Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can tell that the pattern is in a decreasing even no. order. So, the no.s are in this following.

18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2

6 0

So we see that the first term is 18 and the second is 16. It goes down by 2 each time. The 'zeroth' term is 2 more than the first one.
So, the nth term is (-2n+20).
Test:
When n=4
-2*4+20=12. This is right because the fourth number is 12, as we see.

Solve the trigonometric equation for all values: -7 < or equal to x < 7 Question: Cot 1/2x-1=0

mezya [45]

Answer:

x =90

Step-by-step explanation:

Cot 1/2x-1=0

Add 1 to both sides

Cot 1/2x = 0+1

Cot 1/2x = 1

1/tan1/2x = 1

Tan 1/2x = 1

1/2x = arctan1

1/2x =45

x = 45×2

x = 90

Hence the value of x is 90
