Student B is wrong , student A is correct in simplifying the expression .

Expression B must be simplified to cot θ .

Formulas to be used are :

1 - sin^{2} θ = cos^{2}θ

 1 - cot^{2}θ = tan^{2}θ .

Since , location of error is step 3 , we will start from there

[ ( 1 - sin^{2}θ ) / sin θ ] / cos θ    = [ ( 1 - sin^{2}θ ) / sin θ ] * [ 1 / cos θ ]

                          = ( 1 - sin^{2}θ ) / ( sin θ * cos θ )

               = cos^{2} θ / ( sin θ * cos θ )

                   = cot θ .

How do you graph (-9,5 8)
dusya [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have a co-ordinate plane with you, it will greatly help.

First, move -9.5 units to the left.

Then, move 8 units up.

You will most likely land on a line. If you don't, try it again.

If you do, put your point right there!

A kite with a string 80 feet long makes an angle of elevation of 40° with the ground, assuming the string is straight, how high
defon
The diagram of the kite is shown below

To find the perpendicular height of the kite from the ground, we use the trigonometry ratio for sin(x).

The reason for using the sine ratio is because we have the hypotenuse, 80 feet, and the angle, 40° and we are looking for the length of the side opposite the angle.

sin(x)= \frac{opp}{hyp}
sin(40)= \frac{x}{80}
80sin(40)=x
x=51.42 rounded to two decimal place

Perpendicular height of the kite from the ground is 51.42 feet

Which set of ordered pairs could be generated by an exponential function?
klemol [59]

Answer: Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, Exponential functions have the following form:

y = ab^x

Where "b" is the base (b > 0 and b\neq 1), "a" is a coefficient (a\neq 0) and "x" is the exponent.

 It is importat to remember that the "Zero exponent rule" states that  any base with an exponent of 0 is equal to 1.

Then, for an input value 0 (x=0) the output value (value of "y") of the set of ordered pairs that could be generated by an exponential function must be 1 (y=1).

You can observe in the Third option shown in the image that when x=0, y=1

 Therefore, the set of ordered pairs that could be generated by an exponential function is the set shown in the Third option.

Suppose that a company selects two people who work independently inspecting two-by-four timbers. Their job is to identify low-qu
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Probability that an inspector doe not identify  low-quality timber=0.20

(a)Probability that both inspector do not identify a low quality timber

P=0.2\times 0.2=0.04

(b)Let n be the no of inspector

Probability should be less than  1%=0.01

so \left ( 0.2\right )^n

Taking \lnboth sides

x>\frac{\ln 0.01}{\ln 0.2}

x>2.861

thus minimum value of x is 3

(c)From part b it is clear that minimum 3 officer are required to to keep the low  quality timber below 1%

on an average 2 officer are not sufficient to identify 4 low quality timber out of 100
