Find the angles between -pi and pi that satisfy:<br><br> (−√3) sin(v)+cos(v)=√3

MAXImum [283]

Observe that

$\sin\left(\dfrac\pi6-v\right)=\sin\dfrac\pi6\cos v-\cos\dfrac\pi6\sin v=\dfrac12\cos v-\dfrac{\sqrt3}2\sin v$

In the original equation, divide both sides by $\dfrac12$ :

$-\sqrt3\sin v+\cos v=\sqrt3\implies\dfrac12\cos v-\dfrac{\sqrt3}2\sin v=\dfrac{\sqrt3}2$

$\implies\sin\left(\dfrac\pi6-v\right)=\dfrac{\sqrt3}2$

Next,

$\sin x=\dfrac{\sqrt3}2\implies x=\dfrac\pi3+2n\pi,x=\dfrac{2\pi}3+2n\pi$

where $n$ is any integer. Then

$\sin\left(\dfrac\pi6-v\right)\implies v=-\dfrac\pi6-2n\pi,v=-\dfrac\pi2-2n\pi$

Fix $n=0$ to ensure $-\pi$ , so that

$v=-\dfrac\pi6,v=-\dfrac\pi2$

3(x+9)-4x=11x-13x+23

adoni [48]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x=-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(x+9)-4x=11x-13x+23\\\\(3)(x)+(3)(9)-4x=(11x-13x)+23\\\\3x+27-4x=-2x+23\\\\(3x-4x)+27=-2x+23\\\\-x+27=-2x+23\qquad|\text{subtrsact 27 from both sides}\\\\-x=-2x-4\qquad|\text{add}\ 2x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x=-4$

The graph is the horizontal line:

y=3 it has a slope of zero.

Function 2 is

y=3x+1, it is in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y=intercept so in this case it has a slope of 3.

So the difference in slopes is 3-0=3
