PLS HELP. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT! Is the first step in solving x-1 squared=8 different from the first step of solving x

squared-1=8? Explain
A. Yes, in the first equation, start by subtracting 8 from both sides to set the equation equal to zero, but in the second equation, start by adding 1 to both sides to isolate the radical.


B. Yes, in the first equation, start by squaring both sides to eliminate the radical, but in the second equation, start by adding 1 to both sides to isolate the radical.

C. No, to solve either equation, square both sides to eliminate all radicals.


D. No, to solve either equation, isolate the radical by adding 1 to both sides.

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First Equation. (x - 1)² = 8

1. (x - 1) = √8

2. x - 1 + 1 = 2√3 + 1

3. x = 2√3 + 1

3.

Second Equation. x² - 1 = 8

1. x² - 1 + 1 = 8 + 1

2. x² = 9

3. x = ±3

Is anyone good at geometry if so can you help me please ?
Pachacha [2.7K]

The arcs FA, AB, and <u>BF</u> make up the entire circle, so their measures sum to 360°:

arcFA + arcAB + arcBF = 360°   →   arcBF = 360° - 160° - 140° = 60°

By the inscribed angle theorem, angle BAF has measure equal to half of that of arc BF, so

angleBAF = 30°

By the secant-tangent theorem (not sure if there's an official name for it), the measure of angle ACF is equal to half the difference of the arcs it intercepts, namely BF and FA, so that

angleACF = 1/2 (arcFA - arcBF) = 1/2 (160° - 60°) = 50°

Now use the law of sines for solve for FA:

sin(angleACF) / FA = sin(angleBAF) / FC

sin(50°) / FA = sin(30°) / 10

FA = 10 sin(50°) / sin(30°) ≈ 15.3

Convert the scientific notation into a standard form number, <br> 1.23 x 10-5
marusya05 [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\\text{therefore}\ 10^{-5}=\dfrac{1}{10^5}=\dfrac{1}{100000}=0.00001\\\\1.23\cdot10^{-5}=1.23\cdot0.00001=0.0000123

a\cdot10^{-n} - move the decimal point <em>n</em> place to the left

a\cdot10^n - move the decimal point <em>n</em> place to the right

Examples:

1.2\cdot10^5=1\underbrace{20000}_{5\to}=120,000\\\\1.2\cdot10^{-5}=0\underbrace{.00001}_{\leftarrow5}2=0.000012

Express sin A, cos A, and tan A as ratios ​
vlabodo [156]
<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3><h3>sqrt(3)/2,    1/2,   sqrt(3)</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

Sine of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side over the hypotenuse. For reference angle A, the opposite side is BC = 6sqrt(3). The hypotenuse is the longest side AB = 12

Sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(A) = BC/AB

sin(A) = 6sqrt(3)/12

sin(A) = sqrt(3)/2

---------------

Cosine is the ratio of the adjacent and hypotenuse

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(A) = AC/AB

cos(A) = 6/12

cos(A) = 1/2

---------------

Tangent is the ratio of the opposite and adjacent

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = BC/AC

tan(A) = 6sqrt(3)/6

tan(A) = sqrt(3)
