cos(2 x) + 2 = sin(x)
Solve for x over the real numbers:
sin(x) - cos(2 x) = 2
Transform sin(x) - cos(2 x) into a polynomial with respect to sin(x) using cos(2 x) = 1 - 2 sin^2(x):
-1 + sin(x) + 2 sin^2(x) = 2
Divide both sides by 2:
-1/2 + sin(x)/2 + sin^2(x) = 1
Add 1/2 to both sides:
sin(x)/2 + sin^2(x) = 3/2
Add 1/16 to both sides:
1/16 + sin(x)/2 + sin^2(x) = 25/16
Write the left hand side as a square:
(sin(x) + 1/4)^2 = 25/16
Take the square root of both sides:
sin(x) + 1/4 = 5/4 or sin(x) + 1/4 = -5/4
Subtract 1/4 from both sides:
sin(x) = 1 or sin(x) + 1/4 = -5/4
Take the inverse sine of both sides:
x = 2 π n + π/2 for n element Z
or sin(x) + 1/4 = -5/4
Subtract 1/4 from both sides:
x = 2 π n + π/2 for n element Z
or sin(x) = -3/2
sin(x) = -3/2 has no solution since for all x element R, -1<=sin(x)<=1 and -3/2<-1:

Answer:
1,296
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the right side and you have
x² -10x -6 -2x -1 = 0
x² -12x -7 = 0
This corresponds to the selection ...
C. x² -12x - 7 = 0
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x - 4) = 2x - (6 + x) first get rid of parenthesis
3(x - 4) = 3x - 12 and
2x - (6 + x) = 2x - 6 - x
3x - 12 = 2x - 6 - x
3x - 12 = x - 6 export like terms to the same side
3x - x = 12 - 6
2x = 6 divide both sides by 2
x = 3
