Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first expression

3 x (x - 2) + 2 = 3 x^2 - 6 x + 2

evaluated at x= 4 we get: 26

and for x = 5 we get 47.

For the second expression

2 x^2 + 3 x - 18

we get the exact same values when doing the evaluation at these two points.

Based on those results, one may think the expressions may be equivalent, but they are not equivalent. Because at any other x-value, their results are different. See for example that for x = 0 the first one gives "2" while the second one gives -18.

In the diagram below, assume that all points are given in rectangular coordinates. Determine the polar coordinates for each poin

Korolek [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have cartisean points. We are trying to find polar points.

We can find r by applying the pythagorean theorem to the x value and y values.

$r {}^{2} = {x}^{2} + {y}^{2}$

And to find theta, notice how a right triangle is created if we draw the base(the x value) and the height(y value). We also just found our r( hypotenuse) so ignore that. We know the opposite side and the adjacent side originally. so we can use the tangent function.

$\tan(x) = \frac{y}{x}$
