For the functions f(x)=−7x^2−x and g(x)=9x^2−4x, find (f−g)(x) and (f−g)(1)

musickatia [10]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=-7x^2-x\\g(x)=9x^2-4x\\(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\(f-g)(x)=(-7x^2-x)-(9x^2-4x)\\(f-g)(x)=-7x^2-x-9x^2+4x\\(f-g)(x)=-16x^2+3x\\\\(f-g)(1)=-16(1)^2+3(1)\\(f-g)(1)=-16+3=-13$

cos theta = 4/5, 0˚< theta < 90˚ use the information given to find sin2theta, cos2theta, and tan 2theta

NikAS [45]

First calculate $\sin\theta$ .

$\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1\\\\\sin^2\theta=1-\cos^2\theta\\\\\sin^2\theta=1-\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^2\\\\\\\sin^2\theta=1-\dfrac{16}{25}\\\\\\\sin^2\theta=\dfrac{9}{25}\quad|\sqrt{(\dots)}\\\\\\\sin\theta=\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{25}}\\\\\\\boxed{\sin\theta=\dfrac{3}{5}}$

We take positive value of sinθ because 0° < θ < 90°
Now we could calculate sin2θ, cos2θ and tan2θ:

$\sin2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta=2\cdot\dfrac{3}{5}\cdot\dfrac{4}{5}=\dfrac{2\cdot3\cdot4}{5\cdot5}=\dfrac{24}{25}\\\\\\\cos2\theta=\cos^2\theta-\sin^2\theta=\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)^2-\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^2=\dfrac{16}{25}-\dfrac{9}{25}=\dfrac{7}{25}\\\\\\
\tan2\theta=\dfrac{\sin2\theta}{\cos2\theta}=\dfrac{\frac{24}{25}}{\frac{7}{25}}=\dfrac{24\cdot25}{7\cdot25}=\dfrac{24}{7}=3\dfrac{3}{7}$
