Answer:
-7/10
Explanation:
Given the expression

We can rewrite the expression as:

The number line showing the location of the two numbers is attached below. Therefore:
Answer:
The solutions are 3 and -5
Step-by-step explanation:
x+3=x^2+3x-12
x^2+2x-15
=(x-3)(x+5)
Remark
The point value is (-2,5) So we know the two sides. We need the hypotenuse. We should notice that the x value is minus (-2) and value is y value is plus (5). That means we are in quad 2. Be careful how you read that. (-2,5) is a point. It is not a tangent.
Step One
Find the hypotenuse.
a = - 2
b = 5
c = ??
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = (-2)^2 + 5^2
c^2 = 4 + 25
c^2 = 29 Take the square root of both sides.
sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(29)
c = sqrt(29)
Step Two
Find the Cosine of the angle.
Cosine(theta) = adjacent / hypotenuse
Cosine(theta) = -2 / sqrt(29) <<<<<<< Answer
Again, watch out for what you are given.
The equation in exponentail form -->. 4^-3 = (1/4)^3
1/4^3 = 1/64
1/64 = 1/64
