Answer:

a + 2b

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equivalent of the given expression, we must open up the parenthesis by multiplying each element in the parenthesis by 2, we would then collect like terms and simplify the algebraic expression.

2(a + 2b) - a - 2b

= 2a + 4b - a - 2b

= 2a - a + 4b - 2b

= a + 2b

Simplify 4/7 + 5/6 whoever possible

Pani-rosa [81]

Hey there!

4/7 + 5/6

≈ 24/42 + 35/42

≈ 24 + 36/ 42 - 0

≈ 59/42

≈ 1 17/42

Therefore, your answer is:

59/42 or 1 17/42

EITHER OF THOSE SHOULD WORK BECAUSE THEY ARE EQUIVALENT.

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Let O be an angle in quadrant III such that cos 0 = -2/5 Find the exact values of csco and tan 0.

vivado [14]

well, we know that θ is in the III Quadrant, where the sine is negative and the cosine is negative as well, or if you wish, where "x" as well as "y" are both negative, now, the hypotenuse or radius of the circle is just a distance amount, so is never negative, so in the equation of cos(θ) = - (2/5), the negative must be the adjacent side, thus

$cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-2}}{\underset{hypotenuse}{5}}\qquad \textit{let's find the \underline{opposite side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{5^2 - (-2)^2}=b\implies \pm\sqrt{25-4}\implies \pm\sqrt{21}=b\implies \stackrel{III~Quadrant}{-\sqrt{21}=b}$

$\dotfill\\\\ csc(\theta)\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5}}{\underset{opposite}{-\sqrt{21}}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{rationalizing the denominator}}{-\cfrac{5}{\sqrt{21}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{21}}\implies -\cfrac{5\sqrt{21}}{21}} \\\\\\ tan(\theta)=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-\sqrt{21}}}{\underset{adjacent}{-2}}\implies tan(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{21}}{2}$
