Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 cos x + √ 2 = 0

2 cos x = -√ 2

cos x = -√ 2  / 2

x = arcCos(  -√ 2  / 2 )

so to solve we have to use  "co-terminal " angles .. do you know what I'm saying?  do you understand the words coming out of my mouth :DDDDD OKay back to math and not movie lines .. :P

x = arcCos(  √ 2  / 2 )

x = 45 °

now find the "co terminal" angle that is on 45 ° but in the correct quadrant... since the  -√ 2   is negative.. we now that we go down the y axis.. but also positive on the x axis.. soooo.. that put the angle in the 4th quadrant... so this is an angle of 315° if we go in the CCW  ( counter clock wise )  direction but it's also -45°  in the CW  (clock wise )  direction

below is the table to remember the trig special angles

notice how it's  1,2,3,4    .. so it's super easy to remember.. the trig books don't show you this "trick"   :P

copy and paste this to your computer some where handy

Sin(0) = 0/2      =0  

Sin(30)= \sqrt{1}/2   = 1/2  

Sing(45) =\sqrt{2}/2 =\sqrt{2}/2  

Sin(60)=\sqrt{3}/2   = \sqrt{3}/2  

Sin(90)=\sqrt{4}/2   = 1  

Cos is exactly the same but counts backwards from 90°

Cos(90) = 0/2       = 0

Cos(60) = \sqrt{1} /2   = 1/2

Cos(45) = \sqrt{2}/2    =\sqrt{2}/2

Cos(30) = \sqrt{3}/2   =\sqrt{3}/2

Cos(0) = \sqrt{4}/2    = 1

Maurinko [17]
-2 * 3 = -6.
-6/2 = -3.
-3 * 2 = -6
-6 + 2 = -4
-4 - 2= -6
-6 * 2 = -12.

I think I did that right lol

I think you have to divide 275/5 and that will give you his speed for one hour.

What is the value of 6x-3x +7 if x=9?
Lynna [10]

6x - 3x + 7 \\ 3x + 7 \\ 3(9) + 7 \\ 27 + 7 \\  = 34
Combine like terms and "plug in" x into the equation to eventually get 34 after some addition
