Answer:

x= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We have the expression as

(x+1)/(x+1)= 1/2​

let us first cross multiply

2(x+1)=(x+1)

2x+2=x+1

collect like terms

2x-x=1-2

x= -1

Hence the value of x=-1

Please someone help me to prove this. ​
morpeh [17]

Answer:  see proof below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the Double Angle Identity: sin 2Ф = 2sinФ · cosФ

Use the Sum/Difference Identities:

sin(α + β) = sinα · cosβ + cosα · sinβ

cos(α - β) = cosα · cosβ + sinα · sinβ

Use the Unit circle to evaluate: sin45 = cos45 = √2/2

Use the Double Angle Identities:   sin2Ф = 2sinФ · cosФ

Use the Pythagorean Identity: cos²Ф + sin²Ф = 1

<u />

<u>Proof LHS → RHS</u>

LHS:                                  2sin(45 + 2A) · cos(45 - 2A)

Sum/Difference: 2 (sin45·cos2A + cos45·sin2A) (cos45·cos2A + sin45·sin2A)

Unit Circle:    2[(√2/2)cos2A + (√2/2)sin2A][(√2/2)cos2A +(√2/2)·sin2A)]  

Expand:        2[(1/2)cos²2A  + cos2A·sin2A + (1/2)sin²2A]

Distribute:              cos²2A   + 2cos2A·sin2A + sin²2A  

Pythagorean Identity:    1 + 2cos2A·sin2A

Double Angle:                1 + sin4A

LHS = RHS:  1 + sin4A = 1 + sin4A   \checkmark

A family has two cars. During one particular week, the first car consumed 15 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Car 1 : 40 miles per gallon

Car 2: 25 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

family has two cars. During one particular week, the first car consumed 15 gallons of gas. The second car consumed 25 gallons of gas. The two cars Drove a combined total of 1475 miles and the sum of their fuel efficiency was 65 miles per gallon. What were the fuel efficiency of each of the cars that week

Given that :

Fuel efficiency , car 1 = x

Fuel efficiency , car 2 = y

x + y = 65 - - (1)

15x + 35y = 1475 - - - (2)

x = 65 - y

15(65-y) + 35y

975 - 15y + 35y = 1475

20y = 14875 - 975

20y = 500

y = 25

Put y = 25 in (1)

x + y = 65

x + 25 = 65

x = 65 - 25

x = 40

What is the slope of the line given by the equation below?y + 5 = -22(x + 2)
tatyana61 [14]
If you use the distributive property and multiply -22 by x and 2 you will come out with y+5= -22x-44. Then subtract 5 and it would cancel out and you subtract it from the -44. -44-5 is equal to -49. So your equation would be y= -22x-49. This means that your slope would be -22.
