Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add -8 to -12. This equals -20.

2. Now you have -20/(-4)

3. Solve this by dividing -20 and -4.

4. Two negatives make a positive, so your answer would be 5.

Hope this helps

[Positive 5 or negative 5 depending on if your using PEMDAS]
-5 if your doing PEMDAS
Cuz You do division first -12/-4=3 Cuz a negative divided by a negative is positive
Then add 3 to -8 and that’s -5 since the 8 is negative and the three is positive we’re subtracting 3 from -8

But if your NOT doing PEMDAS then the answer is a positive 5
[-8+ (-12)= -20/-4= 5]

Solve 4 sinx + 9 cosx=0 for 0°

jonny [76]

4 sin(x) + 9 cos(x) = 0

4 sin(x) = -9 cos(x)

tan(x) = -9/4

x = arctan(-9/4) + nπ … … … (in radians)

x = arctan(-9/4) + 180n ° … … … (in degrees)

where n is any integer.

I'm guessing you're solving for x over some domain, probably 0° ≤ x < 360°. In that case, you would have two solutions for n = 1 and n = 2 of

x ≈ 113.96° and x ≈ 293.96°
