How do I prove that 2 cot 2x = cot x-tan x?

We will start off working on the right hand side. 
<span>cot x - tan x </span>
<span>= [cos x / sin x] - [sin x / cos x] </span>
<span>= [(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2] / [sin x cos x] </span>

<span>This is where it gets a bit tougher if you do not have your formula list with you. </span>
<span>(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2 = cos(2x) </span>
<span>sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x </span>

<span>Note that by arranging the second formula, we will have sin x cos x = (1/2) sin 2x </span>

<span>Hence, we will get: </span>
<span>[(cos x)^ 2 - (sin x)^2] / [sin x cos x] </span>
<span>= [cos 2x] / (1/2)[sin 2x] </span>
<span>= 2[cos 2x] / [sin 2x] </span>
<span>= 2cot 2x </span>

Answer:

y = x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

\rm Solve \:  for  \: y: \\  \rm \longrightarrow  x  - y= 5 \\  \\  \rm Subtract  \: x  \: from  \: both \:  sides: \\  \rm \longrightarrow x - y - x = 5 - x \\ \\   \rm \longrightarrow -y = 5 - x \\  \\  \rm Multiply \:  both  \: sides  \: by  \: -1: \\  \rm \longrightarrow  - y \times ( - 1) = (5 - x) \times ( - 1) \\  \\  \rm \longrightarrow y = x - 5

Convert the rate 1000 ounces per 2 hours to cups per minutes?
Andrews [41]
125 cups in 120 minutes  (because 1000 oz/8 = 125 cups and  2 hrs is 120 minutes)

\frac{125}{120} = \frac{n}{1}

now reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 5 = (optional)
\frac{25}{24} =  \frac{n}{1}
So 24n = 25  Divide both sides by 24
n= 1  1/24 cups per minute

What is the answer to this?
Yanka [14]
DEF= 6 ft^2

A= 1/2*b*h

Plug in what you know.

6= 1/2*4*h

Multiply like terms. 

6=2*h

Divide 2 on both sides. 

3=h

If the base of ABC= 12

12/4=3

3*3=9

A= 1/2*b*h
A= 1/2*12*9
A= 1/2*84
A= 42

The area of ABC is 42 ft^2

I hope this helps!
