Factor the algebraic expression below in terms of a single trigonometric function cos x - sin 2x - 1

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: cos x - sin² x - 1 = 
= cos x - ( cos² x - 1 ) - 1 =
= cos x - cos² x + 1 - 1 =
= cos x - cos² x =
= cos x · ( 1 - cos x ) 
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

(cosx+2)(cosx-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

cos x - sin²x - 1

sin²x = 1- cos²x

plug in

cos x - (1- cos²x) - 1 = cos x - 1 + cos²x - 1 = cos²x + cos x - 2

factor cos²x + cos x - 2

(cosx+2)(cosx-1)

VERY EASY QUESTIONMadison made a mistake when she combined terms. Explain what Madison did wrong? Explain and give an example of what she should have done.

What Madison did step by step:
7-3(4-2x)-10x
7-3(2x)-10x
7-6x-10x
7-16x

Answers

Her mistake is that she didn't distribute the terms correctly . She subtracted 4 and- 2x , which is incorrect . She had to multiply -3 and the numbers inside the parenthesis .
the mistake is in combining 4 with -2x because they're not like terms
