<h3>Answer: A. 5/12, 25/12</h3>
============================
Work Shown:
12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 = 16
12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 16-10
12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 6
sin(2pi/5*x) = 6/12
sin(2pi/5*x) = 0.5
2pi/5*x = arcsin(0.5)
2pi/5*x = pi/6+2pi*n or 2pi/5*x = 5pi/6+2pi*n
2/5*x = 1/6+2*n or 2/5*x = 5/6+2*n
x = (5/2)*(1/6+2*n) or x = (5/2)*(5/6+2*n)
x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n
these equations form the set of all solutions. The n is any integer.
--------
The two smallest positive solutions occur when n = 0, so,
x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n
x = 5/12+5*0 or x = 25/12+5*0
x = 5/12 or x = 25/12
--------
Plugging either x value into the expression 12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 should yield 16, which would confirm the two answers.
Only two of them are the correct answers to this question.
First you do what is inside the parentheses. 10 x 5 - 3. 50 - 3 =47. Then you multiply 47 x 5 = 235.
