Find the number of solutions of sinx=x/(...

Find the number of solutions of `sinx=x/(10)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, let `f(x)=sin x` and `g(x) =x/10`. Also, we know that `-1 le sin x le 1`.
`rArr -1 le x/10 le 1`
or `-10 le x le 10`
As, sketch both curves when `x in [-10, 10]`.

From figure, `f(x)=sin x` and `g(x)=x//10`intersect at seven points. so, the number of solution is seven.
