The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars
Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:
y = x - 6 (1)
The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:
xy = 112 (2)
Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.
Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:
x(x - 6) = 112 (3)
This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.
The answer is 7.20 because $18 divided by 2.5% is 7.20
Well, if this is assuming there is no tax on the vehicle and it is fully paid off by the end of the payments, an equation can be set up like the following. 385x+1500=C, x being months and C being total cost. 385(12*4)+1500= C, 385(48)+1500=C, 18480+1500=C, 19980=C.
John brought 20 water melons each water melon cost him 2 dollars. He gave his friend Bob 3/4 of the watermelons. In return bob gave him double the amount of water melons back. How many watermelons does John have now? How much money did he spend on each water melon?
Answer:
-cos^4(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Use the Pythagorean identity : 1=cos^2(x) + sin^2(x)
1-sin^2(x) = cos^2(x)
-1+sin^2(x) = -cos^2(x)
cos^2(x) (-cos^2(x))
Step 2: Factor out common terms cos^2(x)
cos^2(x) (sin^2(x)-1)
Ans: -cos^4(x)
