<span>A)x-y+3 is your answer

Proof:

(5 x)/4 - 8 y - x/4 + 7 y + 3
Put each term in (5 x)/4 - 8 y - x/4 + 7 y + 3 over the common denominator 4: (5 x)/4 - 8 y - x/4 + 7 y + 3 = (5 x)/4 - (32 y)/4 - (x)/4 + (28 y)/4 + 12/4:
(5 x)/4 - (32 y)/4 - x/4 + (28 y)/4 + 12/4
(5 x)/4 - (32 y)/4 - x/4 + (28 y)/4 + 12/4 = (5 x - 32 y - x + 28 y + 12)/4:
(5 x - 32 y - x + 28 y + 12)/4
Grouping like terms, 5 x - 32 y - x + 28 y + 12 = (28 y - 32 y) + (5 x - x) + 12:
((28 y - 32 y) + (5 x - x) + 12)/4
28 y - 32 y = -4 y:
(-4 y + (5 x - x) + 12)/4
5 x - x = 4 x:
(-4 y + 4 x + 12)/4
Factor 4 out of -4 y + 4 x + 12:
(4 (-y + x + 3))/4
(4 (-y + x + 3))/4 = 4/4×(3 + x - y) = 3 + x - y:
Answer: 3 + x - y

Given sin(−θ)=−1/6 and tanθ=−√35/35 What is the value of cosθ?

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{35} }{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the negative angle identity for the sine function:

$sin(- \theta)=-sin(\theta)$

Then, we can find the value of $sin(\theta)$ :

$sin(\theta)=-sin(-\theta)\\sin(\theta) =-(-\frac{1}{6} )\\sin(\theta)= \frac{1}{6}$

Now recall the definition of the tangent function:

$tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

Therefore, now that we know the value of $sin(\theta)$ , we can solve in this equation for $cos(\theta)$

$tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}\\-\frac{\sqrt{35} }{35} =\frac{1/6}{cos(\theta)} \\cos(\theta)=-\frac{\frac{1}{6} }{\frac{\sqrt{35} }{35} } \\cos(\theta)=-\frac{35}{6\,\sqrt{35} } \\cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{35} }{6}$
