Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert all the secants and cosecants to cosine and sine, respectively. Recall that csc(x)=1/sin(x) and sec(x)=1/cos(x).

Thus:

\frac{sec(x)}{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{csc(x)cos^2(x)}

=\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{1}{sin(x)}cos^2(x) }

Let's do the first part first: (Recall how to divide fractions)

\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos(x)} \cdot \frac{1}{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}

For the second term:

\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)} } =\frac{sin(x)}{1} \cdot\frac{sin(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}

So, all together: (same denominator; combine terms)

\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}-\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{1-sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}

Note the numerator; it can be derived from the Pythagorean Identity:

sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1; cos^2(x)=1-sin^2(x)

Thus, we can substitute the numerator:

\frac{1-sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{cos^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=1

Everything simplifies to 1.

Complete the square to transform the expression x2 + 4x + 2 into the form a(x − h)2 + k.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x^2 + 4x)      + 2

Take 1/2 of the linear term 4/2 = 2 and square that result. 2^2 = 4.

Put it after 4x

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4)   +2  Subtract what you put inside the brackets on the outside.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) + 2 - 4      Combine the right.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) - 2            Express the brackets as a square.

y = (x + 2)^2 - 2

That's your answer

a = 1

h = 2

k = -2

is hanging birdhouses on her ​fence, which includes one red post. The first birdhouse is 27.7 in. to the right of the red post.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

3 inches to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

The first birdhouse is 27.7 inches to the right

The second birdhouse is 24.9 inches to the left  or -24.9  ( left is negative)

The distance between is  found by adding the distances

27.7 - (24.9)

27.7-24.9 =2.8

2.8

Rounding to the nearest integer

3 inches apart

Using integers

28 - (25)

3 inches
