REY [17]3 years ago

Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let chocolate pie be x and apple pie be y

Darryl made $38 from 2 chocolate pies and 4 apple pies

That’s

2x + 4y = $38

Kayla made $138 from 14 chocolate pies and 12 apple pies

That’s

14x + 12y = $138

We now have two equations

Equation 1 : 2x + 4y = 38

Equation 2: 14x + 12y = 138

Multiply equation one by 12 and equation 2 by 4 to eliminate apple pie y

We have

12 x 2x + 12 x 4y = 12 x 38

4 x 14x + 4 x 12y = 4 x 138

24x + 48y = 456

56x + 48y = 552

Subtract equation equation two from one

-32x = -96

Divide both sides by -32

x = -96/-32

x = 3

A chocolate pie cost $3

Write the complex number in the form a + bi.<br> 3(cos 60° + i sin 60°)
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The complex number in the form of a + b i is 3/2 + i √3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the complex number in Cartesian form and polar form

- The complex number in the Cartesian form is a + bi

-The complex number in the polar form is r(cosФ + i sinФ)

* Lets revise how we can find one from the other

- r² = a² + b²

- tanФ = b/a

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ z = 3(cos 60° + i sin 60°)

∴ r = 3 and Ф = 60°

∵ cos 60° = 1/2

∵ sin 60 = √3/2

- Substitute these values in z

∴ z = 3(1/2 + i √3/2) ⇒ open the bracket

∴ z = 3/2 + i √3/2

* The complex number in the form of a + b i is 3/2 + i √3/2

Tan(a)+cot(b) simplify please.
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

tan a + cot b

Step-by-step explanation:

It's already simplified.

There are alternate forms like

sec(a)csc(b)cos(a-b)\\\\sec(a)csc(b)[sin(a)sin(b)+cos(a)cos(b)]\\\\\frac{sin (a)}{cos (a)} +\frac{cos(b)}{sin(b)}
