Which of the following equations has no solutions: a) sec x + 2 = 0 b) cos x- 3 = 0 c) sin x ( sin x + 1) = 0 3 tan x- 1 = 0

OpenStudy (tomektomeknyc):

not sure

hartnn (hartnn):

hint : range of cos function is ??

hartnn (hartnn):

do you know or can you find out ?

OpenStudy (tomektomeknyc):

- infinity to infinity ?

hartnn (hartnn):

thats the domain! range of cos function is from -1 to 1 and cos x -3 = 0 means cos x = 3 is that even possible ? :)

OpenStudy (tomektomeknyc):

no

hartnn (hartnn):

correct! so, cos x+3 does not have any solution for x :)

hartnn (hartnn):

***cos x =3

OpenStudy (tomektomeknyc):

thank you

hartnn (hartnn):
