4 shelves of consecutive even numbers
x , x + 2, x + 4, x + 6

5 ft = 60 inches

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 60....combine like terms
4x + 12 = 60
4x = 60 - 12
4x = 48
x = 48/4
x = 12 <==== one 12 inches

x + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14 <== one is 14 inches
x + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16 <== one is 16 inches
x + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 <== one is 18 inches

Over the interval [0,2pi), what are the solutions to cos(2x) = cos(x)? check all that apply​
kykrilka [37]

\cos(2x)  =  \cos(x)

Solution (1)

2x = x + 2k\pi

2x - x = 2k\pi

x = 2k\pi

for k=0 / for k=1 / for k=-1

x=0 / x=2π / x=-2π

acc / acc / rej

solution (2)

2x =  - x  + 2k\pi

2x + x = 2k\pi

3x = 2k\pi

x =  \frac{2k\pi}{3}

for k=0 / for k=1 / for k=-1

x=0 / x=2π/3 / x=-2π/3

acc / acc / rej

Note that i'm trying values of K which make the answer belong to our interval;

So our solution which i will represent as a set is;

S € {0,2π/3,2π}
