Answer:

6 * 10^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify : (4.2×10^7)÷(7×10^4)

(4.2 × 10^7) / (7 × 10^4)

From indices : 10^a ÷ 10^b = 10^(a - b)

(4.2 / 7) * 10^(7-4)

0.6 * 10^3

= 6 * 10^2

Hence, (4.2×10^7)÷(7×10^4) = 6 * 10^2

Which sum or difference identity would you use to verify that cos (180° - q) = -cos q?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

$\cos (a-b)=\cos a \cos b+\sin a \sin b$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q$

We have to write which identity we will use to prove the given statement.

Consider $\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos q$

Take left hand side of given expression $\cos (180^{\circ}-q)$

We know

$\cos (a-b)=\cos a \cos b+\sin a \sin b$

Comparing , we get, a= 180° and b = q

Substitute , we get,

$\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=\cos 180^{\circ} \cos (q)+\sin q \sin 180^{\circ}$

Also, we know $\sin 180^{\circ}=0$ and $\cos 180^{\circ}=-1$

Substitute, we get,

$\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-1\cdot \cos (q)+\sin q \cdot 0$

Simplify , we get,

$\cos (180^{\circ}-q)=-\cos (q)$

Hence, use difference identity to prove the given result.

Which are correct representations of the inequality –3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x)? Select two options.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

The correct representations of the given inequality are

–6x + 15 < 10 – 5x

and

A number line with an open circle at 5 and a bold line that starts at 5 and is pointing to the right. The correct options are the third and fourth options

<h3>Solving inequality</h3>

From the question, we are to solve the inequality

The given inequality is

–3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x)

First, clear the brackets

–6x + 15 < 10 – 5x

NOTE: This is one of the correct representations of the inequality

Collect like terms

-6x + 5x < 10 - 15

-x < -5

Divide both sides by -1 and flip the sign

x > 5

Representing this on a number line, we get a number line with an open circle at 5 and a bold line that starts at 5 and is pointing to the right.

Hence, the correct representations of the given inequality are

–6x + 15 < 10 – 5x

and

A number line with an open circle at 5 and a bold line that starts at 5 and is pointing to the right. The correct options are the third and fourth options
