Answer:

The value of m is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to set up an algebraic equation, then solve.

(-3 * m) + 7 = -20

-3m + 7 = -20

Subtract 7 from both sides so we can get -3m by itself. We are isolating it.

-3m + 7 - 7 = -20 - 7

-3m = -27

Divide by -3 on both sides.

m = 9

The value of m is 9.

True [87]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tan x\cos x=\sin x\\\\\tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\\\\\text{Therefore}\\\\\tan x\cos x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\cdot\cos x\qquad\text{cancel}\ \cos x\\\\\tan x\cos x=\sin x\\\\\text{For}\ x\neq\dfrac{\pi}{2}+k\pi},\ k\in\mathbb{Z}$

According to Greek mathematician Zeno, if each bounce of a ball is half the height of the bounce before it,the ball will never s

vovikov84 [41]

From the diagram associated with this question it can be seen that the first bounce was 1 units high, thus the second bounce is 1 / 2 = 0.5 units high and the third bounce is 0.5 / 2 = 0.25 = 1/4 units high.

Given that B represents the second bounce and C represents the first bounce, the <span>fractions in hundredths that should be written at points B is 0.50 while at point C is 0.25</span>

Does it open up or down and is it shifted to the left 2 units or to the right 2 units of function g(x)

mixas84 [53]

It opens down if the lead coefficient is negative

And it shifts to the left by two. Always use the opposite of what is in parenthesis, which in this case is 2.
