Its simple (n-12) because n is the variable and since it says fewer, then that means less than, which is subtracted by the number given which would be 12. Hope this helps! XD
A parallel equation (when graphed) will have the same slope, but a different y-intercept.
As long as you keep y = -
x + b, you can input anything for b to solve this question.
Given:
y = -x - 5
Equation of a parallel line:
y = -x + 6, y = -x + 1,356, y = -x - 8, etc
Example answer you can use:
y = -x - 8
Answer:
Slope <em>m</em> (Gradient) = 3
y-intercept: (0, -5)
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
y = 3x - 5
<u>Step 2: Break function</u>
Slope <em>m</em> = 3
y-intercept <em>b</em> = -5

This problem deals with the various trig functions and is looking for those points where they are undefined. Since the only math operations involved is division, that will happen with the associated trig function attempts to divide by zero. So let's look at the functions that are a composite of sin and cos.
sin and cos are defined for all real numbers and range in value from -1 to 1.
sin is zero for all integral multiples of pi, and cos is zero for all integral multiples of pi plus pi over 2. So the functions that are undefined will be those that divide by cos.
tan = sin/cos, which will be undefined for x = π/2 ±nπ
cot = cos/sin, which will be undefined for x = ±nπ
sec = 1/cos, which will be undefined for x = π/2 ±nπ
csc = 1/sin, which will be undefined for x = ±nπ
Now let's look at the options and pick the correct one.
A. y=secx
* There's a division by cos, so this is the correct choice.
B. y=cosx
* cos is defined over the entire domain, so this is a bad choice.
C. y=1/sinx
* The division is by sin, not cos. So this is a bad choice.
D. y=cotx,
* The division is by sin, not cos. So this is a bad choice.</span>
