Cos 157.5º=-cos (180º-157.5º)=-cos 22.5=-cos(45/2)

cos Ф/2=⁺₋√((1+cosФ)/2).

In this case 157.5º is in the second quadrant, therefore we use the following equation:
cos Ф/2=-√((1+cosФ)/2).          (we will have a negative number)

cos 157.5º=-cos (45/2)=-√((1+cos 45º)/2)
=-√((1+√2/2)/2)
=-√((2+√2)/4)
=-√(2+√2) / 2   (≈-0.92387...)

Answer: cos 157.5º= -√(2+√2) / 2

use equation A(t) = a(1+r)^t to solve. you want to find the starting so solve for A

1000 = a(1+.03)^5

1000 = 1.1592740743a

one container is filled with a mixture that is 30% acid a second container is filled with the mixture that is 50% acid the secon
Romashka [77]

Answer:

42%

Step-by-step explanation:

x is for the volume of the  container

the amount filled in the first container=0.30x

the volume of the first container + 50% of the second=(x+x*50%)=1.5 x

the amount of acid in the second container= 1.5x * 50%=0.75x

total amount of acid in the third one =0.3x+0.75x=1.05x

total solution : x+1.5x=2.5x

percentage=1.05x/2.5x= 0.42 or 42%
