12.6 repeating is the equivalent of 12.666666666666 and so on but if you rounded, it would be 12.67. So, compare 12.67 and 12.63. 12.67 is larger.

She is wrong because 12.66 is greater than 12.63. The last digit of 12.66 (6) is larger than the last digit of 12.63 (3) Even if 12.6 keeps on going (12.66666.....) 6 will always be bigger than 3.
Hope that helped :)

Can someone show me how to factor this please?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \theta = \left\{\frac{7\pi}{6}, \, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{11\pi}{6}\right\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

$2\sin ^2 \theta + 3\sin \theta + 1 = 0$

In the interval [0, 2π).

Notice that this is in quadratic form. Namely, by letting u = sin(θ), we acquire:

$\displaystyle 2u^2 + 3u + 1 = 0$

Factor:

$\displaystyle (2u+1)(u+1) = 0$

By the Zero Product Property:

$\displaystyle 2u + 1 = 0\text{ or } u + 1 = 0$

Solve for each case:

$\displaystyle u = -\frac{1}{2} \text{ or } u = -1$

Back-substitute:

$\displaystyle \sin \theta = -\frac{1}{2} \text{ or } \sin \theta =-1$

Use the Unit Circle. Hence, our three solutions in the interval [0, 2π) are:

$\displaystyle \theta = \left\{\frac{7\pi}{6}, \, \frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{11\pi}{6}\right\}$
