Why doesn't 2cosx − 3 = 0 have solutions?
cos x is never bigger than one
cos x is never equal to a fraction
Actually, this equation does have a solution, x = π
This equation will have a solution tomorrow.
Which of these is equivalent to 2cos2x − 3cosx = 0 ?
-cos2x = 0
cosx(2cosx + 3) = 0
cosx(2cosx − 3) = 0
cos x = ⅔
Choose a good way to start solving this equation
tanx sin2x = 2 tanx
divide tanx from both sides
factor out tanx
subtract 2 tanx from the left and then factor tanx out
cancel sin2x out
Factor 0 = sin2x − sinx
0 = sinx(sinx)
0 = sinx(1 − sinx)
0 = cosx(sinx − 1)
0 = sinx(sinx − 1)
