Answer:

6 $\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-12 = x+7

4x-12+12 = x+7+12

4x = x+19

4x-x = x+19-x

3x=19

x = 6 $\frac{1}{3}$

And if we substitute the value of x into the equation 4x-12 = x+7,

we will get 13 $\frac{1}{3}$ = 13 $\frac{1}{3}$ in the end.

Hope this helps :)

Find the exact value of cot 7pi/4 & sec13pi/6 including quadrant location

First we will convert those radian angles to degrees, since my mind works better with degrees. Let's work one at a time. First, $\frac{7 \pi }{4} * \frac{180}{ \pi }=315$ . If we start at the positive x-axis and measure out 315 we end up in the 4th quadrant with a reference angle of 45 with the positive x-axis. The side across from the reference angle is -1, the side adjacent to the angle is 1, and the hypotenuse is sqrt2. The cotangent of this angle, then is 1/-1 which is -1. As for the second one, converting radians to degrees gives us that $\frac{13 \pi }{6} * \frac{180}{ \pi } =390$ . Sweeping out that angle has us going around the origin more than once and ending up in the first quadrant with a reference angle of 30° with the positive x-axis. The side across from the angle is 1, the side adjacent to the angle is √3, and the hypotenuse is 2. Therefore, the secant of that angle is 2/√3.
