Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are consecutive terms in an AP,

(1 - x) + (2x + 1) = 2(x + 3).

=> x + 2 = 2x + 6

=> x = -4.

Therefore the terms are 5, -1 and -7.

=> Common difference = -6.

Prove that cos^3x+3cos2x= 4 (cos^6 x-sin^6x)

gavmur [86]

But this isn't true... If $x=\dfrac\pi2$ , you have

$\cos^3\dfrac\pi2+3\cos\pi=0-3=-3$
$4\left(\cos^6\dfrac\pi2-\sin^6\dfrac\pi2\right)=4(0-1)=-4$

but of course $-3\neq-4$ .

How do you solve -3x+28=10

Anna [14]

Answer: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for x, we must first isolate the term containing x which in this problem is -3x.

Since 28 is being added to -3x, we subtract 28 from both sides of the equation to isolate the -3x. On the left, the +28 and -28 cancel out and on the right 10 - 28 is -18 so we have -3x = -18.

Now we can finish things off by just dividing both sides of the equation by -3. On the left the -3's cancel and we have x. On the right, -18 divided by -3 is 6 so we have x = 6 which is the solution to our equation.
