Answer:

There is no error.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 5 equals 15. Good. Now, 3+3+3+3+3 also equals 15. Meaning, that both equations equal the same number, and that the equation is true.

Evaluate the following. (iii) sin 30° + tan 40° - cosec 60° / cot 45° + cos 60° - sec 30°

bearhunter [10]

Sin 30 = 1/2

tan 45 = 1

Cosec 60 = 2 / √3 = 2√3 / 3

cot 45 = 1

Cos 60 = 1/2

sec 30 = 2 / √3 = 2√3 / 3

_______________________________

[ 1/2 + 1 - 2√3/3 ] ÷ [ 1 + 1/2 - 2√3/3 ] = 1

The face and denominator of the fraction are exactly the same thus the answer is 1 .

Vince has a rectangular rug in his room with an area of 10 ft the length of the rug is 18 inches longer than the width what coul

aev [14]

The length of the rug is 4 ft.

The width of the rug is 2.5 ft.

Explanation:

The area of the rug is 10 ft.

The length of the rug be l.

Let us convert the inches to feet.

Thus, $18 inches = 1.5 ft$

Thus, the length of the rug is $l=1.5+w$

Let the width of the rug be w.

Substituting these values in the formula of area of the rectangle, we get,

$A=length\times width$

$10=(1.5+w)(w)\\10=1.5w+w^2\\w^2+1.5w-10=0$

Solving the expression using the quadratic formula,

$w=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Substituting the values, we have,

$$w=\frac{-15 \pm \sqrt{15^{2}-4 \cdot 10(-100)}}{2 \cdot 10}\\$

$w=\frac{-15 \pm \sqrt{4225}}{20}$

$w=\frac{-15 \pm 65}{2 0}$

Thus,

$w=\frac{-15 + 65}{2 0}\\w=\frac{50}{20} \\w=2.5$ and $w=\frac{-15 - 65}{2 0}\\w=\frac{-80}{20} \\w=-4$

Since, the value of w cannot be negative, the value of w is 2.5ft

Thus, the width of the rug is 2.5ft

Substituting $w=2.5$ in $l=1.5+w$ , we get,

$l=1.5+2.5\\l=4$

Thus, the length of the rug is 4 ft.

How much money has to be invested at 2.3% interest compounded continuously to have $41,000 after 17 years?

Llana [10]

For this, we have to calculate how much money has to be invested at 2.3% interest compounded continuously to achieve $41,000 after 17 years

Formula: A= P * ( 1+r)^t
A= $41,000
r=0.023
t= 17
41,000= P * (1+0.023)^17
41,000= P * (1.023)^17
41,000= P * 1.4719
P= 41,000 : 1.4719
P= $27,731.59
Therefore, the answer is C. $27,731.59
I checked by doing the opposite, and I got $41,000.01, which is the closest to the question
