the question does not present the options, but this does not interfere with the resolution


we have

sin x/ (1-cos x)


we know that

sin²x+cos²x=1-----------> sin²x=1-cos²x

and

difference of squares

(a+b)*(a-b)=a²-b²

so

The idea is to make the difference of squares (1-cos²x)in denominator.so

multiply the expression by (1+cos x)/(1+cos x)

[sin x/ (1-cos x)]*[(1+cos x)/(1+cos x)]=[sin x*(1+cos x)]/[ (1-cos x)/(1+cos x)]

=[sin x*(1+cos x)]/[ (1-cos²x)]

=[sin x*(1+cos x)]/[ sin²x]

=(1+cos x)/sin x

=(1/sin x)+(cos x/sin x)

=csc x+cot x


therefore


the answer is

the first step is multiply the expression by (1+cos x)/(1+cos x)

A civil engineer is designing a public parking lot for the new town hall. The number of cars in each row should be six less than
Alexandra [31]
The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars

Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:

y = x - 6             (1)

The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:

xy = 112           (2)

Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.

Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:

x(x - 6) = 112       (3)

This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.

1. Consider the equation 2 x e x + = . This equation has a solution close to x = 0 .
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

the linear approximation formula is based on the equation of the tangent line of a function at a fixed point. The linear approximation of a function f(x) at a fixed value x = a is given by L(x) = f(a) + f '(a) (x - a).
