Answer:

$a=0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide each term by $8x+ 7$ and simplify.

Hope this helps :)

a(8x + 7) = 4x + 3.5

8ax + 7a = 4x + 3.5

equating coefficients of x : 8a = 4 so a = 1/2

also 7a = 3.5 so a = 1/2

The value of a is 1/2

$\theta$ is in quadrant I, so $\cos\theta>0$ .

$x$ is in quadrant II, so $\sin x>0$ .

Recall that for any angle $\alpha$ ,

$\sin^2\alpha+\cos^2\alpha=1$

Then with the conditions determined above, we get

$\cos\theta=\sqrt{1-\left(\dfrac45\right)^2}=\dfrac35$

and

$\sin x=\sqrt{1-\left(-\dfrac5{13}\right)^2}=\dfrac{12}{13}$

Now recall the compound angle formulas:

$\sin(\alpha\pm\beta)=\sin\alpha\cos\beta\pm\cos\alpha\sin\beta$

$\cos(\alpha\pm\beta)=\cos\alpha\cos\beta\mp\sin\alpha\sin\beta$

$\sin2\alpha=2\sin\alpha\cos\alpha$

$\cos2\alpha=\cos^2\alpha-\sin^2\alpha$

as well as the definition of tangent:

$\tan\alpha=\dfrac{\sin\alpha}{\cos\alpha}$

Then

1. $\sin(\theta+x)=\sin\theta\cos x+\cos\theta\sin x=\dfrac{16}{65}$

2. $\cos(\theta-x)=\cos\theta\cos x+\sin\theta\sin x=\dfrac{33}{65}$

3. $\tan(\theta+x)=\dfrac{\sin(\theta+x)}{\cos(\theta+x)}=-\dfrac{16}{63}$

4. $\sin2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta=\dfrac{24}{25}$

5. $\cos2x=\cos^2x-\sin^2x=-\dfrac{119}{169}$

6. $\tan2\theta=\dfrac{\sin2\theta}{\cos2\theta}=-\dfrac{24}7$

7. A bit more work required here. Recall the half-angle identities:

$\cos^2\dfrac\alpha2=\dfrac{1+\cos\alpha}2$

$\sin^2\dfrac\alpha2=\dfrac{1-\cos\alpha}2$

$\implies\tan^2\dfrac\alpha2=\dfrac{1-\cos\alpha}{1+\cos\alpha}$

Because $x$ is in quadrant II, we know that $\dfrac x2$ is in quadrant I. Specifically, we know $\dfrac\pi2$ , so $\dfrac\pi4$ . In this quadrant, we have $\tan\dfrac x2>0$ , so

$\tan\dfrac x2=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\cos x}{1+\cos x}}=\dfrac32$

8. $\sin3\theta=\sin(\theta+2\theta)=\dfrac{44}{125}$

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 1.303639

Step-by-step explanation:

The t-score for a level of confidence $(1-\alpha)$ is given by :_

$t_{(df,\alpha/2)}$ , where df is the degree of freedom and $\alpha$ is the significance level.

Given : Level of significance : $1-\alpha:0.80$

Then , significance level : $\alpha: 1-0.80=0.20$

Sample size : $n=40$

Then , the degree of freedom for t-distribution: $df=n-1=40-1=39$

Using the normal t-distribution table, we have

$t_{(df,\alpha/2)}=t_{39,0.10}=1.303639$

Thus, the t-score should be used to find the 80% confidence interval for the population mean =1.303639
