Answer:

-4x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out the sum, you have to add like terms.

This is how it would look like:

$-2x + 5x - 3x - 4x -7 - 6\\=3x - 3x - 4x - 13\\= -4x - 13$

After m months, the height of a plant is 10+3m millimeters. How tall is the plant after eight months? Three years?

Oksanka [162]

Why not start out by writing a linear relationship for the plant height?

h(m) = 10 + 3m, where h is the height in mm and m is the time in years, starting from zero (0).

After 8 months, the plant height is h(8) = 10 mm + 3(8) mm, or 34 mm.

After 3 years (36 months), the plant ht. is h(36) = 118 mm.

Find the exact value of cot(15degrees) using half angle formulas?

liubo4ka [24]

Double angle (or half angle, depending how you look at it) identities:

$\cos^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1+\cos x}2$

$\sin^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1-\cos x}2$

$\implies\cot^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{\cos^2\frac x2}{\sin^2\frac x2}=\dfrac{1+\cos x}{1-\cos x}$

So we have

$\cot^215^\circ=\dfrac{1+\cos30^\circ}{1-\cos30^\circ}=\dfrac{1+\frac{\sqrt3}2}{1-\frac{\sqrt3}2}$

$\implies\cot^215^\circ=7+4\sqrt3$

$\implies\cot15^\circ=\sqrt{7+4\sqrt3}=2+\sqrt3$

Note that when taking the square root, we should take into account that that could yield two possible solutions, but we know $\cos15^\circ>0$ and $\sin15^\circ>0$ , so it's also the case that $\cot15^\circ>0$ .
