Solve 2sin2(x) – 5sin(x) – 3 = 0. Let u = sin(x). Which of the following is equivalent to the given equation?

Orlov [11]

Answer:

$x=(-1)^{k+1}\cdot \dfrac{\pi}{6}+\pi k,\ k\in Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equation

$2\sin^2x-5\sin x-3=0$

Substitute

$u=\sin x$

into the equation:

$2u^2-5u-3=0$

This is quadratic equation, where

$D=(-5)^2-4\cdot 2\cdot (-3)=25+24=49\\ \\\sqrt{D}=7$

Hence,

$u_1=\dfrac{-(-5)-\sqrt{D}}{2\cdot 2}=\dfrac{5-7}{4}=-\dfrac{1}{2}\\ \\u_2=\dfrac{-(-5)+\sqrt{D}}{2\cdot 2}=\dfrac{5+7}{4}=3$

Now, use the substitution again:

1. When $u_1=-\dfrac{1}{2},$ then

$\sin x=-\dfrac{1}{2}\\ \\x=(-1)^k\sin^{-1}\left(-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)+\pi k,\ k\in Z\\ \\x=(-1)^k\cdot \left(-\dfrac{\pi}{6}\right)+\pi k,\ k\in Z\\ \\x=(-1)^{k+1}\cdot \dfrac{\pi}{6}+\pi k,\ k\in Z$

2. When $u_2=3,$ then

$\sin x=3$

This equation has no solutions, because the range of $\sin x$ is $[-1,1]$ and 3>1.

Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 18

Sergio039 [100]

$( \frac{c}{2} + 6) * 10 = 18$

$( \frac{c}{2} + 6) = \frac{18}{10}$

$\frac{c}{2} = \frac{18}{10} - \frac{6}{1}$

$\frac{c}{2} = - \frac{21}{5}$

$C = - \frac{21}{5} * 2$

$C = - \frac{42}{5}$

6. A sector of a circle is a region bound by an arc and the two radii that share the arc's endpoints. Suppose you have a dartboa

Aliun [14]

Given the dartboard of diameter $20in$ , divided into 20 congruent sectors,

The central angle is $18^\circ$

The fraction of a circle taken up by one sector is $\frac{1}{20}$

The area of one sector is $15.7in^2$ to the nearest tenth

The area of a circle is given by the formula

$A=\pi r^2$

A sector of a circle is a fraction of a circle. The fraction is given by $\frac{\theta}{360^\circ}$ . Where $\theta$ is the angle subtended by the sector at the center of the circle.

The formula for computing the area of a sector, given the angle at the center is

$A_s=\dfrac{\theta}{360^\circ}\times \pi r^2$

<h3>Given information</h3>

We given a circle (the dartboard) with diameter of $20in$ , divided into 20 equal(or, congruent) sectors

<h3>Part I: Finding the central angle</h3>

To find the central angle, divide $360^\circ$ by the number of sectors. Let $\alpha$ denote the central angle, then

$\alpha=\dfrac{360^\circ}{20}\\\\\alpha=18^\circ$

<h3>Part II: Find the fraction of the circle that one sector takes</h3>

The fraction of the circle that one sector takes up is found by dividing the angle a sector takes up by $360^\circ$ . The angle has already been computed in Part I (the central angle, $\alpha$ ). The fraction is

$f=\dfrac{\alpha}{360^\circ}\\\\f=\dfrac{18^\circ}{360^\circ}=\dfrac{1}{20}$

<h3>Part III: Find the area of one sector to the nearest tenth</h3>

The area of one sector can be gotten by multiplying the fraction gotten from Part II, with the area formula. That is

$A_s=f\times \pi r^2\\=\dfrac{1}{20}\times3.14\times\left(\dfrac{20}{2}\right)^2\\\\=\dfrac{1}{20}\times3.14\times10^2=15.7in^2$
