Answer:</h3>
a. -(3√13)/13
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The cosine can be found from the tangent by way of the secant.
tan(θ)² +1 = sec(θ)² = 1/cos(θ)²
Then ...
cos(θ) = ±1/√(tan(θ)² +1)
The <em>cosine is negative in the second quadrant</em>, so we will choose that sign.
cos(θ) = -1/√((-2/3)² +1) = -1/√(4/9 +1) = -1/√(13/9)
cos(θ) = -3/√13 = -(3√13)/13 . . . . . matches your selection A
The answer would be A. because two negatives equal a positive
We can solve this two different ways. I'll do both, and you choose which one makes the most sense:
We can divide the fraction 3/4 by 12. remember, when we divide fractions, we flip the second fraction and change the sign to multiplication:
3/4 ÷12 [starting equation]
3/4 x 1/12 [flip and change sign]
3/48 [now reduce]
1/16 Each step takes 1/16 of an hour.
1/16 x 60 = 3 3/4, or 3.75 minutes
Second way:
3/4 of an hour is 3/4 of 60...45 minutes.
Still, we divide out:
45 ÷ 12 [starting equation]
3 9/12 [divide with remainder]
3 3/4 minutes...3.75 minutes
