Number of books that can fit on the shelf = Width of bookshelf/ width of average book = 72 x $\frac{4}{3}$ = 96 books

I hope this answer helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Prove the identity.<br> tan(x − y) + tan(z − x) + tan(y − z) = tan(x − y) tan(z − x) tan(y − z)

Viktor [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is known as the triple tangent identity. Start with the fact that the three angles add up to 0.

(x − y) + (z − x) + (y − z) = 0

Subtract two terms to the other side and take the tangent:

x − y = -((z − x) + (y − z))

tan(x − y) = tan(-((z − x) + (y − z)))

Use reflection property:

tan(x − y) = -tan((z − x) + (y − z))

Now use angle sum identity:

tan(x − y) = -[tan(z − x) + tan(y − z)] / [1 − tan(z − x) tan(y − z)]

tan(x − y) = [tan(z − x) + tan(y − z)] / [tan(z − x) tan(y − z) − 1]

tan(x − y) [tan(z − x) tan(y − z) − 1] = tan(z − x) + tan(y − z)

tan(x − y) tan(z − x) tan(y − z) − tan(x − y) = tan(z − x) + tan(y − z)

tan(x − y) tan(z − x) tan(y − z) = tan(x − y) + tan(z − x) + tan(y − z)

What is the height of the building pictured below if its shadow is 100 ft. long?

Evgen [1.6K]

Yeah.. baby, do the SOH CAH TOA with the hula hoop

$\bf 
sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
\qquad \qquad 
% cosine
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\\ \quad \\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}
$

so.. hmmm we have in the picture, an angle, and two sides,
actually, is the "adjacent" side, and the "opposite"

so.. which of those ratios give us only
the angle
the adjacent side
the opposite side?

ahhha!, is Ms tangent
so $\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\implies tan(42^o)=\cfrac{h}{100}$

solve for "h"

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

D. 54,900

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the salary of teachers in a particular school district is normally distributed with a mean of $50,000 and a standard deviation of $2,500.

To solve our given problem, we need to find the sample score using z-score formula and normal distribution table.

First of all, we will find z-score corresponding to probability $0.975(1-0.025)$ using normal distribution table.

From normal distribution table, we get z-score corresponding is $1.96$ .

Now, we will use z-score formula to find sample score as:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$ , where,

$z$ = Z-score,

$z$ = Sample score,

$\mu$ = Mean,

$\sigma$ = Standard deviation

$1.96=\frac{x-50,000}{2,500}$

$1.96*2,500=\frac{x-50,000}{2,500}*2,500$

$4900=x-50,000$

$4900+50,000=x-50,000+50,000$

$54900=x$

Therefore, the salary of $54900 divides the teachers into one group that gets a raise and one that doesn't.
