Answer:
it would take 2.25 1/3 cups if you are looking for an exact answer, or if you are looking for the minimum amount of 1/3 cups necessary to make 3/4 it would be 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this by cross multiplying 1/3 and 3/4
You will get 9/4 which simplifies to 2 1/4 or 2.25
Use the identity
sec^2x = 1 + tan^2 x
- so sec x = sqrt(1 + tan^2 x) then:-
tan x + sqrt( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1
sqrt ( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1 - tan x
1 + tan^2 x = 1 + tan^2x - 2 tan x
0 = -2 tanx
tan x = 0
x = 0, π
π is an extraneous root because sec 180 = -1
So the answer is 0 degrees
