There is a $40 fee to rent a chain saw, plus $9 per day. Let x represent the number of days the saw is rented and y represent

the charge to the user in dollars. If the total charge is $211, for how many days is the saw rented?

Answer:

The saw was rented for 19 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

$40 fee for rentals plus $9 per day

Let x represent the number of days the saw is rented

y represent the charge to the user in dollars.

40 + 9x = y <em>(equation from the question)</em>

If total charge = $211

40 + 9x = 211

9x = 211 -40 <em>(grouping like terms)</em>

9x = 171<em> (Making x the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by 9)</em>

x = 19

Given f(x) = 2x + 1, find the range value if the domain value is 1.75.

MAXImum [283]

Given:

The function is

$f(x)=2x+1$

To find:

The range value if the domain value is 1.75.

Solution:

Domain is the set of input values and range is the set of output values.

Here, range value if the domain value is 1.75. It means the value of function f(x) at x=1.75.

Substitute x=1.75 in the given function.

$f(1.75)=2(1.75)+1$

$f(1.75)=3.5+1$

$f(1.75)=4.5$

Therefore, the required range value is 4.5.

Complete the identity.<br> 1) sec^4 x + sec^2 x tan^2 x - 2 tan^4 x = ?

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Question like this are better answered if there are list of options; However, I'll simplify as far as the expression can be simplified</em>

Given

$sec^4 x + sec^2 x tan^2 x - 2 tan^4 x$

Required

Simplify

$(sec^2 x)^2 + sec^2 x tan^2 x - 2 (tan^2 x)^2$

Represent $sec^2x$ with a

Represent $tan^2x$ with b

The expression becomes

$a^2 + ab- 2 b^2$

Factorize

$a^2 + 2ab -ab- 2 b^2$

$a(a + 2b) -b(a+ 2 b)$

$(a -b) (a+ 2 b)$

Recall that

$a = sec^2x$

$b = tan^2x$

The expression $(a -b) (a+ 2 b)$ becomes

$(sec^2x -tan^2x) (sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x)$

..............................................................................................................................

In trigonometry

$sec^2x =1 +tan^2x$

Subtract $tan^2x$ from both sides

$sec^2x - tan^2x =1 +tan^2x - tan^2x$

$sec^2x - tan^2x =1$

..............................................................................................................................

Substitute 1 for $sec^2x - tan^2x$ in $(sec^2x -tan^2x) (sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x)$

$(1) (sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x)$

Open Bracket

$sec^2x+ 2 tan^2x$ ------------------This is an equivalence

$(secx)^2+ 2 (tanx)^2$

Solving further;

................................................................................................................................

In trigonometry

$secx = \frac{1}{cosx}$

$tanx = \frac{sinx}{cosx}$

Substitute the expressions for secx and tanx

................................................................................................................................

$(secx)^2+ 2 (tanx)^2$ becomes

$(\frac{1}{cosx})^2+ 2 (\frac{sinx}{cosx})^2$

Open bracket

$\frac{1}{cos^2x}+ 2 (\frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x})$

$\frac{1}{cos^2x}+ \frac{2sin^2x}{cos^2x}$

Add Fraction

$\frac{1 + 2sin^2x}{cos^2x}$ ------------------------ This is another equivalence

................................................................................................................................

In trigonometry

$sin^2x + cos^2x= 1$

Make $sin^2x$ the subject of formula

$sin^2x= 1 - cos^2x$

................................................................................................................................

Substitute the expressions for $1 - cos^2x$ for $sin^2x$

$\frac{1 + 2(1 - cos^2x)}{cos^2x}$

Open bracket

$\frac{1 + 2 - 2cos^2x}{cos^2x}$

$\frac{3 - 2cos^2x}{cos^2x}$ ---------------------- This is another equivalence

Answer:

18ft

Step-by-step explanation:

just add all the sides. since it’s a rectangle, you there is 2 sides that’s 3ft long and that are 6ft long. so you would do 3+3+6+6

Substatution and elimination

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Well using elimination is easy because they basically did it for you.
4x-5y=-6
2x+5y=12
The postive 5y and negative 5y cancel out because -5y plus 5y is zero.
so you are left with
4x=-6
2x=12
Add these together
6x=18
divide both sides by 6 and Solve to find your x
x=3
Now we have to eliminate x to find y.
we multiply the second equation by -2 so it can cancel out so
(2x+5y=12)-2
-4x-10y=24
Add the equations together
4x-5y=-6
-4x-10y=24
You are left with -15y = 30
Solve for y
y = -2
So your final answer for the elimination would be
(3,-2)
