Simplify: -2/5 + 4/3
hoa [83]

Answer:

14/15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the fractions to have the same denominator

Remember that you can only add fractions with the same denominator

To find the common denominator, find the LCM of 5 and 3 which is 15.

-2/5 * 3/3 = -6/15 and 4/3 * 5/5 = 20/15

-6/15 + 20/15 = 14/15

hope this helps! <3

Prove that (Root of Sec A - 1 / Root of Sec A + 1) + (Root of Sec A + 1 / Root of Sec A - 1) = 2 cosec A
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to prove that:

(Root of Sec A - 1 / Root of Sec A + 1) + (Root of Sec A + 1 / Root of Sec A - 1) = 2 cosec A.

Firstly, 1 / cos A = sec A, 1 / sin A = cosec A and tanA = sinA / cosA.

Also, 1 + tan²A = sec²A; sec²A - 1 = tan²A

\frac{\sqrt{secA-1} }{\sqrt{secA+1} } +\frac{\sqrt{secA+1} }{\sqrt{secA-1} } =\frac{(\sqrt{secA-1)}(\sqrt{secA-1})+(\sqrt{secA+1)}(\sqrt{secA+1}) }{(\sqrt{secA+1})(\sqrt{secA-1}) } \\\\=\frac{secA-1+(secA+1)}{\sqrt{sec^2A-secA+secA-1} } \\\\=\frac{2secA}{\sqrt{sec^2A-1} } \\\\=\frac{2secA}{\sqrt{tan^2A} } \\\\=\frac{2secA}{tanA} \\\\=\frac{2*\frac{1}{cosA} }{\frac{sinA}{cosA} }\\\\= 2*\frac{1}{cosA}*\frac{cosA}{sinA}\\\\=2*\frac{1}{sinAA}\\\\=2cosecA

Answer:
Mr.Brown received $5,602.5 last month

Step-by-step explanation:
Mr.Brown already has $5,600 and has 2.5. 2.5 as a fraction is 2 1/2, but it is easier having it as a decimal, so since it’s already a decimal all you need to do it add 5,600 and 2.5(5,600 + 2.5).
