Using the slope formula, find the slope of the line through the points (0,0) and (4,8).
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Using mental math to find the slope of the line:</u>
If you think about the formula, then you set up the points in your head, you will notice that the first point is on top of the second point. And that way makes it easy to simplify. All you would need to do is subtract down in your head: For example:
(0, 0)
(4, 8)
As you can see, the first point is on top of the other, and that way you can just subtract from bottom to top. If you do it that way, it is set up (Remember, you would do this all in your head)

Answer:
is an even function.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall when it means when a function is even or odd. An even function has the following property:
And an odd function has the following property:
So, let's test some values for cos(x).
Let's use π/3:
From the unit circle, was can see that this is 1/2 (refer to the x-coordinate).
Now, let's find -π/3. This is the same as 5π/3. Thus:
And again from the unit circle, we can see that this is 1/2.
Therefore, despite the negative, the function outputs the same value.
Cosine is an even function.
Notes:
Cosine is an even function and sine is an odd function. It's helpful to remember these as they can help you solve some trig problems!
