Answer:

2y + 1/3 = 5

2y = -5 -1/3

2y = -16/3

Y = -8/3

Answer:

$x+(3x+2)=30$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of Zach's car

y ----> the length of Ginny's car

we know that

The sum of the lengths of both cars is 30 inches

$x+y=30$ ----> equation A

Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car

$y=3x+2$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$x+(3x+2)=30$

Given: cosθ= -4/5 , sin x = -12/13 , θ is in the third quadrant, and x is in the fourth quadrant; evaluate tan 1/2 θ

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're looking for what the half angle of the tangent of theta is, I'm a bit confused as to why you think the angle in the 4th quadrant, x, is relevant. But maybe you don't know it isn't and it's a "trick" to throw you off. Hmm...

Anyways, the half angle identity for tangent is

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{sin\theta}{1+cos\theta}$

There are actually 3 identities for the tangent of a half angle, but this one works just as well as either of the others do, so I'm going with this one.

If theta is in QIII, the value of -4 goes along the x axis and the hypotenuse is 5. That makes the missing side, by Pythagorean's Theorem, -3. Filling in our formula:

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{1+(-\frac{4}{5}) }$ which simplifies a bit to

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{\frac{5}{5} -\frac{4}{5} }$ and a bit more to

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{\frac{1}{5} }$

Bring up the lower fraction and flip it to divide to get

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=-\frac{3}{5}*\frac{5}{1}$ which of course simplifies to

-3. Choice A.
