Answer:

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4 - x) = 12x - 3

Distribute the -2

-8 + 2x = 12x -3

Add 3 to both sides

-5 + 2x = 12x

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4 - x) = 12x – 3

-8+2x=12x-3

+8 +8

2x=12x+5

-12x -12x

-10x=5

/-10 /-10

= -1/2

take both of sides paranthesis square

(2a+7b)^2=(11)^2

4a^2+2.4a.7b+49b^2=121

4a^2+49b^2+56.2=121

4a^2+49b^2=9

Which choices are real numbers? Check all that apply.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponents with fractions in them are really just radical notation in a different form. You've probably seen the square root sign.

That can be written as

x^(1/2)

...and when you take an even root of a negative number, there is no real answer. (2 is an even number).

Looking at the answer choices here, we can see that B and D use even roots, so they will give non-real answers.

So, A and C are the answer choices to select.

Help me please. How to prove this ?

podryga [215]

Answer:

First, you want to divide the numerator and denominator by the cosine(x), and afterwards, it looks like this...

$\frac{tan~x+1}{tan~x-1}$

Include 45 as one of the parameters and correlate with tan.

$\frac{tan~x+tan~45}{tan~x-tan~45}$

Next, you want to multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator, in this case, tan x + tan 45.

Lastly, simplify, and you have the answer as tan(45 + x)
