((1/3)x - 5) + 171 = x
combine like terms...move the x’s to one side...
166 = (2/3)x
get x by itself...
166 (3/2) = x
249 = x

Answer: cotθ

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

tanθ * cos²θ * csc²θ

= $\dfrac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} * \dfrac{cos\theta*cos\theta}{} *\dfrac{1}{sin\theta*sin\theta}$

= $\dfrac{cos\theta}{sin\theta}$

= cotθ

Answer: B

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The parent graph is y = x²

The new graph y = -x² + 3 should have the following:

reflection over the x-axis
vertical shift up 3 units

Answers:

a. Quadrant II
b. negative
c. $\dfrac{\pi}{6}$
d. C
e. $-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

$\dfrac{17\pi}{6} - \dfrac{12\pi}{6} = \dfrac{5\pi}{6}$

a) Quadrant 2 is: $\dfrac{\pi}{2} < \theta < \pi$

b) In Quadrant 2, cos is negative and sin is positive, so tan is negative

c) $\pi-\dfrac{5\pi}{6}$ = $\dfrac{\pi}{6}$

d) the reference line is above the x-axis so it is negative --> $-tan\dfrac{\pi}{6}$

e) $tan(\dfrac{5\pi}{6})=\dfrac{1}{-\sqrt{3}}=-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

If Jesse wants to buy a $75,000 10-year term life insurance policy, and the annual premium rate (per $1000 of face value) for hi

Komok [63]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is given that it costs $2.34 for every $1000 face value, and it was given that he wanted to buy a $75000 plan, multiplying $2.34 by 75 (75000 includes 75 $1000 face value), it should yield us the annual premium.

2.34 * 75 = $175.50

We don't need to multiply it by 10 years as only the annual premium is being solved for.
