Solve 4 cos2x-3 = 0 for all real values of x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
vichka [17]3 years ago
3 0

4 cos² x - 3 = 0

4 cos² x = 3

cos² x = 3/4

cos x = ±(√3)/2

Fixing the squared cosine doesn't discriminate among quadrants.  There's one in every quadrant

cos x = ± cos(π/6)

Let's do plus first.  In general, cos x = cos a has solutions x = ±a + 2πk integer k

cos x = cos(π/6)

x = ±π/6 + 2πk

Minus next.

cos x = -cos(π/6)

cos x = cos(π - π/6)

cos x = cos(5π/6)

x = ±5π/6 + 2πk

We'll write all our solutions as

x = { -5π/6, -π/6, π/6, 5π/6 } + 2πk integer k

Anna35 [415]

The linear equation B. y = -x +7.5 best describes the given model. The mood rating for a student that spent 5.5 hours online would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; We plot the points that fall on the line and that lie on an exact x or y coordinate. The following 4 points are plotted (0.5, 7), (2, 5.5), (2.5, 5) and (3.5, 4). We substitute the values of x in the given equations to see which best describes the model.

Step 2; When y = x + 7.5, we get the coordinates as (0.5, 8), (2, 9.5), (2.5, 10) and (3.5, 11).

When y = -x + 7.5, the coordinates are (0.5, 7), (2, 5.5), (2.5, 5) and (3.5, 4).

When y = \frac{-1x}{2} + 7.5, the coordinates are (0.5, 7.25), (2, 6.5), (2.5, 6.25) and        (3.5, 5.75).

So equation 2 has the closest values to the actaul graph.

Step 3; By substituting x = 5.5, y = -(5.5) + 7.5 = 7.5 - 5.5 = 2.
