\sin \alpha = \frac{4}{5} \\ \cos \alpha  =  \sqrt{1-\sin^2 \alpha }= \sqrt{1- \frac{16}{25} }   = \sqrt{ \frac{9}{25} }= \frac{3}{5} \\    \\ \cos \beta = \frac{12}{13}  \\  \sin \beta  =  \sqrt{1-\cos^2  \beta }= \sqrt{1- \frac{144}{169} }   = \sqrt{ \frac{25}{169} }= \frac{5}{13}


\\  \\ \sin (\alpha- \beta ) =\sin \alpha \cos \beta -\cos \alpha \sin \beta = \frac{4}{5}\times \frac{12}{13}-   \frac{3}{5}\times \frac{5}{13} =  \frac{48}{65}- \frac{15}{65}=  \frac{33}{65}

Answer:
sin(α-β) = 33/65

. Laura and Alicia both exercise 5 days a week. Laura exercises for 30 minutes each day. Alicia exercises for 45 minutes each da
statuscvo [17]

Answer: 1 hour 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Laura and Alicia both exercise 5 days a week and that Laura exercises for 30 minutes each day. For the 5 days, she'll exercise for:

= 5 × 30 minutes

= 150 minutes

= 2 hours 30 minutes

Alicia exercises for 45 minutes each day. Fir the 5 days, she'll exercise for:

= 5 × 45 minutes

= 225 minutes

= 3 hours 45 minutes

We then calculate the difference in their exercise per week which will be:

= 3 hours 45 minutes - 2 hours 30 minutes

= 1 hour 15 minutes

Anyone know how to answer this? Help if u do please!

A- It will be smaller, because we're finding a part of a number, and it's no more than 100 percent.
B- It would be greater. It's more than 100 percent, which accounts for the whole value, and goes even more.
Hope this helps!

Need help solving algebraically!
alekssr [168]
We need to account for both x values on either side of the length, and width.
Thus, the length becomes 10 + x + x = 10 + 2x
and the width becomes 5 + x + x = 5 + 2x

For the second question, I'm assuming we don't account for the area that is covered by the garden.
Then we can say that the path is measured by: (5 + 2x)(10 + 2x) - 50, which is the area of the garden itself.

(5 + 2x)(10 + 2x) - 50 = 54

Expanding the brackets:
50 + 10x + 20x + 4x^{2} - 50 = 54
4x^{2} + 30x = 54
2x^{2} + 15x - 27 = 0
2x^{2} - 3x + 18x - 27 = 0
x(2x - 3) + 9(2x - 3) = 0

(x + 9)(2x - 3) = 0
x = -9, or x = 3/2

Since x > 0, then x ≠ -9
Thus, the only x-value we can take is x = 3/2
