Answer:

9/14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability is given as a fraction or percentage.

9:5 odds in favour of a horse winning  means the horse will win 9 races for every 5 it does not win.

So the probability that this horse will win is 9/(9+5)

= 9/14.

Solve the linear equation. 8x 32=1/5(25x−15)−4x. for x.
Dahasolnce [82]

There is no sign before 32 is given in the equation. I am showing the work with +32.

8x+32=1/5(25x−15)−4x.

8x+32=5x-3-4x By distribution property.

8x+32=x-3 Combine the like terms.

8x=x-3-32 Subtract 32 from each sides.

8x=x-35 Combine the like terms.

8x-x=-35 Subtract x from each sides.

7x=-35

\frac{7x}{7} =-\frac{35}{7} Divide each sides by 7.

So, x=-5

Prove the identity of tan(pi - x) = - tan x
liq [111]

Two ways:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First way. Using the trig unit circle.

tan (pi - x) = - tan x

2. Second way. Apply the identity:

tan(a-b)=tan a- tan b/ 1 - tan a×tan b

tan (π - x)= tan π - tanx/1 - tan(π)×tanx

Since tan (pi) = 0, therefor:

tan(π−x)=−tanx
