No, because it needs to equal 25, not 24.

Answer:

Yes, Luke's statement is correct and he could make more rectangles with 24 tiles than than Elaine's 10 tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Clearly, a tile is in the shape of a square.

Let 'a' be the side of a tile.

If we place two tiles side by side, we will get a rectangle whose length is '2a' and width is 'a'.

To make a single rectangle, the minimum number of tiles needed = 2.

So, Luke can make a maximum number of $\frac{24}{2}$ = 12 rectangles.

But, Elaine can make $\frac{10}{2}$ = 5 rectangles.

Hence, Luke's statement is correct and he could make more rectangles with 24 tiles than Elaine's 10 tiles.

Find all solutions of each equation on the interval 0 ≤ x < 2π.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$x = 0$ or $x = \pi$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

How are tangents and secants related to sines and cosines?

$\displaystyle \tan{x} = \frac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}$ .

$\displaystyle \sec{x} = \frac{1}{\cos{x}}$ .

Sticking to either cosine or sine might help simplify the calculation. By the Pythagorean Theorem, $\sin^{2}{x} = 1 - \cos^{2}{x}$ . Therefore, for the square of tangents,

$\displaystyle \tan^{2}{x} = \frac{\sin^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}} = \frac{1 - \cos^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}}$ .

This equation will thus become:

$\displaystyle \frac{1 - \cos^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}} \cdot \frac{1}{\cos^{2}{x}} + \frac{2}{\cos^{2}{x}} - \frac{1 - \cos^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}} = 2$ .

To simplify the calculations, replace all $\cos^{2}{x}$ with another variable. For example, let $u = \cos^{2}{x}$ . Keep in mind that $0 \le \cos^{2}{x} \le 1 \implies 0 \le u \le 1$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{1 - u}{u^{2}} + \frac{2}{u} - \frac{1 - u}{u} = 2$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{(1 - u) + u - u \cdot (1- u)}{u^{2}} = 2$ .

Solve this equation for $u$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{u^{2} + 1}{u^{2}} = 2$ .

$u^{2} + 1 = 2 u^{2}$ .

$u^{2} = 1$ .

Given that $0 \le u \le 1$ , $u = 1$ is the only possible solution.

$\cos^{2}{x} = 1$ ,

$x = k \pi$ , where $k\in \mathbb{Z}$ (i.e., $k$ is an integer.)

Given that $0 \le x < 2\pi$ ,

$0 \le k$ .

$k = 0$ or $k = 1$ . Accordingly,

$x = 0$ or $x = \pi$ .

One half Of a certain even integer plus One fifth Of The next consecutive even interger equals 48. Find The two intergers.

yaroslaw [1]

The integers are 68 and 70.

One half of 68 is 34.
One fifth of 70 is 14.
34 + 14 = 48 and 68 and 70 are consecutive even integers.
