Answer:

  $319

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, sales tax is proportional to the amount of the sale, so if the sales tax is a factor of 22/16 times the original tax, then the sale amount must be 22/16 times the original item cost:

  (22/16)·$232 = $319

Solve the equation cot 2x + cot x =3
rusak2 [61]

tan2x*cotx - 3 = 0

We know that: tan2x = sin2x/cos2x and cotx = cosx/sinx

==> sin2x/cos2x *cosx/sinx = 3

Now we know that sin2x = 2sinx*cosx

==> 2sinxcosx/cos2x * cosx/sinx = 3

Reduce sinx:

==> 2cos^2 x/ cos2x = 3

Now we know that cos2x = 2cos^2 x-1

==> 2cos^2 x/(2cos^2 x -1) = 3

==> 2cos^2 x = 3(2cos^2 x -1)

==> 2cos^2 x = 6cos^2 x - 3

==> -4cos^2 x= -3

==> 4cos^2 x = 3

==> cos^2 x = 3/4

==> cosx = +-sqrt3/ 2

<span>==> x = pi/6, 5pi/6, 7pi/6, and 11pi/6</span>
