Whats the answer to 1/2(5×-8)=-9

Mathematics
1 answer:
REY [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

I do not know if that x is a multiply sign or a variable so I'm going to answer both

If the x is a multiplication sign then the answer is -20 = -9

If the x is a variable then the answer is x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(5 * -8) = -9

(1 * 5 * -8)/2 = -9

(5 * -8)/2 = -9

-40/2 = -9

-20 = -9

-20 ≠ -9

1/2(5x - 8) = -9

1(5x -8)/2 = -9

(5x - 8)/2 = -9

2((5x - 8)/2) = -9 * 2

2(5x - 8)/2 = -9 * 2

5x - 8 = -9 * 2

5x - 8 = -18

    +8    +8

------------------

5x = -10

x = -10/5

x = -2

Can someone explain to me why are we adding 2kpi when we are doing zeros for sin and cos, but adding kpi when doing zeros for tg
makvit [3.9K]

on the first exercise, you got a solution angle of π/18, that's a good solution for the I Quadrant only, however, on a circle, we have angles that go from 0 to 2π, however we can always keep on going around and continute to 2π + π/2 or 3π or 4π, or 115π/3 or 1,000,000π/18 and so on, and we're really just going around the circle many times over, getting a larger and larger angle, same circular motion.

π/18 on that exercise works for the I Quadrant, however if we continue and go around say 2π, we'll find that 2π/3 + π/18 is a coterminal angle with π/18, and thus that angle has also the same sine value.

π/18 + 2kπ/3 , where k = integer, is a way to say, all angles around the circle that look like this have the same sine, namely

π/18 + 2(1)π/3

π/18 + 2(2)π/3

π/18 + 2(3)π/3

π/18 + 2(5)π/3

π/18 + 2(99999999)π/3

.....

so using the "k" as some sequence multiplier, is a generic notational way to say, "all these angles".

you'll also find that "n" is used as well for the same notation, say for example

2π/3  + 2πn.

Which number is the same distance from 0 on a number line as 3/2 answers -3 -3/2 -2/3 2/3 3
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find its distance away from 0, then just find its opposite.

On the number line if you graph 3/2,  its opposite will be -3/2

The equation of a line is y-4=3(x+2) , which of the following is a point on the line?
kramer
Y-4=3(x+2)
y-4=3x+6

y = 3x +10

so in case of choise C. we get 

4 = 3*(-2) +10

4 = -6 +10

4 = 4 

hope this will help you
