Answer:
x=44-y
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, there are 44 glasses in total. Additionally, we want to know how many ice teas she can have; therefore, we must find x. The problem tells us that when x and y are added together they should equal 44. One way to solve this is to write the equation, x+y=44, because we know it is true and then solve for x. To find x subtract y from both sides. This equals x=44-y, the final answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
this can be "split" into 3 rectangles.
their areas can be easily calculated. and then we simply sum them all up for the answer.
rectangle 1 on the top
R1 = 5×9 = 45
rectangle 2 in the middle
R2 = (19+5)×(35-9-15) = 24×11 = 264
rectangle 3 at the bottom
R3 = 39×15 = 585
and all together
45+264+585 = 894

A 4 metre ladder is placed against a vertical wall.
The base of the ladder is 1.5 metres from the base of the wall.
Answer:
Original position: base is 1.5 meters away from the wall and the vertical distance from the top end to the ground let it be y and length of the ladder be L.
Step-by-step explanation:
By pythagorean theorem, L^2=y^2+(1.5)^2=y^2+2.25 Eq1.
Final position: base is 2 meters away, and the vertical distance from top end to the ground is y - 0.25 because it falls down the wall 0.25 meters and length of the ladder is also L.
By pythagorean theorem, L^2=(y -0.25)^2+(2)^2=y^2–0.5y+ 0.0625+4=y^2–0.5y+4.0625 Eq 2.
Equating both Eq 1 and Eq 2: y^2+2.25=y^2–0.5y+4.0625
y^2-y^2+0.5y+2.25–4.0625=0
0.5y- 1.8125=0
0.5y=1.8125
y=1.8125/0.5= 3.625
Using Eq 1: L^2=(3.625)^2+2.25=15.390625, L=(15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder
Using Eq 2: L^2=(3.625)^2–0.5(3.625)+4.0625
L^2=13.140625–0.90625+4.0615=15.390625
L= (15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
You are looking for the highest common factor for 270 and 360.
Factor the 2 numbers
270 = 2 * 5 * 3 * 3 * 3
360 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5
Each of the numbers has a 5
Each of the numbers has two threes
Each of the numbers has one 2
So the answer is 2 * 3*3 * 5
Find all possible values of α+
β+γ when tanα+tanβ+tanγ = tanαtanβtanγ (-π/2<α<π/2 , -π/2<β<π/2 , -π/2<γ<π/2)
Show your work too. Thank you!
Answer:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle 0,\pm\pi [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
please note that to find but α+β+γ in other words the sum of α,β and γ not α,β and γ individually so it's not an equation
===========================
we want to find all possible values of α+β+γ when tanα+tanβ+tanγ = tanαtanβtanγ to do so we can use algebra and trigonometric skills first
cancel tanγ from both sides which yields:
[tex] \rm\displaystyle \tan( \alpha ) + \tan( \beta ) = \tan( \alpha ) \tan( \beta ) \tan( \gamma ) - \tan( \gamma ) [/tex]
factor out tanγ:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \alpha ) + \tan( \beta ) = \tan( \gamma ) (\tan( \alpha ) \tan( \beta ) - 1)[/tex]
divide both sides by tanαtanβ-1 and that yields:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = \frac{ \tan( \alpha ) + \tan( \beta ) }{ \tan( \alpha ) \tan( \beta ) - 1}[/tex]
multiply both numerator and denominator by-1 which yields:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = - \bigg(\frac{ \tan( \alpha ) + \tan( \beta ) }{ 1 - \tan( \alpha ) \tan( \beta ) } \bigg)[/tex]
recall angle sum indentity of tan:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = - \tan( \alpha + \beta ) [/tex]
let α+β be t and transform:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = - \tan( t) [/tex]
remember that tan(t)=tan(t±kπ) so
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = -\tan( \alpha +\beta\pm k\pi ) [/tex]
therefore when k is 1 we obtain:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = -\tan( \alpha +\beta\pm \pi ) [/tex]
remember Opposite Angle identity of tan function i.e -tan(x)=tan(-x) thus
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = \tan( -\alpha -\beta\pm \pi ) [/tex]
recall that if we have common trigonometric function in both sides then the angle must equal which yields:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \gamma = - \alpha - \beta \pm \pi [/tex]
isolate -α-β to left hand side and change its sign:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \alpha + \beta + \gamma = \boxed{ \pm \pi }[/tex]
when is 0:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = -\tan( \alpha +\beta \pm 0 ) [/tex]
likewise by Opposite Angle Identity we obtain:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \tan( \gamma ) = \tan( -\alpha -\beta\pm 0 ) [/tex]
recall that if we have common trigonometric function in both sides then the angle must equal therefore:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \gamma = - \alpha - \beta \pm 0 [/tex]
isolate -α-β to left hand side and change its sign:
[tex]\rm\displaystyle \alpha + \beta + \gamma = \boxed{ 0 }[/tex]
and we're done!
Answer:
-π, 0, and π
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve for tan y :
tan y (tan a + tan B - 1) = tan a + tan y
Assuming tan a + tan B ≠ 1, we obtain
[tex]tan/y/=-\frac{tan/a/+tan/B/}{1-tan/a/tan/B/} =-tan(a+B)[/tex]
which implies that
y = -a - B + kπ
for some integer k. Thus
a + B + y = kπ
With the stated limitations, we can only have k = 0, k = 1 or k = -1. All cases are possible: we get k = 0 for a = B = y = 0; we get k = 1 when a, B, y are the angles of an acute triangle; and k = - 1 by taking the negatives of the previous cases.
It remains to analyze the case when "tan "a" tan B = 1, which is the same as saying that tan B = cot a = tan(π/2 - a), so
[tex]B=\frac{\pi }{2} - a + k\pi[/tex]
but with the given limitation we must have k = 0, because 0 < π/2 - a < π.
On the other hand we also need "tan "a" + tan B = 0, so B = - a + kπ, but again
k = 0, so we obtain
[tex]\frac{\pi }{2} - a=-a[/tex]
a contradiction.
which values are soloutions to the inequality -3x - 4 < 2 ? check all of the boxes that apply
Given:
The inequality is:
[tex]-3x-4<2[/tex]
To find:
The values that are solutions to the given inequality.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]-3x-4<2[/tex]
Adding 4 on both sides, we get
[tex]-3x-4+4<2+4[/tex]
[tex]-3x<6[/tex]
Divide both sides by -3 and change the inequality sign because -3 is a negative value.
[tex]\dfrac{-3x}{-3}>\dfrac{6}{-3}[/tex]
[tex]x>-2[/tex]
Therefore, all the real values greater than -2 are the solutions to the given inequality.

Function A and Function B are linear functions. Function A x y – 10 – 14 – 1 – 5 9 5 Function B y=2x+4 Which statement is true?
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Function A is not clear; I will use the following in place of function A
Function A:
[tex]x \to\ 1 |\ 3 |\ 4 |\ 6[/tex]
[tex]y \to -1|\ 3|\ 5|\ 9[/tex]
Function B:
[tex]y = 2x + 4[/tex]
Required
Compare both functions
For linear functions, we often compare the slope and the y intercepts only.
Calculating the slope of function A, we have:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
Where:
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (1,-1)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (3,3)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]m = \frac{3 - -1}{3 - 1}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{4}{2}[/tex]
[tex]m = 2[/tex]
To calculate the y intercept, we set [tex]x = 0[/tex], then solve for y
i.e.[tex](x,y) = (0,y)[/tex]
Using the slope formula, we have:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]m = 2[/tex]
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,y)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (3,3)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]2 = \frac{3 - y}{3 - 0}[/tex]
[tex]2 = \frac{3 - y}{3}[/tex]
Multiply by 3
[tex]6 = 3 - y[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]y = 3 - 6[/tex]
[tex]y = -3[/tex]
So, for function A:
[tex]m = 2[/tex] -- slope
[tex]y = -3[/tex] --- y intercept
For function B
[tex]y = 2x + 4[/tex]
A linear function is represented as:
[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]
By comparison
[tex]m = 2[/tex] --- slope
[tex]b = 4[/tex] --- y intercept
By comparing the results of both functions, we have the following conclusion:
Functions A and B have the same slope (i.e. 2)
Function B has a greater y intercept (i.e. 4)
which of the following are identities? check all that apply.
A. (sinx + cosx)^2= 1+sin2x
B. sin6x=2 sin3x cos3x
C. sin3x/sinxcosx = 4cosx - secx
D. sin3x-sinx/cos3x+cosx = tanx
Answer: (a), (b), (c), and (d)
Step-by-step explanation:
Check the options
[tex](a)\\\Rightarrow [\sin x+\cos x]^2=\sin ^2x+\cos ^2x+2\sin x\cos x\\\Rightarrow [\sin x+\cos x]^2=1+2\sin x\cos x\\\Rightarrow \Rightarrow [\sin x+\cos x]^2=1+\sin 2x[/tex]
[tex](b)\\\Rightarrow \sin (6x)=\sin 2(3x)\\\Rightarrow \sin 2(3x)=2\sin (3x)\cos (3x)[/tex]
[tex](c)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\sin 3x}{\sin x\cos x}=\dfrac{3\sin x-4\sin ^3x}{\sin x\cos x}\\\\\Rightarrow 3\sec x-4\sin ^2x\sec x\\\Rightarrow 3\sec x-4[1-\cos ^2x]\sec x\\\Rightarrow 3\sec x-4\sec x+4\cos x\\\Rightarrow 4\cos x-\sec x[/tex]
[tex](d)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\sin 3x-\sin x}{\cos 3x+\cos x}=\dfrac{2\cos [\frac{3x+x}{2}] \sin [\frac{3x-x}{2}]}{2\cos [\frac{3x+x}{2}]\cos [\frac{3x-x}{2}]}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2\cos 2x\sin x}{2\cos 2x\cos x}=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\\\\\Rightarrow \tan x[/tex]
Thus, all the identities are correct.
A. Not an identity
B. An identity
C. Not an identity
D. An identity
To check whether each expression is an identity, we need to verify if the equation holds true for all values of the variable x. If it is true for all values of x, then it is an identity. Let's check each option:
A. [tex]\((\sin x + \cos x)^2 = 1 + \sin 2x\)[/tex]
To check if this is an identity, let's expand the left-hand side (LHS):
[tex]\((\sin x + \cos x)^2 = \sin^2 x + 2\sin x \cos x + \cos^2 x\)[/tex]
Now, we can use the trigonometric identity [tex]\(\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1\)[/tex] to simplify the LHS:
[tex]\(\sin^2 x + 2\sin x \cos x + \cos^2 x = 1 + 2\sin x \cos x\)[/tex]
The simplified LHS is not equal to the right-hand side (RHS) 1 + sin 2x since it is missing the sin 2x term. Therefore, option A is not an identity.
B. [tex]\(\sin 6x = 2 \sin 3x \cos 3x\)[/tex]
To check if this is an identity, we can use the double-angle identity for sine:[tex]\(\sin 2\theta = 2\sin \theta \cos \theta\)[/tex]
Let [tex]\(2\theta = 6x\)[/tex], which means [tex]\(\theta = 3x\):[/tex]
[tex]\(\sin 6x = 2 \sin 3x \cos 3x\)[/tex]
The equation holds true with the double-angle identity, so option B is an identity.
C. [tex]\(\frac{\sin 3x}{\sin x \cos x} = 4\cos x - \sec x\)[/tex]
To check if this is an identity, we can simplify the right-hand side (RHS) using trigonometric identities.
Recall that [tex]\(\sec x = \frac{1}{\cos x}\):[/tex]
[tex]\(4\cos x - \sec x = 4\cos x - \frac{1}{\cos x} = \frac{4\cos^2 x - 1}{\cos x}\)[/tex]
Now, using the double-angle identity for sine, [tex]\(\sin 2\theta = 2\sin \theta \cos \theta\),[/tex] let [tex]\(\theta = x\):[/tex]
[tex]\(\sin 2x = 2\sin x \cos x\)[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 2: [tex]\(2\sin x \cos x = \sin 2x\)[/tex]
Now, the left-hand side (LHS) becomes:
[tex]\(\frac{\sin 3x}{\sin x \cos x} = \frac{\sin 2x}{\sin x \cos x}\)[/tex]
Using the double-angle identity for sine again, let [tex]\(2\theta = 2x\):[/tex]
[tex]\(\frac{\sin 2x}{\sin x \cos x} = \frac{2\sin x \cos x}{\sin x \cos x} = 2\)[/tex]
So, the LHS is 2, which is not equal to the RHS [tex]\(\frac{4\cos^2 x - 1}{\cos x}\)[/tex]. Therefore, option C is not an identity.
D. [tex]\(\frac{\sin 3x - \sin x}{\cos 3x + \cos x} = \tan x\)[/tex]
To check if this is an identity, we can use the sum-to-product trigonometric identities:
[tex]\(\sin A - \sin B = 2\sin \frac{A-B}{2} \cos \frac{A+B}{2}\)\(\cos A + \cos B = 2\cos \frac{A+B}{2} \cos \frac{A-B}{2}\)[/tex]
Let A = 3x and B = x:
[tex]\(\sin 3x - \sin x = 2\sin x \cos 2x\)\(\cos 3x + \cos x = 2\cos 2x \cos x\)[/tex]
Now, we can rewrite the expression:
[tex]\(\frac{\sin 3x - \sin x}{\cos 3x + \cos x} = \frac{2\sin x \cos 2x}{2\cos 2x \cos x} = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x} = \tan x\)[/tex]
The equation holds true, so option D is an identity.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Option B is correct, 4 and 3/10 hours will Mrs. Nygaard need to work over the weekend to finish grading the projects.
What is Fraction?A fraction represents a part of a whole.
To find the total amount of time Mrs. Nygaard has available during the week to grade projects, we need to add up the hours for each day:
1 and three-fourths + 1 and one-half + 1 and one-fifth + 2 + 1 and one-fourth = 7 and five-tenths hours
This means that Mrs. Nygaard has 7.5 hours during the week to grade projects.
If she needs 12 hours to grade all the projects, then she will need to work for an additional:
12 - 7.5 = 4.5 hours over the weekend to finish grading the projects.
Therefore, 4 and 3/10 hours required to Mrs. Nygaard need to work over the weekend to finish grading the projects.

Answers:
3 chocolate cones
1 strawberry cones
===========================================================
Explanation:
Let's isolate the variable c in the first equation
c+s = 4
c = 4-s
we subtract s from both sides to get c all by itself. This will then be plugged into the second equation. I'm using the substitution property.
1.75c + 1.3s = 6.55
1.75(4-s) + 1.3s = 6.55 ..... replace c with 4-s
1.75*4 + 1.75*(-s) + 1.3s = 6.55
7 - 1.75s + 1.3s = 6.55
-0.45s + 7 = 6.55
-0.45s = 6.55 - 7
-0.45s = -0.45
s = -0.45/(-0.45)
s = 1
So he bought 1 strawberry cone. Use this value of s to find c
c = 4-s
c = 4-1
c = 3
This says he also bought 3 chocolate cones.
-------------------
As a check, we see that c+s = 3+1 = 4, showing that he bought 4 cones total.
Also,
1.75c + 1.3s = 1.75*3 + 1.3*1 = 6.55
indicating he spent $6.55 total for the four cones. This matches with what the instructions tell us, so the answer is confirmed.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\left \{ {{c+s=4} \atop {1.75c+1.3s=6.55}} \right.[/tex]
1.75c + 1.75s = 1.75 × 4 ........ (1)
1.75c + 1.3s = 6.55 ........ (2)
(1) - (2)
0.45s = 0.45 ⇒ s = 1
c + 1 = 4 ⇒ c = 3

[tex]4x-26=x+16[/tex]
Add 26 and subtract [tex]x[/tex] from both sides:
[tex]3x=42[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3:
[tex]x=\frac{42}{3}=14[/tex]
Since [tex]\angle A[/tex] was labelled as [tex]4x-26[/tex], substitute [tex]x=14[/tex] to find its measure:
[tex]\angle A=4(14)-26,\\\angle A=56-26,\\\angle A=\boxed{30^{\circ}}[/tex]
You can also substitute [tex]x=14[/tex] into the label of angle D as angle A is congruent to angle D for easier calculations ([tex]14+16=\boxed{30^{\circ}}[/tex]).
