There are an infinite number of possibilities.
Here's one:

You can formulate anything here as long as you can substitute x for -2 and you get the right answer (IE both sides of the equation balance).

Examples:
x + 2 = 0
x + 4 = 2
or even something like
x + y = -2 - y

Verify the identity: (1+tan^2u)(1-sin^2u)=1

ddd [48]

=> The first expression on the left: (1 + tan²)

we know that tangent = sin/cos
so tan² = sin²/cos²
the expression is (1 + sin²/cos²)

=> The second expression on the left: (1 - sin²)

we know that (sin² + cos²) = 1
subtract sin² from each side,
and we have (1 - sin²) = (cos²)

=> Multiply the massaged form of the two expressions:

(1 + tan²) (1 - sin²) = (1 + sin²/cos²) (cos²) = (cos² + sin²) = 1 qed

The graph shows the relationship between the total cost and the number of erasers bought at the student store. Which statement i

Sphinxa [80]

The statement in option D is TRUE.
From the graph, you can see that one eraser cost 50 cent and all the eraser cost the same. Following the graph, you will observe that, when the total cost of the eraser is $3.5 on the vertical axis, the corresponding point on the horizontal axis is 7.
That particular plot on the graph is telling you that when seven erasers are bought, the total cost is $3.5.
