d.

z>x

x=5/2
y=5/2

if 2x over three =5,2y-2 over 4 =3,and z over 2 +z over 3=5 which of the following is true

2X/3 = 5

2X = 5(3)

2x = 15

X = 15/2

(2Y-2)/4 = 3

2Y-2 = 3(4)

2Y-2 = 12

2Y = 14

Y=7


Z/2 + Z/3 = 5

3Z/6 + 2Z/6 = 5

5Z = 5(6)

Z = 6


_______________

A.  X>Y

It can get more complex (see pre-calc with limits)

But I think I learned trig as a 7th grader here in The States.

xy – a = ax + y How do you solve that for x? Would it be x = (ax + y) + a) / y?

xy -a = ax + y

x = (a + ax + y) / y is what I get. But I'm probably wrong.

Well, it depends. Do you divide the y or add the a first? I can't remember.

Simplify:   

1-csc x
csc x



sin²u x cot²u + sin²u



sin(x-(pie/6))




tan7u + tan5u
1-tan7u x tan5x


Any type of showing steps shown would be wonderful.

Given:


Cos x = (2/3) and 3pie/2<x<2pie, find cos(x/2)

Only going to do the first one since I'm reading a book.

Just change csc(x) to 1/sin(x), and then you've got a fraction over a fraction. The rest should be algebra -- no more identities needed.

Okay, second one:

sin^2(u)(cot^2(u)+1)    -- distributive property

Then, change cot^2(u) to cos^2(u)/sin^2(u), use some algebra to un/re-distribute it, sin^2(u) should cancel on the first term (the fraction), and then use the identity cos^2(u)+sin^2(u) = 1

Third one, I guess you could use the sum/difference identities, but I don't know if that really counts as simplifying. (sin(u-v)=sin(u)cos(v)-cos(u)sin(v))

Fourth looks like a royal bastard and I don't see a way to do it easily off my head.

And fifth, it's been too long since I've done trig and it's too late for me to try too hard. :P

Most of the people who are fluent in french are far away from fluent in english so...=\

y00tz you should make an IRC channel for people to get homework help, so they can play even MORE DP.
I like this idea too.  I am pretty good in alg too.
