Emily has 140 books. If Frank were to triple the number of books that he now owns, he would still have fewer than Emily has.
aniked [119]
B * 3 < 140
B being the number of books Frank owns. Because tripling the amount of books he owns is still less than the amount of book Emily owns, b*3 has to be less than 140

Please help me <br><br>If 180°&lt;α&lt;270°, cos⁡ α=−8/17, what is sin -α?
rewona [7]

Starting from the fundamental trigonometric equation, we have

\cos^2(\alpha)+\sin^2(\alpha)=1 \iff \sin(\alpha)=\pm\sqrt{1-\cos^2(\alpha)}

Since 180, we know that the angle lies in the third quadrant, where both sine and cosine are negative. So, in this specific case, we have

\sin(\alpha)=-\sqrt{1-\cos^2(\alpha)}

Plugging the numbers, we have

\sin(\alpha)=-\sqrt{1-\dfrac{64}{289}}=-\sqrt{\dfrac{225}{289}}=-\dfrac{15}{17}

Now, just recall that

\sin(-\alpha)=-\sin(\alpha)

to deduce

\sin(-\alpha)=-\sin(\alpha)=-\left(-\dfrac{15}{17}\right)=\dfrac{15}{17}
