Let the number of knife be x.
Knife = x
Spoon = 2x
forks = 2x

Total = 30
x + 2x + 2x = 30
5x = 30 
x = 6

Knife = x = 6
forks = 2x = 12
Spoon = 2x = 12

Answer: There are 12 forks.

S = f   (where s = number of  spoons and f = number forks)
s = 2k ( k = number of knives)
s + f + k = 30
2s + k = 30 ( because  s = f)
4k + k = 30
k = 6 
Number of forks (f) =  twice number of  knives = 2*6 = 12 Answer

Plzzz hurry up and help me if A+B=45<br>prove that <br>(1+tanA)(1+tanB)=2​
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If A +B = 45° then tan(A+B) = tan45° = 1

Expanding (1 + tanA)(1 + tanB)

= 1 + tanA + tanB + tanAtanB → (1)

Using the Addition formula for tan(A + B)

tan(A+B) = \frac{tanA+tanB}{1-tanAtanB} = 1 ← from above

Hence

tanA + tanB = 1 - tanAtanB ( add tanAtanB to both sides )

tanA + tanB + tanAtanB = 1 ( add 1 to both sides )

1 + tanA + tanB + tanAtanB = 2

Then from (1)

(1 + tanA)(1 + tanB) = 2 ⇒ proven
