(17.5)(x)=125

Divide each side by 17.5 leaving the equation as x=7.14

You have to go 8 days because
$8 \times 17.50 = 140$

Prove or disprove that (1)/(1-cot x) is the same as (sin x)/(sin x - cos x)

SIZIF [17.4K]

$\dfrac{1}{1-\cot x}=\dfrac{\sin x}{\sin x-\cos x}\\\\L_s=\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}}=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{\sin x}{\sin x}-\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}}=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{\sin x-\cos x}{\sin x}}=\dfrac{\sin x}{\sin x-\cos x}=R_s$

$\text{Used:}\\\\\cot x=\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}$

The sum of two numbers is 400. If the first number is decreased by 20% and the second number is decreased by 15%, then the sum w

Marianna [84]

Let x = the first number
Let y = the second number

So we can set up two equations:
x+y = 400
.8x + .85y = 400-68

Use substitution:
y = 400 - x
.8x + (.85)*(400-x) = 332
.8x + 340 -.85x = 332
8 = .05x
x = 160

So that makes y = 240

We want the decreased values so:

160*.8 = 128
240*.85 = 204

So the answers are 128 and 204

Please help the following questions

34kurt

Answer:

<em>Question 7. Option B,</em>

<em>Question 8. Option C</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Question 7.</em>

Let us create a proportionality, and solve for the value of s, through cross multiplication;

$3 / 12 = s / 15,\\3 * 15 = 12 * s,\\12 * s = 45,\\\\s = 3.75\\\\Conclusion - Option B$

<em>Question 8.</em>

We can solve this problem in a similar manner, through setting a proportionality and solving for the length of the shadow of the tree, which we can pose as x;

$5 / 6 = 25 / x,\\5 * x = 6 * 25,\\5x = 150,\\\\x = 30 ft\\\\Conclusion - Option C$

A family goes out to eat. The meal costs $44. The sales tax rate is 9%. They leave a 20% tip. How much did they spend?

REY [17]

Answer:

$56.76
