Answer:

  x ∈ {π/6, π/2, 5π/6, 7π/6, 3π/2, 11π/6}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can divide by 6 and use some identities to rewrite this as ...

  2tan(x)/(1-tan(x)²) -1/tan(x) = 0

  2tan(x)² -(1 -tan(x)²) = 0 . . . . . . . . . multiply* by tan(x)(1 -tan(x)²)

  3tan(x)² = 1

  tan(x) = ±1/√3   ⇒   x = {π/6, 5π/6, 7π/6, 11π/6}

__

Interestingly, if we use different identities, we can rewrite it as ...

  2cot(x)/(cot(x)² -1) -cot(x) = 0

  cot(x)(3 -cot(x)²) = 0 . . . . . . . multiply by (cot(x)² -1)

In addition to the zeros found above, this equation also has solutions where cot(x) = 0. That is ...

  x = {π/2, 3π/2}

_____

Usually, the first method shown would give all the solutions. Fortunately, we had a graph of the function, so we could see that the first set of solutions found was not complete. (This is one reason I like to use a graphing calculator for guidance on problems like this.)

_____

* In the first solution, we multiplied by the denominator tan(x)(1 -tan(x)²). It was multiplying by tan(x) that made the π/2, 3π/2 solutions disappear. Had we kept 1/tan(x) as a numerator factor of cot(x), we would have had the same result as seen in the second approach.

2x - 3 < 11 or 8x -10 < 82:  <span>X < 23/2
<span>
Part 1</span>
</span>2x-3<11
Add 3 both sides
2x-3+3<11+3
Refine
2x<14
Divide by 2 on both sides
2x / 2    /   14 / 2
Refine
x < 7
<span>
Part 2</span>
8x-10<82
Add 10 to both sides
8x-10+10<82+10
Refine
8x<92
Divide by 8
8x / 8   /   92 / 8
Refine
x < 23 / 2

jenny borrowed $500 for 5 years at 4% interest compounded annually. what is the total amount she will have paid when she pays of
alexdok [17]
Use the formula for compound interest,  
  
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{nt}  
  
Where P is the starting amount (500$), r is the rate of interest (0.04), n is the number of times the interest is compounded per unit (1 per year), and t is the amount of time it is compounded (5 years).  
  
Now, plug it into the formula:  
  
A=500(1+ \frac{0.04}{1})^{5}  
  
Do the math, and your answer is she must pay <span>608.32$ when she pays her debts.</span>
