Answer:

a) x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{3}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{5\pi}{3}\,rad, b) x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{3\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{3} = \frac{5\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{4} = \frac{7\pi}{4} \,rad

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We proceed to solve the expression by algebraic and trigonometrical means:

1) 3\cdot \sec x + 2 = 8

2) 3\cdot \sec x = 6

3) \sec x = 2

4) \frac{1}{\cos x} = 2

5) \cos x = \frac{1}{2}

6) x = \cos^{-1} \frac{1}{2}

Cosine has positive values in first and fourth quadrants. Then, we have the following two solutions:

x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{3}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{5\pi}{3}\,rad

b) We proceed to solve the expression by algebraic and trigonometrical means:

1) 6\cdot \cos^{2} x = 3

2) \cos^{2} x = \frac{1}{2}

3) \cos x = \pm\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

4) x = \cos^{-1} \left(\pm \frac{\sqrt {2}}{2} \right)

There is one solution for each quadrant. That is to say:

x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{2} = \frac{3\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{3} = \frac{5\pi}{4}\,rad, x_{4} = \frac{7\pi}{4} \,rad

Find the 70th term of the following arithmetic sequence.<br><br> 12,17,22,27,...
nikdorinn [45]
Since it starts at 12 and is increasing by 5 each time, the 70th term will be;
12 + 5(70)
12 + 350
362

362 is the 70th term of the sequence.

The number of typing errors made by a typist has a Poisson distribution with an average of five errors per page. If more than fi
xeze [42]

Answer:

0.61596

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

λ = 5 (5 errors per page)

Poisson distribution formula :

P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!

Probability that page does not need to be retyped means that error on page is less than or equal to 5

P(x ≤ 5) = p(x = 5) + p(x = 4) +... + p(x = 0)

The individual probabilities can be obtained using the formula above or the use of a calculator

P(x ≤ 5) = 0.17547 + 0.17547 + 0.14037 + 0.08422 + 0.03369 + 0.00674

P(x ≤ 5) = 0.61596
