Amelie's cat is 6 years older than her dog. The sum of their ages is 14 years. How old is Amelie's dog

C+d=14
c-6=d
then you will plug c+6 in the first equation and you will get:
c+c-6=14
then you get
2c=20
c=10, so the cat is ten years old
the cat is 6 years older than the dog, so the dog is 4 years old
hope that helps :)

Prove that sinxtanx=1/cosx - cosx

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to prove that

$\sin(x)\tan(x) = \dfrac{1}{\cos(x)} - \cos(x), \forall x \in\mathbb{R}$

Taking the RHS, note

$\dfrac{1}{\cos(x)} - \cos(x) = \dfrac{1}{\cos(x)} - \dfrac{\cos(x) \cos(x)}{\cos(x)} = \dfrac{1-\cos^2(x)}{\cos(x)}$

Remember that

$\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) =1 \implies 1- \cos^2(x) =\sin^2(x)$

Therefore,

$\dfrac{1-\cos^2(x)}{\cos(x)} = \dfrac{\sin^2(x)}{\cos(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}$

Once

$\dfrac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)} = \tan(x)$

Then,

$\dfrac{\sin(x)\sin(x)}{\cos(x)} = \sin(x)\tan(x)$

Hence, it is proved

Measuring the height of a tree is usually more difficult than measuring the diameter of the tree. Therefore, many researchers us

Answer:

(B) (0.396, 1.712)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given;

Confidence Interval = 0.95

Significance Level $= 1 - 0.95 = 0.05$

The confidence interval for regression coefficient beta (whereby in this case it is the coefficient of the diameter) is expressed by:

= $( Beta ^- \ t_{n-2}, \alpha/2 ( S.E \ of \ \^ \ \ ), Beta^+ \ t_{n-2}, \alpha/2 ( S.E \ of \ \^ \ \ ))$

From the regression coefficient, the estimated value of beta^ = 1.054

$= (1.054 - t_{29,0.025} *(0.322), 1.054 + t_{29,0.025}*(0.322))$

$t_{229,0.025} = 2.0452\\\\ = \mathbf{(0.396, 1.712)}$

In the diagram, which pair of angles are vertical angles?

dusya [7]

Angles 1 and 3, angles 2 and 4, angles 5 and 7, and angles 6 and 8. They are also congruent, because vertical angles are congruent.
