What is the exact value of cos 112.5°?

1 answer:

3 0

We have 112.5 = 225/2; cos112.5 < 0 because 90 < 112.5 < 180;
cos 112.5 = cos(225/2);
We use the trigonometric formula: cos(x/2) = - $\sqrt{ \frac{1+cosx}{2} }$ ;
Then, cos(225/2) = - $\sqrt{ \frac{1+cos225}{2} }$ ;
We have the formula: cos(270 - x) = -sinx (because cos(a-b) = cosacosb + sinasinb);
Then, cos225 = cos(270-45) = -sin45 = - $\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{2} ;$
Finally, cos112.5 = - $\frac{ \sqrt{2- \sqrt{2} } }{2} ;$

1 foot = 12 inches, so now you add 3 inches until you get 12. you add 3, 4 times toget 12. 3+3=6+3=9+3=12 and do that again for the 2nd foot 3+3=6+3=9+3=12 you added 3, 4 times to get 12 twice so now add 4+4=8

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (6,2) (4,1)

Alisiya [41]

Answer: y=1/2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line that passes through the points, we need to find out slope, m.

$m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

We plug our points into this formula to find slope.

$m=\frac{1-2}{4-6} =\frac{-1}{-2} =\frac{1}{2}$

Our slope is 1/2. To find our y-intercept, b, we would plug any point into the equation for slope-intercept form.

y=mx+b

y=1/2x+b

1=1/2(4)+b

1=2+b

b=-1

Now that we know b, our equation is y=1/2x-1.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a) attached below

b) ( T,T )

c) The Pure-strategy Nash equilibria are : ( N,E ) and ( E,N )

d) The mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 1 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 )

while the mixed -strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 2 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A) write down the game in matrix form

let: E = exit at the industry immediately

T = exit at the end of the quarter

N = exit at the end of the next quarter

matrix is attached below

B) weakly dominated strategies is ( T,T )

C) Find the pure-strategy Nash equilibria

The Pure-strategy Nash equilibria are : ( N,E ) and ( E,N )

D ) Find the unique mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium

The mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 1 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 )

while the mixed -strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 2 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 ) since T is weakly dominated then the mixed strategy will be NE

Assume that P is the probability of firm 1 exiting immediately ( E )

and q is the probability of firm 1 staying till next term ( N ) ∴ q = 1 - P.

hence the expected utility of firm 2 choosing E = 0 while the expected utility of choosing N = 4p - 2q .

The expected utilities of E and N to firm 2 =

0 = 4p - 2q = 4p - 2 ( 1-p) = 6p -2 which means : p = 1/3 , q = 2/3
