Answer:

b = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

A heater repairman charges $40 to visit a home, plus $70 per hour for the time he spends on the repair.

This situation can be described by an equation of the form y=mx+b , where

x = the time in hours

y = the cost in dollars.

What is the value of b in this equation?

A heater repairman charges $40 to visit a home, plus $70 per hour for the time he spends on the repair

Writing the above in an equation =

y = $70 × x + $40

y = 70x + 40

Therefore, the value of b in the expression = 40

Find the exact value of the following expression (without using a calculator): tan(Sin^-1 x/2)
Sati [7]

Answer:

tan(Sin^-1 x/2)=  \frac{x/2}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}/4 } }

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sin^-1 x/2= θ

then sinθ= x/2

on the basis of unit circle, we have a triangle with hypotenuse of length 1,   one side of length x/2 and opposite angle of θ.

          tan(Sin^-1 x/2) = tanθ

           tanθ= sinθ/cosθ

as per trigonometric identities cosθ= √(1-sin^2θ)

           tanθ= sinθ/ √(1-sin^2θ)

substituting the value sinθ=x/2 in the above equation

             tanθ= \frac{x/2}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}/4 } }

now substituting the value sin^-1 x/2= θ in above equation

             tan(sin^-1 x/2) =  \frac{x/2}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}/4 } }

4 times the quantity of a number decreased by one is the same as two more than the same number. Find the number
Yanka [14]
The hard part is just making sense of what they are asking for.

4 times the quantity of a number decreased by one is just the expression:

4 * (x-1)

Where "x" is our mystery number.

Two more than the same number is just:

x + 2

Where "x" is our same mystery number.

They say that these two expressions are the same, so just set them equal to each other.

4*(x-1) = x+2

4x - 4 = x +2

3x -4 = 2

3x = 6

x = 2

The mystery number is 2.  Plug in 2  and you will see that it works!
