ANSWER

B.

- \cos^{2} x

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

(sin x + 1)(sin x − 1)

Note that:

(x + 1)(x - 1) =  {x}^{2}  - 1

This implies that,

( \sin \: x + 1)( \sin \: x - 1)  =   \sin^{2} x - 1

We can factor -1 on the right hand side to get,

( \sin \: x + 1)( \sin \: x - 1)  =    - (1 - \sin^{2} x )

Note that from the Pythagorean Identity

1 - \sin^{2} x = \cos^{2} x

We apply this identity to obtain:

( \sin \: x + 1)( \sin \: x - 1)  = - \cos^{2} x

The correct choice is B

Lincoln middle school plans to collect more than 2,000 cans of food in a food drive. So far, 668 cans have been collected. WRITE
AURORKA [14]
Let x be the unknown number.

7x + 668 < 2000     => 7x plus 668 is less than 2000

where:
7x => x represents the number of cans to be collected in 7 days
668 is the number of cans already collected.
2000 is the target number of cans.

7x  +  668    <    2000
 <u>       - 668           -668</u>
7x                <   1332
<u>÷7                        ÷7</u>
x                  <    190.30
or
x < 190

To check:

7x + 668 < 2000
7(190) + 668 < 2000
1330 + 668 < 2000
1998 < 2000
