Find all solutions to the equation. cos^2x + 2 cos x + 1 = 0

Mathematics

Answer:

x = pi, 3pi, 5pi  etc

x = -pi, -3pi, -5pi etc

Step-by-step explanation:

cos^2 x + 2 cos x + 1 = 0

replace cos x with m

m^2 + 2m +1 = 0

solve by factoring  (this is a^2 +2ab+b^2 = (a+b)^2  where a =m and b=1)

(m+1)^2=0

take the square root of each side

m+1 =0

m=-1

now replace m with cos x

cos x = -1

take arccos  of each side

arccos cos x = arccos (-1)

x = pi, 3pi, 5pi  etc

A bag contains 6 red balls, 4 green balls, and 3 blue balls. If we choose a ball, then another ball without putting the first on
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 + 4 + 3 = 13 balls all together.

If the first one is green, this will happen with a probability of 4/13. Now there are 12 balls left

There are 6 red balls. 6/12 = 1/2

The probability of the way this happens is 1/2 * 4/13 = 2/13

A Delivery service charges $25 per pound for making a delivery. If there is an additional 8% sales tax, what is the cost of deli
mafiozo [28]

The cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound?$21.60.  

<h3>How to find the delivery cost?</h3>

Let x = the number of pounds

Thus, we can say that;

Cost = 25x * 1.08

Since we want to find the cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound, the we will put 4/5 for x to get;

Cost = (25 * 4/5) * 1.08

Cost = 20 * 1.08

Cost = 21.6

The delivery cost would be $21.60.
