Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you divide the two to the y, which is x=3/2y

then, you simplify the second equation to y, which is -3y= -4x+12

then, you substitute the x=3/2y into the second equation,

-3y = -6+12

-3y = 6

y = -2

Substitute the y into the first equation, x= 3/2y,

x = -3

What are all the exact solutions of 2 sin^2 x- sin x = 0

alexandr1967 [171]

Factor:

2sin^2x-sinx = 0

sinx(2sinx - 1) = 0

Therefore the solutions are when:

sin x = 0
And
sinx = 1/2

So sinx = 0
is true when x = 0 and pi and all the angles coterminal with these points. Thus, the answer is x = pi*n, (where n is some integer)

sinx = 1/2
is true when x = pi/6 and 5pi/6 and the angles coterminal with these points.
Thus, the answer is x = pi/6 + 2pi*n (where n is some integer)
and x = 5pi/6 + 2pi*n (where n is some integer)

What is the value of b?

labwork [276]

The value of b is 61°.

you solve by doing this:
add up the two given angles, 58° and 61° to get 119°. then you subtract from 180° to get 61.
