4cos(x)+1=0.6
Move 1to the right side
4cos(x)+1=0.6
Subtract 1 from both sides4cos(x)+1−1=0.6−1
Simplify4cos(x)=−0.4
4cos(x)=−0.4
Divide both sides by 4
4cos(x)=−0.4
Divide both sides by 444cos(x)​=4−0.4​
Simplify
44cos(x)​=4−0.4​
Simplify 44cos(x)​:cos(x)
44cos(x)​
Divide the numbers: 44​=1=cos(x)
Simplify 4−0.4​:−0.1
4−0.4​
Apply the fraction rule: b−a​=−ba​=−40.4​
Divide the numbers: 40.4​=0.1=−0.1
cos(x)=−0.1
cos(x)=−0.1
cos(x)=−0.1
Apply trig inverse properties
cos(x)=−0.1
General solutions for cos(x)=−0.1cos(x)=−a⇒x=arccos(−a)+360∘n,x=−arccos(−a)+360∘nx=arccos(−0.1)+360∘n,x=−arccos(−0.1)+360∘n
