Answer:

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (2x+1) = 26

we apply distributive property

-2 (2x+1) = 26

-2*2x -2*1 =26

-4x -2=26

-4x= 26+2

-4x= 28

x= -28/4

x= -7

Csc x= -√2 for π≤x≤3π/2

love history [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write this as Sinx by "flipping" the $-\sqrt{2}$ .

So we will have: $Sin(x)=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$

From basic trigonometry, we know the value of $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ of sine is of the angle $\frac{\pi}{4}$

But when is sine negative? Either in 3rd or 4th quadrant. But the answer has to be between 0 and $\frac{3\pi}{2}$ , so we disregard 4th quadrant.

To get the angle in 3rd quadrant, we add π to the acute angle of the first quadrant (which is π/4 in our case). Thus we have:

$\frac{\pi}{4}+\pi\\=\frac{\pi +4\pi}{4}\\=\frac{5\pi}{4}$

A is the right answer.

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

x = 2, -3

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2 + 2x- 6 = 0\\=>x^2 +3x - 2x- 6 = 0\\=>x(x+3) - 2(x +3) = 0\\=> (x-2)(x+3) = 0\\\\$

(x-2) = 0 or (x+3) = 0

x = 2 or x = -3

Thus, two values of x are x = 2, -3

Note: The options given are incorrect.

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (-4,1) and (2,4). Give your answer in its simplest form.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Solution,

Let the points be A and B

A(-4 , 1)------>( X1, y1)

B(2,4)---------->( x2, y2)

Now,

Gradient:

$\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

$\frac{4 - 1}{2 - ( - 4)}$

$\frac{3}{2 + 4}$

$\frac{3}{6}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

The cities Cleveland, Ohio; Erie, Pennsylvania; and Rochester, New York, in respective order, lie approximately in a straight li

Ann [662]

Answer:

Erie to Rochester is 145 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If we designate the points of interest as C, E, and R, we are told that ...

CE + ER = CR . . . . . the various distances are segments of a straight line

For CE = 94 and CR = 239, we can fill in the given information and solve for ER.

94 + ER = 239

ER = 239 -94 . . . . . . subtract 94 from both sides of the equation

ER = 145

The distance from Erie to Rochester is 145 miles.
