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

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.<br> 2x-y=3<br> x+5y=14
adoni [48]
Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1

Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2

Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3

• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2

(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14

6y = 14 – 3/2

6y = 25/2

y = 25/12

• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3

x = (25/12 + 3/2)

x = 43/12

Please help
Vlada [557]

We know that

When we have

f(x)=ax^2 +bx+c

Here ,

a is the leading coefficient

c is the constant term

so, we can compare it with

f(x)=5x^2-7x+6

so, we get

a=5,c=6

so,

leading coefficient is 5

constant term is 6......................Answer
