Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that (5,k) lies on the line that has the equation of 2x + y = 9. So in order to find k, you have to substitute the coordinates into the equation :

$2x + y = 9$

Let x = 5,

Let y = k,

$2(5) + k = 9$

$10 + k = 9$

$k = 9 - 10$

$k = - 1$

Given tan theta =9, use trigonometric identities to find the exact value of each of the following:_______

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$(a)\ \sec^2(\theta) = 82$

$(b)\ \cot(\theta) = \frac{1}{9}$

$(c)\ \cot(\frac{\pi}{2} - \theta) = 9$

$(d)\ \csc^2(\theta) = \frac{82}{81}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\tan(\theta) = 9$

Required

Solve (a) to (d)

Using tan formula, we have:

$\tan(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$

This gives:

$\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent} = 9$

Rewrite as:

$\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent} = \frac{9}{1}$

Using a unit ratio;

$Opposite = 9; Adjacent = 1$

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

$Hypotenuse^2 = Opposite^2 + Adjacent^2$

$Hypotenuse^2 = 9^2 + 1^2$

$Hypotenuse^2 = 81 + 1$

$Hypotenuse^2 = 82$

Take square roots of both sides

$Hypotenuse =\sqrt{82}$

So, we have:

$Opposite = 9; Adjacent = 1$

$Hypotenuse =\sqrt{82}$

Solving (a):

$\sec^2(\theta)$

This is calculated as:

$\sec^2(\theta) = (\sec(\theta))^2$

$\sec^2(\theta) = (\frac{1}{\cos(\theta)})^2$

Where:

$\cos(\theta) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

$\cos(\theta) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{82}}$

So:

$\sec^2(\theta) = (\frac{1}{\cos(\theta)})^2$

$\sec^2(\theta) = (\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{82}}})^2$

$\sec^2(\theta) = (\sqrt{82})^2$

$\sec^2(\theta) = 82$

Solving (b):

$\cot(\theta)$

This is calculated as:

$\cot(\theta) = \frac{1}{\tan(\theta)}$

Where:

$\tan(\theta) = 9$ ---- given

So:

$\cot(\theta) = \frac{1}{\tan(\theta)}$

$\cot(\theta) = \frac{1}{9}$

Solving (c):

$\cot(\frac{\pi}{2} - \theta)$

In trigonometry:

$\cot(\frac{\pi}{2} - \theta) = \tan(\theta)$

Hence:

$\cot(\frac{\pi}{2} - \theta) = 9$

Solving (d):

$\csc^2(\theta)$

This is calculated as:

$\csc^2(\theta) = (\csc(\theta))^2$

$\csc^2(\theta) = (\frac{1}{\sin(\theta)})^2$

Where:

$\sin(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$

$\sin(\theta) = \frac{9}{\sqrt{82}}$

So:

$\csc^2(\theta) = (\frac{1}{\frac{9}{\sqrt{82}}})^2$

$\csc^2(\theta) = (\frac{\sqrt{82}}{9})^2$

$\csc^2(\theta) = \frac{82}{81}$

6x – 3y = 8

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The linear equation where:</em>

$\large \boldsymbol {} \sf y=\underbrace{m}_{slope }x \ +\underbrace{b} _{y -intersept}$

Solution :

$\displaystyle \sf \#13. \\\\ 6x-3y=8 \\\\\ -3y=8-6x \\\\y=-\frac{8-6x}{3} \\\\ \boxed{\sf y=2x-2\frac{1}{3} }} \\\\ slope =2 \\\\ y-intersept =-2\frac{1}{3} \\\\-------------$

$\sf \#14 . \\\\\\ 7x=5y+2 \\\\5y=7x-2 \\\\y =\dfrac{7x-2}{5} \\\\ \boxed{\sf y=1,4x-0,4} \\\\slope = 1,4 \\\\y-intersept =-0,4 \\\\---------------$

$\dispalystye \sf \#15. \\\\ -6y+4x=8 \ |\div2 \\\\-3y+2x=4 \\\\ y=-\dfrac{4-2x}{3} \\\\ y=\boxed{\sf \frac{2x-4}{3} } \\\\slope = \dfrac{2}{3} \\\\ y-intersept = -\dfrac{4}{3 }\\\\ -----------------$

$\sf \#16 .\\\\ x+y=2x+3 \\\\y=2x-x+3 \\\\\boxed{\sf y=1\cdot x+3} \\\\slope =1 \\\\y-intersept =3$

To solve the equation 2x - 6 = 14, first

Anna [14]

2x - 6 = 14

Add 6 to both sides to isolate the x

2x = 20

Divide 2 to both sides since x is multipled to x

x = 10

To check your work plug 10 into the equation

2(10) -6 = 14

20 - 6 = 14

14 = 14

and it works

-1 1/3 divided by 2 2/5

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

-5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 times 1 is -1 so -1/3

2 times 2 is 4 so 4/5

-1/3 divided by 4/5

to make it easier we will write like this:

-1/3 times 5/4

-1 times 5=-5

3 times 4=12

so the final answer is -5/12
