Two ocean beaches are being affected by erosion. The table shows the width, in feet, of each beach at high tide measured where 1

995 is represented by year 0.
Year number Western Beach width (in feet) Dunes Beach width (in feet)
0 100 20
5 90 45
10 80 70
11 78 75
12 76 80
15 70 95
Describe the patterns shown by the erosion data measurements shown for each of the beaches in the table.
Between which years will the beaches have approximately the same width?
Assuming these rates remain constant, what can you do to get a better approximation of when the two beaches will have the same width?

From the double-angle identity,

cos2x=2*sinx*cosx

we can rewritte our given equation as:

4sinxcosx-2cosx=0

By factoring 2cosx on the left hand side, we have

2cosx(2sinx-1)=0

This equation has 2 solutions when

\begin{gathered} cosx=0\text{ ...\lparen A\rparen} \\ and \\ 2sinx-1=0\text{ ...\lparen B\rparen} \end{gathered}

From equation (A), we obtain

x=\frac{\pi}{2}\text{ or }\frac{3\pi}{2}

and from equation (B), we have

\begin{gathered} sinx=\frac{1}{2} \\ which\text{ gives} \\ x=\frac{\pi}{6}\text{ or }\frac{5\pi}{6} \end{gathered}

On the other hand, we can find one more solution from the original equation by substituting x=0, that is,

\begin{gathered} 2ccos(2\times0)-2cos0=0 \\ which\text{ gives} \\ 2\times1-2\times1=0 \\ so\text{ 0=0} \end{gathered}

then, x=0 is another solution. In summary, we have obtained the following solutions:

\begin{gathered} x=0 \\ x=\frac{\pi}{2}\text{or}\frac{3\pi}{2}\text{ and } \\ x=\frac{\pi}{6}\text{or}\frac{5\pi}{6} \end{gathered}

However, the intersection of the last set is empty. So the unique solution is x=0 as we can corroborate on the following picture:

Therefore, the solution set is: {0}

For which value of a does the following system of equations have no solution? -x+6y=7 , -5x+10ay=32
dlinn [17]

Remark

If the lines are parallel, there are no solutions to the system of equations. Start with the equation you know the most about.

x + 6y = 7                Subtract x from both sides

x - x + 6y = 7 - x      Combine

6y =  - x + 7             Switch and divide by 6

y = -x / 6 + 7/6

The general equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope of the line.

m = - 1/6

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

Now look at the second equation

10ay - 5x = 32               Add 5x to both sides

10ay = 5x + 32              Divide by 10a

y = (5/10a)x + 32/(10a)  

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

Now you must make

5/10a = - 1/6                     Cross Multiply

5* 6 = - 10a * 1

30 = - 10a                        Divide by - 10

a = 30 / - 10

a = - 3

So these two equations will have no solution when a = - 3
