Explain why sin^-1(sin(3pi/4))does not equal 3pi/4 when y=sin x and y=sin^-1 x are inverses.

Because they're not inverses, not exactly. \sin x is not invertible on its entire domain because it's not one-to-one. There are infinitely many values of x such that \sin x=0, for example.

The standard function \sin^{-1}x has a domain of -1\le x\le1 and outputs values between -\dfrac\pi2 and \dfrac\pi2. This means that its inverse, \sin x, is indeed its inverse as long as -\dfrac\pi2\le x\le\dfrac\pi2.

\dfrac{3\pi}4 is larger than \dfrac\pi2 and thus does not fall in the "invertible part" of the domain of \sin x. We have

\sin\dfrac{3\pi}4=\dfrac1{\sqrt2}

which is a value between -1 and 1, so that

\sin^{-1}\left(\sin\dfrac{3\pi}4\right)=\sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac1{\sqrt2}\right)=\dfrac\pi4

If we wanted to recover \dfrac{3\pi}4, we'd have to redefine \sin^{-1}x or define a new inverse function that works on a different branch of the domain of \sin x.

Easy, just do 45-25.50= 19.50 and then divide 19.50 by 6, and then you get 3.25. So, your answer would be $3.25.

Find the smallest multiple of 15 such that each digit of the multiple is either 0 or 4
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The answer is 4440.  You can determine this by using your rules of divisibility.  We know that is must end in a 0 or 5 to be divisible by 5 and that the sum of the digits must be divisible by 3 in order to divide by 3. One or two 4's together are not divisible by 3.  Three 4's are, but it must end in 0 to be divisible by 5 as well.

Rachel tutors English. for each hour that she tutors, she earns 50 dollars. Let E be her earnings (in dollars) after tutoring fo
n200080 [17]

Answer:

a. E = 50 H b. 950 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Since Rachel tutors English for 50 dollars for each hours, her rate is 50 dollar per hour. If she tutors for time, H hours, Her earning E = rate × time = 50 × H

E = 50H.

b. If Rachel's earnings after tutoring for 19 hours is gotten by substituting H = 19 into the equation for the earnings, E.

So, E = 50H

E = 50 × 19

E = 950 dollars.

So, Rachel's earnings after 19 hours is 950 dollars.
