Answer:

<h2>a = 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear function in slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b=mx^1+b

We have

y=x^a-31

Therefore <em>a</em> must be equal to 1.

Simplify the expression ?

Answer:

The answer is cscx(cscx - 1) ⇒ the second answer

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ csc²x = cot²x + 1

∴ \frac{cot^{2}x+1-1 }{1+sinx}=\frac{cot^{2}x }{1+sinx}

Multiply the fraction by its conjugate 1 - sinx (up and down)

∴ \frac{cot^{2}x }{1+sinx}*\frac{1-sinx}{1-sinx}=\frac{cot^{2}x(1-sinx) }{1-sin^{2}x}

∵ 1 - sin²x = cox²x

∴ \frac{cot^{2}x(1-sinx) }{cos^{2}x }

∵ cot²x = cos²x/sin²x

∴ \frac{1-sinx}{sin^{x}}=\frac{1}{sin^{2}x}-\frac{sinx}{sin^{2}x}=csc^{2}x-cscx

Take cscx as a common factor

∴ cscx(cscx - 1)

What is the solution to the open sentence?  4y – 3 = y + 6   A. 1   B. 2   C. 3   D. 9
azamat
4y - 3 = y + 6 
Add 3 to both sides
4y = y + 9
Subtract y from both sides
3y = 9
Divide both sides by 3
y= 3
