Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well you have to solve for X to find Y simplified.

Since both equations equal Y you can plug them together

3x+3=x-1

-x -x

2x+3=-1

-3 -3

2x=-4

Divide -4 by 2 and you get X = -2 then plug X into both equations and boom

y= -3

Use substitution
Given both y values, you know that they have to be equal

3x + 3 = x - 1
2x + 3 = -1
2x = -4, divide by 2
x = -2
Now plug x value into any of the equation to find y value
y = 3(-2) + 3
y = -6 + 3, y = -3

Solution: x = -2, y = -3

Vika [28.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the readable scores are:

100, 82, 95, __ , 90, 81, 75, 83, __

We know the mean (or average) is 85, so:

85 = (100 + 82 + 95 + x + 90 + 81 + 75 + 83 + y) / 9

765 = 606 + x + y

159 = x + y

We know the lowest score is 75, so x and y must be at least 76. Possible answers are:

76 and 83

77 and 82

78 and 81

79 and 80

80 and 79

81 and 78

82 and 77

83 and 76

Prove the trigonometric identity! Please help!! 50 Points!

Rudiy27

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity I will substitue $x$ for β.

$1-sin(2x)=(cosx-sinx)^2\\1-2sin(x)cos(x)=cos^2x-2sin(x)cos(x)+sin^2x\\1=cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)\\1=1$

In the first step I used the identity

$sin(2x)=2sin(x)cos(x)$

And I factored out $(cosx-sinx)^2$

Then it's just simple algebra to cancel till the 3rd step where we used another identity derived from the Pythagorean Theorem.

$cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)=1$

That's it!
