A number plus 16 times its reciprocal equals 4. Find all possible values for the number.(My question was not answered correctly for this time I earnestly beg for someone to give the steps and a proper answer.)

-8±√17 and -8±6√2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x+16/x=4, x^2+16-4x=0. x=-8±√17

2. x+16/x=8, x^2+16-8=0. x=-8±6√2

step-by-step explanation:

i found the koficent of the linear function and i foun c acordind to the strict formula y=kx+c and then i took 2 as an x and replacet it on the formula i found and then foun the y

answer: cos [   arcsin (3/5) - arccos (1/2) ] =

step-by-step explanation: × = 3/5 = 0.6--> x = 36.87 and x = 180 - 36.87 = 143.13 deg

cos y = 1/2 --> y = +- 60 deg a. cos (x - y) = cos (143.13 - 60) = cos 83,13  

=

0.12

b. cos (36.87 - 60) = cos (-23.23) = 0.92
