Answer:

x = $\frac{8}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6(8x - 1) = 9(x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

48x - 6 = 9x + 18 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

39x - 6 = 18 ( add 6 to both sides )

39x = 24 ( divide both sides by 39 )

x = $\frac{24}{39}$ = $\frac{8}{13}$

k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10

===============================

Steps:

note: you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"

f(x) = x^2+3x-10

f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5

f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10

f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10

f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30

Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13

Factor and solve the equation below

x^2+13x+30 = 0

(x+10)(x+3) = 0

x+1 = 0 or x+3 = 0

x = -10 or x = -3

The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.

Four points are always coplanar if check all that apply

Elza [17]

Hey there,

Your question states: Four points are always coplanar if . . .

Your correct answer from the questions above would be they lie in the same place

The definition of the word $\boxed{coplanar}$ means : In the same place.

So . .Four points are always coplanar if they lie in the same place.

Hope this helps many.

Which of the following would be an acceptable first step in simplifying the expression sinx/1-sinx

Paha777 [63]

$\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\\\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
\\\\\\
\textit{also recall that }sin^2(\theta)+cos^2(\theta)=1\implies cos^2(\theta)=1-sin^2(\theta)\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf \cfrac{sin(x)}{1-sin(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)}{1-sin(x)}\cdot \cfrac{1+sin(x)}{1+sin(x)}\implies \stackrel{first~step}{\cfrac{sin(x)[1+sin(x)]}{[1-sin(x)][1+sin(x)]}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)[1+sin(x)]}{1^2-sin^2(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)[1+sin(x)]}{cos^2(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)+sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)}{cos^2(x)}+ \cfrac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\cdot \cfrac{1}{cos(x)}+\cfrac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}\implies tan(x)sec(x)+tan^2(x)
\\\\\\
tan(x)[sec(x)+tan(x)]$

Solve 4x + 5 = x + 26

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 7

Subtract 5 on both sides to get 4x = x + 21

then, subtract x from 4x and x is 1, so 3x = 21 then divide by 3 on both sides
