Answer

• A. Equation: 25(5 + x) = 325

,

• B. Answer: 8 dogs

Explanation

Given

• Charge to wash a dog: $25.

• She washed 5 dogs on Saturday and then some more on Sunday.

• She made $325 for the weekend.

Procedure

She charges $25 per wash, she made $325 for the weekend, and we know that on Saturday she washed 5 dogs, but we don't know how many she washed on Sunday. Thus, we have to build an equation in which the number of dogs washed on Sunday is represented by x (as we do not know the real number).

Considering that the total money made has to be equal to the multiplication of the charge times the dogs washed, the equation is:

$25(5+x)=325$

Then, we have to solve for x to know how many dogs did she wash on Sunday.

0. Multiplying the parenthesis

$125+25x=325$

<em>2. Subtracting 125 from both sides of the equation</em>

$125-125+25x=325-125$ $25x=200$

<em>3. Dividing both sides of the equation against 25</em>

$\frac{25x}{25}=\frac{200}{25}$ $x=8$

Find the exact value by using a half angle identity.tan 75°

kramer

The trigonometric function is given as

$\tan 75^{\circ}$

Apply the half angle identity to find the value of tan 75 ,

$\tan (\frac{u}{2})=\frac{\sin u}{1+\cos u}$

Here,

$\tan (\frac{150^{\circ}}{2})=\frac{\sin150^{\circ}}{1+cos150^{\circ}}$ $\tan (75^{\circ})=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{1-\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2-\sqrt[]{3}}{2}}^{}$ $\tan 75^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2-\sqrt[]{3}}$

Now rationalize the function.

$\tan 75^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2-\sqrt[]{3}}\times\frac{2+\sqrt[]{3}}{2+\sqrt[]{3}}=\frac{2+\sqrt[]{3}}{4-3}=\frac{2+\sqrt[]{3}}{1}$

Again simplify the trigonometric function,

$\tan 75^{\circ}=2+1.732=3.732$

Hence the answer is 3.732.

A gallery has 25 paintings in its permanent collection, with display space for 10 at one time. How many different collections ca

Anastaziya [24]

You need to know in how many ways you can choose 10 out of 25 items when order does not matter. This is a combination problem.

$_{n}C_{r} = \dfrac{n!}{(n - r)!r!}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{25!}{(25 - 10)!10!}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{25 \times 24 \times 23 \times 22 \times 21 \times 20 \times 19 \times 18 \times 17 \times 16 \times 15!}{15! \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{25 \times 24 \times 23 \times 22 \times 21 
\times 20 \times 19 \times 18 \times 17 \times 16}{10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 
\times 2 \times 1}$

$_{25}C_{10} = \dfrac{23 \times 11 \times 20 \times 19 \times 2 \times 17}{1}$

$_{25}C_{10} = 23 \times 11 \times 20 \times 19 \times 2 \times 17$

$_{25}C_{10} = 3,268,760$
