First, assign a variable that you're looking for.

Let x = the larger number
Then x - 1 = the smaller number

The sum of x and x - 2 will equal to 226.

x + x - 1 = 226
2x - 1 = 226
2x = 228
x = 114

So, the smaller number is 112 and the larger number is 114.

What is 93 divided by 7
igomit [66]
7 goes into 9, that's 1.
Remaining 2.

Move the 2 close to 3, you have 23.

7 into the 23, that's 3 times. 3 times 7 is 21.
So you are left with 2.

The answer is 13 remainder 2.

Find sin (A-B) if sin A = 4/5 with A between 90 and 180 and if cos B = 3/5 with B between 0 and 90
quester [9]

Answer:

sin(A-B) = 24/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The trig identity for the differnce of angles tells you ...

sin(A -B) = sin(A)cos(B) -sin(B)cos(A)

We are given that sin(A) = 4/5 in quadrant II, so cos(A) = -√(1-(4/5)^2) = -3/5.

And we are given that cos(B) = 3/5 in quadrant I, so sin(B) = 4/5.

Then ...

sin(A-B) = (4/5)(3/5) -(4/5)(-3/5) = 12/25 + 12/25 = 24/25

The desired sine is 24/25.
