Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are better known as corresponding angles, and since the two lines are parallel, then the angles must be congruent. This means x = 115 degrees.

C. The values of x is 115 because the two angles shown are congruent.

Why the other answers are wrong:

A & B are wrong because it states the two angles are supplementary, but supplementary angles have to add up to 180 degrees and 115+115 is 230 not 180.

D is wrong because there's no logical explanation to why you would subtract 90 degrees from 115 to solve for x.

Verify the identity: (1-sinx)/cosx = cosx/(1+sinx)

Lisa [10]

For the answer to the question above,
Let's work with the left-hand side
We're going to times cosx/1-sinx by 1+sinx/1+sinx, you can do this because 1+sinx/1+sinx is equal to 1, so you aren't really changing anything.

After you've times the top and bottom by 1+sinx, you get:

cosx(1+sinx) / (1-sinx)(1+sinx)

The denominator is a difference of squares, so you get 1-sin^2 x

what you have now is

cosx(1+sinx) / 1-sin^2x

You know that 1-sin^2x is equal to cos^2x

so know you have

cosx(1+sinx) / cos^2x

get rid of the cosx on top by simplifying and the cos^2x so that you're left with

(1+sinx) / cos x

Therefore cosx / 1- sinx = 1 + sinx / cos x

a boat takes 8 hours to go 6 miles upstream and come back to the starting point. if the speed of the boat is 4 miles per hour in

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Consider this option:
1. if to re-write the condition, it is given: total time t=8 hours; upstream=downstream=6 miles; V_boat=4 m/h., V_current=V=?
2. note, that total time=time_upstream+time_downstream, where time_upstream=6miles/(V_boat-V) and time_downstream=6miles/(V_boat+V). Using this it is possible to make up and solve the following equation:
$\frac{6}{4+V} + \frac{6}{4-V} =8; \ =\ \textgreater \ \ \frac{V^2-10}{16-V^2}=0; \ =\ \textgreater \ \ V=\sqrt{10} \ \frac{miles}{hour}$

answer: √10

P.S. the roots of the equation are √10 and (-√10), only positive values is needed for V.

Compare the properties of each function. Please help I will give brainliest.

Answer:

both are linear functions with a y-intercept of 3 and domain of all real numbers
f(x) has positive slope, so a range of all real numbers
g(x) has zero slope, so a range of only the value 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Both functions are shown in the attached graph. Both are linear functions with a y-intercept of 3. Both have a domain of all real numbers.

Function A has a positive slope, so has a range of all real numbers.

Function B has a zero slope, so its range is the single number y = 3.
