1. Set each factor to zero to find the basic trigonometric equations
Since (2+3cosx)(4−5sinx)=0, we have:
2+3cosx=0⟹cosx=−32
or
4−5sinx=0⟹sinx=54
2. Solve $\cos x = -\frac{2}{3}$ for $0 \le x \le 7$
Basic angle α=cos−1(32)≈0.84107 rad.
Since cosx is negative, x is in the 2nd and 3rd quadrants.
x=π−0.84107 or π+0.84107
x≈2.3005 or 3.9827
(The next solution 3π−0.84107≈8.58>7)
3. Solve $\sin x = \frac{4}{5}$ for $0 \le x \le 7$
Basic angle β=sin−1(54)≈0.92730 rad.
Since sinx is positive, x is in the 1st and 2nd quadrants.
x=0.92730 or π−0.92730
x≈0.92730 or 2.2143
(The next solution 2π+0.92730≈7.21>7)
4. State the final values of $x$ rounded to 3 significant figures
x=0.927,2.21,2.30,3.98
答案x=0.927,2.21,2.30,3.98
