Hi, I have just learned to solve trigonometric problems for theta and have one specific question in order to find the solutions to my homework. I will use one example for this question. If I have 8cos^2 theta-3=1 I first divide by 8 and get cos^2theta=3/8 then I have cos theta= plus or minus the square root of 3/8 Then I assume that I plug in inverse cos (the square root of 3/8) to my calculator. How do I find the four solutions (we are typically supposed to find four, I believe?) Can you help me with finding the solution to this problem? Thank you!

More on a percentage question 2007-08-23
Dee pose la question :
In a previous question, you answered:

"What percentage of $34.51 is $10.71?

I translate this English statement into a mathematical statement (equation) using the following

"what" is the unknown, call it x
"percent" is per-one-hundred, that is over 100
"of" is multiplication
"is" is the verb, which in an equation is the equal sign
Thus the English statement above becomes


x/100 $34.51 = $10.71

Solving for x yields

x = 31.03

Hence the gross profit is 31% of your selling price."

How did you solve for 'x'

A Linear System 1998-10-08
Jason Bussey pose la question :
The linear systems with the following pattern all have the same solution. Is their some kind of reasoning as to why this is so?

2x+3y=4
3x+4y=5

4x+5y=6
5x+6y=7

The solution is always x=-1, y=2

Thank you
Jason

Grade 9 Algebra 1998-06-07
Tarah Kostenko pose la question :
I am a grade 9 student and I cannot figure out how to solve these two similar problems. can you please help?
-3(y-1/2)=1/2 also -2/3(x + 1)=6
I don't come up with the same answers as the book and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Thank you,

Intersecting Lines. 1998-02-10
Erik Heppler pose la question :
My typewriter frequently makes mistakes. Suppose I gave you the following system of equations to solve:

35.26X + 14.95Y = 28.35
187.3X + 79.43Y = 83.29

When I looked back, I realized that I meant to use 14.96 as the "Y" coefficient in the first equation instead of 14.95. Solving the system using 14.95 and then solving another system using 14.96 with all other values the same both times results in the intersection points (1776, -4186) and (-770, 1816) respectively.
How can that be?

Susan Harvey pose la question :
Hi I am a teacher and have a calculus problem that I have a solution to but it seems so involved that I would be interested to see if their were other solutions.

Solve for x, if x is from -90 to 90 degrees

tan2x = 8cos{squared}x - cotx

Natural Logarithm Functions 1997-04-23
Rickson pose la question :
The following two questions are some of my son's homework that he is having trouble with......any advice or assistance would be appreciated.

(eX)5=1000.............the X and 5 are exponents

lnx + ln(x+3) = ln10

In each question the problem is to find x.

Will this always yield a palindrome? 1996-08-28
Andy Golden pose la question :
My friend Justin Skywatcher, said that when his children were in 6th grade, they were taught that if you take any number, reverse it and add the two together, a palindrome will result. If not, continue performing the above operations, and a palindrome will eventually result. Will this always yield a palindrome?
Chris Fisher lui répond.
