Find the equation of the cosine graphed.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

C) y = -cos(x) +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The centerline is 2, so 2 is added. That leaves out choices A and B.

There is a minimum (not a maximum) at x=0, so the multiplier is negative, eliminating choice D.

The correct equation is that of C: y = -cos(x) +2.

Divid 15 into two parts such that the sum of their reciprocal is 3/10

emmasim [6.3K]

Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)

Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)

Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)

==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy

But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50

Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5

What are the steps to solve for: 1/5(x+5)=1/4(x-3)+1

andrew11 [14]

Step 1. Simplify $\frac{1}{5} (x+5)$ to $\frac{x+5}{5}$

$\frac{x+5}{5} = \frac{1}{4} (x-3)+1$

Step 2. Simplify $\frac{x+5}{5}$ to $1+ \frac{x}{5}$

$1+ \frac{x}{5} = \frac{1}{4} (x-3)+1$

Step 3. Simplify $\frac{1}{4} (x-3)$ to $\frac{x-3}{4}$

$1+ \frac{x}{5} = \frac{x-3}{4} +1$

Step 4. Cancel $1$ on both sides

$\frac{x}{5} = \frac{x-3}{4}$

Step 5. Multiply both sides by $20$ (the LCM of $5,4$ )

$4x=5(x-3)$

Step 6. Expand

$4x=5x-15$

Step 7. Subtract $5x$ from both sides

$4x-5x=-15$

Step 8. Simplify $4x-5x$ to $-x$

$-x=-15$

Step 9. Multiply both sides by $-1$

$x=15$

Done! :) Hope this helps! :)

How do I do this -9 - 16m = 7? What are the steps?

nordsb [41]

m = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-16m = 7 + 9

-16m = 16

m = 16 ÷ -16

m = -1
