Answer:

4cotα=tanα

4(1/tanα)=tanα

(4/tanα)=tanα

cross multiply

=> 4=tan²α

√4=√tan²α

±2=tanα

α=arc( tan) |2|

α=63.4° ( in first quadrant)

and

α=180+63.4=243.4 in the third quadrant

since we also found a negative answer( i.e –2) then α also lies in quadrants where it gives a negative value(i.e second and fourth quadrants)

α=180–63.4=116.6° in the second quadrant

α=360–63.4=296.6 in the fourth quadrant

therefore theta( in my case, alpha) lies in all four quadrants and is equal to:

α=63.4°,243.4°,116.6°and 296.6°

The table shows how much a store charges for certain numbers of pencils. Number of pencils (p) Cost (c) 4 $0.72 7 $1.26 12 $2.16

Arada [10]

Find the rate of change, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), from the data given...

(2.16-1.26)/(12-7)=0.18

(1.26-0.72)/(7-4)=0.18

Since the rate is constant, this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b. Furthermore, since 0 pencils cost 0, b=0, so the cost of the pencils is simply the number of pencils times 18 cents...

c(p)=0.18p (cost with respect to pencils is 0.18 times the number of pencils)

Help! Find the domain of the graph

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

[-8,4]

Step-by-step explanation:

you look at the x-axis. The end points of the graph are -8 and 4, thus the domain would be [-8,4] as it is always written in left to right or bottom to top value.

hope it helps.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The guard should be positioned at the safe

Step-by-step explanation:

The night watchmen should be positioned to guard whichever place gives the highest expected value to the thief.

The expected value of robbing the safe is:

$EV_{s} = \$ 6000*0.2\\EV_{s} = \$ 1200$
