Answer:

first number= 19/5

second number= 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

first number= a

second number= b

a+3b=5   equation 1

b+2a=8  equation 2

using equation 2 we have

b=8-2a

using equation 1 we have

a+3(8-2a)=5  

a+24-6a=5

24-5=6a-a

19=5a

a=19/5 = first number

so using b=8-2a

we have

b=8-2(19/5)

b=8-(38/5)

b=2/5 = second number

Verify csc^2t-cos t sect= cot^2 t
Ymorist [56]

Rewriting the left hand side,

csc²t - cost sec t

= (1/sin²t)-(cost)(1/cost)

= 1/sin²t - 1

= 1/sin²t - sin²t/sin²t

= (1-sin²t)/sin²t

= cos²t/sin²t

= cot²t
