Solve 2cos2x + cosx − 1 = 0 for x over the interval [0, 2pi ).

Mathematics

2cos^2x+cosx-1 = 0

2cos^2x + 2cosx - cosx - 1 = 0

(2cos^2x + 2cosx) - (cosx + 1) = 0

2cosx(cosx + 1) - 1(cosx + 1) = 0

(cosx + 1)(2cosx - 1) = 0

cosx+1 = 0 or 2cosx-1 = 0

cosx+1 = 0 gives cosx = -1, x = PI

2cosx-1 = 0 gives cosx = 1/2, x = PI/3 or x = 5PI/3

answer: x = PI/3 or x = PI or x = 5PI/3

Can anyone show me this in verbal form?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

2 * (x + 2) = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the unknown number x. "A number and 2" means that we need to add the numbers, therefore it would be x + 2. "Twice" means 2 times a quantity so "twice a number and 2" would be 2 * (x + 2). "Is" denotes that we need to use the "=" sign and because 50 comes after "is", we know that 50 goes on the right side of the "=" so the final answer is 2 * (x + 2) = 50.
