He rounded it to the nearest hundred, not ten. Ten would be 560.

Hope this helps!

Coles mistake in he rounded to the nearest hundreds. He needed to round it to 560 because the tens place is the second number not the first.

Answer:

c. 3680

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2010, the population was 8000.

In 2014, it increased by 15%.

Population in 2014 :

= 8000 + 15/100×8000

= 8000 + 1200

= 9200.

Now, 2/5 of the population was age 12 or under.

= 2/5 × 9200

= 2×1840

= 3680

Answer - c) 3680

Prove that sin20sin40sin60sin80=3/16

never [62]

We'll use the following properties of sine and cosine to prove this:

$sin(a)\cdot sin(b) = \frac12(cos(a-b) - cos(a+b))$

$cos(a)\cdot cos(b) = \frac12(cos(a+b) + cos(a-b))$

$cos(180+a) = cos(180-a)$

Then it's just a matter of filling it in...

sin20sin40 * sin60sin80 = 1/2(cos20 - cos60) * 1/2 (cos20 - cos140) =

1/8( cos40 + 1 - cos160 - cos120 - cos40 - cos80 + cos80 + cos200) =

1/8(1 - cos160 - cos120 + cos200) =

1/8(1 - cos160 - cos120 + cos160) =

1/8(1 - cos120 ) = 1/8( 1 + 1/2 ) = 3/16
