For which values of P and Q does the following equation have infinitely many solutions? Px-37=Qx-37
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The equation has infinitely many solutions for any value of P and Q such that P=Q.

Step-by-step explanation:

Px - 37 = Qx - 37

Px - Qx - 37 = -37

x (P-Q) = 0

==> P-Q=0 ==> P=Q

The quotient of a number and 5, less 10, is 3
sergejj [24]
Quotient is the result of division. Assign a variable to the unknown number. Let's make it x. Write the statement as an equation.
x/5 - 10 = 3

solve for x

x/5 - 10 = 3
x/5 = 3 + 10
x/5 = 13
x = 5 × 13
x = 65

Select the correct answer. For what value of x is sin x = cos 19º, where 0°&lt; x &lt; 90°? OA. 38° ° O B. 71° OC. 26° O D. 19°​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

x = 71°

Option B is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find for what value of x is sin\: x = cos 19^{\circ}, where 0°< x < 90°?

Solving:

sin\: x = cos\: 19^{\circ}\\Finding \:cos\: 19^{\circ}=0.94551\\Putting\:value:\\sin\:x=0.94551\\Now\:taking\:sin\:inverse\\x=sin^{-1}(0.94551)\\x=71^{\circ}

So, we get x = 71°

Option B is correct answer.

The angle of elevation from the top of a house to a jet flying 2 miles above the house is x radians. If d represents the horizon
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

d = 2cot(x) or d = 2/tan(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical distance from the jet to the top of the house represents the opposite side to the 'x' angle, while the horizontal distance, d, represents the adjacent side. Since we do not know the hypotenuse, the tangent and cotangent functions are the preferable choices:

tan (x) = \frac{2}{d}\\d = \frac{2}{tan (x) }\\cot (x) = \frac{d}{2} \\d= 2cot(x)

Therefore, the distance 'd' can be expressed as d = 2cot(x) or d = 2/tan(x).
