Answer:

distribute parenthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2x + 1) = 4x - 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

12x + 6 = 4x - 5 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

8x + 6 = - 5 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

8x = - 11 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = - \frac{11}{8}

4 Tan A/1-Tan^4=Tan2A + Sin2A​
Eva8 [605]

tan(2<em>A</em>) + sin(2<em>A</em>) = sin(2<em>A</em>)/cos(2<em>A</em>) + sin(2<em>A</em>)

• rewrite tan = sin/cos

… = 1/cos(2<em>A</em>) (sin(2<em>A</em>) + sin(2<em>A</em>) cos(2<em>A</em>))

• expand the functions of 2<em>A</em> using the double angle identities

… = 2/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1) (sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) + sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) (cos²(<em>A</em>) - sin²(<em>A</em>)))

• factor out sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>)

… = 2 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>)/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1) (1 + cos²(<em>A</em>) - sin²(<em>A</em>))

• simplify the last factor using the Pythagorean identity, 1 - sin²(<em>A</em>) = cos²(<em>A</em>)

… = 2 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>)/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1) (2 cos²(<em>A</em>))

• rearrange terms in the product

… = 2 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) (2 cos²(<em>A</em>))/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1)

• combine the factors of 2 in the numerator to get 4, and divide through the rightmost product by cos²(<em>A</em>)

… = 4 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) / (2 - 1/cos²(<em>A</em>))

• rewrite cos = 1/sec, i.e. sec = 1/cos

… = 4 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) / (2 - sec²(<em>A</em>))

• divide through again by cos²(<em>A</em>)

… = (4 sin(<em>A</em>)/cos(<em>A</em>)) / (2/cos²(<em>A</em>) - sec²(<em>A</em>)/cos²(<em>A</em>))

• rewrite sin/cos = tan and 1/cos = sec

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / (2 sec²(<em>A</em>) - sec⁴(<em>A</em>))

• factor out sec²(<em>A</em>) in the denominator

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / (sec²(<em>A</em>) (2 - sec²(<em>A</em>)))

• rewrite using the Pythagorean identity, sec²(<em>A</em>) = 1 + tan²(<em>A</em>)

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / ((1 + tan²(<em>A</em>)) (2 - (1 + tan²(<em>A</em>))))

• simplify

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / ((1 + tan²(<em>A</em>)) (1 - tan²(<em>A</em>)))

• condense the denominator as the difference of squares

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / (1 - tan⁴(<em>A</em>))

(Note that some of these steps are optional or can be done simultaneously)

Question 1.1. Suppose a normal distribution has a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 4.
Nookie1986 [14]
Answer: Question 1.1: It is 1.5 standard deviations away from the mean.

Our value of 26 is 6 units about the mean of 20. If each standard deviation is 4, we just divide 6 by 4. This gives us the number of standard deviations.

Question 2.2 The correct answer is -0.52

If we are 0.52 standard deviations below the mean, then our z-score is simply -0.52. The definition of a z-score is the number of standard deviations from the mean.
