Answer:

k = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation formula:

y = kx

Given:

x = 2

y = -10

Work:

y = kx

-10 = 2k

k = (-10)/2

k = -5

) f) 1 + cot²a = cosec²a

notsponge [240]

Answer:

It is an identity, proved below.

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you want to prove the identity. There are several ways to prove the identity but here I will prove using one of method.

First, we have to know what cot and cosec are. They both are the reciprocal of sin (cosec) and tan (cot).

$\displaystyle \large{\cot x=\frac{1}{\tan x}}\\\displaystyle \large{\csc x=\frac{1}{\sin x}}$

csc is mostly written which is cosec, first we have to write in 1/tan and 1/sin form.

$\displaystyle \large{1+(\frac{1}{\tan x})^2=(\frac{1}{\sin x})^2}\\\displaystyle \large{1+\frac{1}{\tan^2x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}}$

Another identity is:

$\displaystyle \large{\tan x=\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}}$

Therefore:

$\displaystyle \large{1+\frac{1}{(\frac{\sin x}{\cos x})^2}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}}\\\displaystyle \large{1+\frac{1}{\frac{\sin^2x}{\cos^2x}}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}}\\\displaystyle \large{1+\frac{\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}}$

Now this is easier to prove because of same denominator, next step is to multiply 1 by sin^2x with denominator and numerator.

$\displaystyle \large{\frac{\sin^2x}{\sin^2x}+\frac{\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}}\\\displaystyle \large{\frac{\sin^2x+\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}$

Another identity:

$\displaystyle \large{\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1}$

Therefore:

$\displaystyle \large{\frac{\sin^2x+\cos^2x}{\sin^2x}=\frac{1}{\sin^2x}\longrightarrow \boxed{ \frac{1}{\sin^2x}={\frac{1}{\sin^2x}}}$

Hence proved, this is proof by using identity helping to find the specific identity.

It’s not scaled. You can see it’s not the same shape as image A. 1 is only added to the height. If a shape is scaled, then the shape will remain the same, however it’s size will not. Therefore, the answer is “not a scaled copy of image A because 1 is added to the height”

Find the rate of change of the following table.

Serjik [45]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is measured by the slope of the line in this linear table.

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{3}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 2) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = $\frac{2-0}{3+3}$ = $\frac{2}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ ← rate of change
