Answer:

x = -2  y= -8 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is an equal number of y's, they cancel out when subtracting. You can put either equation on top. You will get same answer.

<u>To find x:</u>

<u>If you do (3x - 2y = 10) - (5x + 2y = 6​),</u> you will get -2x=4. Divide both sides by -2, and get x = -2.

<u>If you do (5x + 2y = 6​) - (3x - 2y = 10)</u>, you will get 2x=-4.Divide both sides by 2, and get x = -2.

<u>To find y:</u>

Substitute -2 for x in either equation. It doesn't matter.

<u>For 3(-2) - 2y = 10:</u>

3(-2) - 2y = 10 ––Multiply

-6 - 2y =10 ––Add 6 to both sides to get y alone

-2y = 16 ––Divide by -2

y = -8

<u>For 5x + 2y = 6​:</u>

5(-2) + 2y = 6​ ––Multiply

-10 + 2y = 6 ––Add 10 to both sides to get y alone

2y = 16 ––Divide by 2

y = 8

Based on Pythagorean identities, which equation is true? A. Sin^2 theta -1= cos^2 theta B. Sec^2 theta-tan^2 theta= -1 C. -cos^2
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

our basic Pythagorean identity is cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1

we can derive the 2 other using the listed above.

1. (cos²(x) + sin²(x))/cos²(x) = 1/cos²(x)

1 + tan²(x) = sec²(x)

2.(cos²(x) + sin²(x))/sin²(x) = 1/sin²(x)

cot²(x) + 1 = csc²(x)

A. sin^2 theta -1= cos^2 theta

this is false

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1

isolating cos²(x)

cos²(x) = 1-sin²(x), not equal to sin²(x)-1

B. Sec^2 theta-tan^2 theta= -1

1 + tan²(x) = sec²(x)

sec²(x)-tan(x) = 1, not -1

false

C. -cos^2 theta-1= sin^2

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1

sin²(x) = 1-cos²(x), our 1 is positive not negative, so false

D. Cot^2 theta - csc^2 theta=-1

cot²(x) + 1 = csc²(x)

isolating 1

1 = csc²(x) - cot²(x)

multiplying both sides by -1

-1 = cot²(x) - csc²(x)

TRUE

Find the value of x
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

<em>x=3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Angles and Lines</u>

We must recall:

  • The sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180°
  • Two linear angles add up to 180°

The image shows a triangle and the extension of its base to form two linear angles.

Note from the triangle, angle R is what it takes to get to 180°:

m\angle R=180-25x-(57+x)

From the line SQ, angle R what it takes to get to 180°. Thus:

m\angle R=180-45x

Equating:

180-25x-(57+x)=180-45x

Subtracting 180 and simplifying:

-25x-57-x=-45x

19x=57

Dividing by 19:

x=3

PLEASE HELP!
____ [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • A. x = -2
  • B. (-2, -3), (-3, -1)
  • C. x = 0
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Part A. The solution is represented by the point at which the graphs intersect: (-2, -3). The x-value that makes p(x) = f(x) is x = -2.

___

Part B. The point found in Part A is one solution to f(x). The graph shows the line has a slope of -2, so another point will be 1 to the left and 2 up: (-3, -1). So, two solutions are ...

... (-2, -3) and (-3, -1)

___

Part C. The graphs of p(x) and g(x) intersect at the point (0, 2). This means

... p(0) = g(0) = 2

So, x = 0 is the solution to the equation p(x) = g(x).
