Answer:
268.40
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a ratio to solve
2.5 meters 22 meters
----------------- = --------------
30.5 dollars x dollars
Using cross products
2.5 * x = 30.5 * 22
2.5x =671
Divide each side by 2.5
2.5x / 2.5 = 671/2.5
x =268.4
2x + y = x - y - 3 = 6
Add 3 to everything
2x + y + 3 = x - y - 3 + 3 = 6 + 3
2x + y + 3 = x - y = 9
2x + y + 3 = 9
2x + y = 6 = x - y
Add y to everything
2x + 2y = 6 + y = x
Since x = 6 + y substitute every x with 6 + y
2(6 + y) + 2y = x
12 + 4y = x
This is as simplified as I can get and then just place 12 + 4y into every x in the original problem then solve
We can use tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x). Plug in numbers to get:
tan(x+pi/2) = sin(x+pi/2)/cos(x+pi/2)
Here, you can use the sin and cos addition identity:
tan(x+pi/2) = (sin(x)cos(pi/2)+cos(x)sin(pi/2))/(cos(x)cos(pi/2)+sin(x)sin(pi/2))
If you simplify this, you get:
0+cos(x)/0-sin(x)
Which is the definition of cot(x). But, we can't forget about the '-' sign, so, the answer is -cot(x)
