Θ is in Quadrant III and cos^2 0= 1/4

I think you mean to say \cos^2\theta=\dfrac14. If \theta is in the third quadrant, then \sin\theta and \cos\theta. Recall that


\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1\implies\sin\theta=\pm\sqrt{1-\cos^2\theta}

We expect \sin\theta to be negative, so we take the negative root. We end up with

\sin\theta=-\sqrt{1-\dfrac14}=-\dfrac{\sqrt3}2

We also know to expect \cos\theta, so

\cos\theta=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac14}\implies\cos\theta=-\dfrac12


By definition, we have

\cot\theta=\dfrac{\cos\theta}{\sin\theta}

and so

\cot\theta=\dfrac{-\frac12}{-\frac{\sqrt3}2}=\dfrac1{\sqrt3}

Helen paid $246 for three jeans from her favourite clothing store. How much did she pay for each jeans she bought?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

estimate: $80

exact amount paid: $82

Step-by-step explanation:

If you round $246 to 240, then divide it by 3, you should get $80. The cost per pair should be around $80 each

For the exact answer you take the amount spent (246) and divide it by the amount of jeans she bought (3).

246/3 = 82

Matt invests $1,669 in a saving account with a fixed annual interest rate of 2% compounded 12 times per year. How long will it t
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

It will take 4.84 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial amount that Matt invested was $1669. It means that principal is

P = 1669

It was compounded 12 times per year. So

n = 12

The rate at which the principal was compounded is 2%. So

r = 2/100 = 0.02

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.

A = 1,844.38

Therefore

1,844.38 = 1669(1+0.02/12)^(12×t)

1,844.38/1669 = (1.0017)^(12t)

1.1051 = (1.0017)^(12t)

Taking log to base 10 of both sides, it becomes

Log 1.1051 = log 1.0017^(12t)

Log 1.1051 = 12tlog 1.0017

0.043 = 0.00074 × 12t

0.043 = 0.00888t

t = 0.043/0.00888

t = 4.84 years
