Eya is 5 years younger than 3 times Bills age. If Eya is 28 how old is Bill?

Bill's age = x

Eya's age = 3x - 5

Eya is 28

28 = 3x - 5

28 (+5) = 3x -5 (+5)

33 = 3x

33/3 = 3x/3

x = 11

Bill = x

x = 11

Bill is 11 years old

hope this helps

Multiply using FOIL or Table method (x + 4) (x + 5)

mylen [45]

Answer:

${x}^{2} + 9x + 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Use FOIL method: (a + b) (c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd.

${x}^{2} + 5x + 4x + 20$

2) Collect like terms.

${x}^{2} + (5x + 4x) + 20$

3) Simplify.

${x}^{2} + 9x + 20$

Please solve 5 f <br> (Trigonometric Equations)<br> #salute u if u solved it

Answer:

$\beta=45\degree\:\:or\:\:\beta=135\degree$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve $\tan \beta \sec \beta=\sqrt{2}$ , where $0\le \beta \le360\degree$ .

We rewrite in terms of sine and cosine.

$\frac{\sin \beta}{\cos \beta} \cdot \frac{1}{\cos \beta} =\sqrt{2}$

$\frac{\sin \beta}{\cos^2\beta}=\sqrt{2}$

Use the Pythagorean identity: $\cos^2\beta=1-\sin^2\beta$ .

$\frac{\sin \beta}{1-\sin^2\beta}=\sqrt{2}$

$\implies \sin \beta=\sqrt{2}(1-\sin^2\beta)$

$\implies \sin \beta=\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{2}\sin^2\beta$

$\implies \sqrt{2}\sin^2\beta+\sin \beta- \sqrt{2}=0$

This is a quadratic equation in $\sin \beta$ .

By the quadratic formula, we have:

$\sin \beta=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4(\sqrt{2})(-\sqrt{2} ) } }{2\cdot \sqrt{2} }$

$\sin \beta=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2+4(2) } }{2\cdot \sqrt{2} }$

$\sin \beta=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{9} }{2\cdot \sqrt{2} }$

$\sin \beta=\frac{-1\pm3}{2\cdot \sqrt{2} }$

$\sin \beta=\frac{2}{2\cdot \sqrt{2} }$ or $\sin \beta=\frac{-4}{2\cdot \sqrt{2} }$

$\sin \beta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ or $\sin \beta=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{2} }$

$\sin \beta=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ or $\sin \beta=-\sqrt{2}$

When $\sin \beta=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ , $\beta=\sin ^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} )$

$\implies \beta=45\degree\:\:or\:\:\beta=135\degree$ on the interval $0\le \beta \le360\degree$ .

When $\sin \beta=-\sqrt{2}$ , $\beta$ is not defined because $-1\le \sin \beta \le1$

Find the gradient of the curve y=-x^-3-5x^2+7x at x=2

Harman [31]

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient or slope of a curve y is simply the derivative of the curve at a point x. So we can proceed as follows

$\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{d}{dx}(x^3 -5x^2 +7) = 3x^2 -10x$

Evaluated at x = 2, the gradient of the slope is

$\left.\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right|_{x=2} = 3(2)^2 - 10(2) = -8$
