Answer:  see proof below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given: A + B + C = π              → A + B = π - C

                                              → B + C = π - A

                                              → C + A = π - B

                                              → C = π - (B +  C)

Use Sum to Product Identity:  cos A + cos B = 2 cos [(A + B)/2] · cos [(A - B)/2]

Use the Sum/Difference Identity: cos (A - B) = cos A · cos B + sin A · sin B

Use the Double Angle Identity: sin 2A = 2 sin A · cos A

Use the Cofunction Identity: cos (π/2 - A) = sin A

<u>Proof LHS → Middle:</u>

\text{LHS:}\qquad \qquad \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A}{2}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{B}{2}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

\text{Sum to Product:}\qquad 2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\frac{A}{2}+\frac{B}{2}}{2}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\frac{A}{2}-\frac{B}{2}}{2}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

\text{Given:}\qquad \quad =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -(A+B)}{2}\bigg)

\text{Sum/Difference:}\quad  =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\bigg)

\text{Double Angle:}\quad  =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\sin \bigg(\dfrac{2(A+B)}{2(2)}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad  \qquad =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)

\text{Factor:}\quad  =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\bigg[ \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\bigg]

\text{Cofunction:}\quad  =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\bigg[ \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi}{2}-\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\bigg]\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{4}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{2\pi-(A+B)}{4}\bigg)\bigg]

\text{Sum to Product:}\ 2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\bigg[2 \cos \bigg(\dfrac{2\pi-2B}{2\cdot 4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{2A-2\pi}{2\cdot 4}\bigg)\bigg]\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =4\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi-B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -A}{4}\bigg)

\text{Given:}\qquad \qquad 4\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -C}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi-B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -A}{4}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =4\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -A}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi-B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -C}{4}\bigg)

LHS = Middle \checkmark

<u>Proof Middle → RHS:</u>

\text{Middle:}\qquad 4\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -A}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi-B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -C}{4}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Given:}\qquad \qquad 4\cos \bigg(\dfrac{B+C}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{C+A}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad =4\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{B+C}{4}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{C+A}{4}\bigg)

Middle = RHS \checkmark

Emily tried solving a two step equation for the variable. Interpret whether she made a mistake or not. If she did, describe what
Daniel [21]
-1 = z/3 - 7

Emily's Work:

-1 = z/3 - 7

-1(3)=z/3(3)-7

-3 = z - 7 

-3 -7 = z - 7 

z = -10

Right away without having to start at the beginning, I see that she has made a mistake at the 4th-5th line of work.


Instead of adding 7 to both sides, she subtracts it and still leaves it in and doesn't fully finish the equation, as it would really be z-7 = -10

In order to solve it, follow these steps:

Rewrite the initial equation as follows:

x/3 - 7 = -1 

Multiply both sides by 3
x/3(3)-7(3)=-1(3)

x - 21 = -3

Add 21 to both sides

x = 18

$65 dress pants 20% discount
jeka57 [31]
20% of 65 = 65 * 1/5, which is 13. so 20% of 65 is $13. so a discount of 20% = 65-13 which is $52
