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

You purchase a $100,000 life insurance policy for a $300 premium each year. If the probability of living is 0.999, find the expe
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The expected value for the insurance company is $200

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the expected value for the insurance company we would have to make the following calculation:

expected value for the insurance company=expected value live+expected value die

expected value live=Net gain*probability of living

expected value live=$300*0.999=$299.70

expected value die=Net gain*probability of die

expected value die=(-$100,000 + $300)*0.001

expected value die=$-99.70

Therefore, expected value for the insurance company=$299.70-$99.70

expected value for the insurance company=$200

The expected value for the insurance company is $200

Which point on the graph shows the price of 6 cups of hot chocolate? Use the formula y=x÷4 to find y when x equals 6.
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The correct point would be D) (6, 1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y value, put in 6 for x in the equation and simplify.

y = x÷4

y = 6÷4

y = 1.5

Plzz helppp it's due today​
juin [17]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

use trig functions

2 sides and 1 angle given

Sides given

  • hypotenuse -> x
  • opposite side to 30˚ -> 4

Angle

  • 30˚

trig function associated with hyp and opp is sin

sin(x) = opp/hyp

substitute

sin 30˚ = 4/x

solve for x

0.5 = 4/x

0.5x = 4

x = 8
