpha, is 3. Now you can find the cosine of alpha as well, since cosine is the side adjacent, 3, over the hypotenuse, 5. So far wwe have

sin\alpha =\frac{4}{5} and

cos\alpha =\frac{3}{5} for that first angle. Now moving on to the second angle. The cosine of beta is side adjacent, 5, over the hypotenuse, 13, and we are missing the side opposite the reference angle beta. Using Pythagorean's theorem again to find the side opposite, we have that that side measures 12. Now we can find the sine of beta using that opposite side, 12, over the hypotenuse, 13. What we have now is

cos\beta =\frac{5}{13} and

sin\beta =\frac{12}{13}. According to the identity, we have to multiply those ratios now:

(\frac{3}{5}*\frac{5}{13})-(\frac{4}{5}*\frac{12}{13}).

When you do that you get

\frac{3}{13}-\frac{48}{65}.

Of course in order to subtract those 2 fractions you need a common denominator which is 65 so

\frac{15}{65}-\frac{48}{65} which gives you a final answer of -\frac{33}{65} which is the first choice given above. There you go!

How do u solve to get x?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

2^(2x) - 5(2^x) = -4

(2^x)^2 - 5(2^x) = -4

Substitute 2^x = z --> x = ln(z)/ln(2)

z^2 - 5z = -4

z^2 - 5z + 4 = 0

(z - 1)(z - 4) = 0

z = 1 --> x = ln(1)/ln(2) = 0

z = 4 --> x = ln(4)/ln(2) = 2

Each gallon of paint covers 200 square feet. I have to paint one side of a wall that is 12 meters tall and 80 meters long. If a
Neko [114]

Answer:

51 gal

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the wall you need to paint:

12 m * 80 m = 960 m^2

Use conversion rate to convert square meters to square feet (first, make the conversion rate into square meters instead of regular meters):

1 ft / 0.3048 m -> 1^2 ft / 0.3048^2 m^2

960 m^2 * (1 ft^2 / 0.3048^2 m^2)

Square meters cancel out, we are left with square feet:

960 * (1 ft^2 / 0.3048^2) = 10333.354 ft^2

Now, find how many gallons of paint by dividing by 200 square feet:

10333.354 ft^2 / 200 =~ 51.66 gal

Round up to the nearest whole number:

51.66 =~ 51 gal
