What are all real x elements of the set A if they have the property | 3x - 4 | =

The property of the elements of the set A is to make the
inequality to hold.


We'll re-write the property, using
absolute value definition:


-6 =< 3x - 4 =<
6


We'll solve the system of
inequalities:


-6 =< 3x - 4 and 3x - 4 =<
6


We'll begin with the
first:


-6 =< 3x -
4


We'll add 4 both sideS:


-6 +
4 =< 3x


-2 =<
3x


x >= -2/3


We'll
solve the next inequality:


3x - 4 =<
6


We'll add 4 both sides:


3x
=< 6 + 4


3x =<
10


x =< 10/3


The common
interval of values that satisfy both inequalities is representing the set
A.


The set A is the opened interval: (-2/3 ;
10/3).

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
