They are the same. Example: If something costs 100$ and you found a coupon to get a 15% discount you will save: 15$ and your cost will be 100$-15$=85$ Hope this helped! Have a great day!

PLEASE can someone explain why The exact value of sec ( π/6) is 2 /√ 3 ??

Umnica [9.8K]

$\bf sec\left( \frac{\pi }{6} \right)\qquad recall\to sec(\theta)=\cfrac{1}{cos(\theta)}\qquad thus
\\\\
sec\left( \frac{\pi }{6}\right)\iff \cfrac{1}{cos\left( \frac{\pi }{6}\right)}
\\\\\\
\textit{check your Unit Circle for what the }cos\left( \frac{\pi }{6}\right)\ is
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{1}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies 
\cfrac{1}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\implies \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$

Bond [772]

He made a mistake in step #2. It seemed to be a trivial mistake because it involved signs, but it still had a great impact. Since step#2, his solution was already wrong.

Instead of
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = 1 + 48 = 49

What he did is
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = -1 + 48 = 47
