Answer:

The number of strawberry baskets sold was 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of strawberry baskets sold

y ---> the number of raspberries baskets sold

we know that

In one morning, Katya sells 96 baskets for $644

so

x+y=96 ----> equation A

4x+9y=644 ---> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (44.52)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of strawberry baskets sold was 44 and the number of raspberries baskets sold was 52

Recall the angle sum identity for cosine:

cos(<em>x</em> + <em>y</em>) = cos(<em>x</em>) cos(<em>y</em>) - sin(<em>x</em>) sin(<em>y</em>)

cos(<em>x</em> - <em>y</em>) = cos(<em>x</em>) cos(<em>y</em>) + sin(<em>x</em>) sin(<em>y</em>)

==>   sin(<em>x</em>) sin(<em>y</em>) = 1/2 (cos(<em>x</em> - <em>y</em>) - cos(<em>x</em> + <em>y</em>))

Then rewrite the equation as

sin(4<em>x</em>) sin(5<em>x</em>) + sin(4<em>x</em>) sin(3<em>x</em>) - sin(2<em>x</em>) sin(<em>x</em>) = 0

1/2 (cos(-<em>x</em>) - cos(9<em>x</em>)) + 1/2 (cos(<em>x</em>) - cos(7<em>x</em>)) - 1/2 (cos(<em>x</em>) - cos(3<em>x</em>)) = 0

1/2 (cos(9<em>x</em>) - cos(<em>x</em>)) + 1/2 (cos(7<em>x</em>) - cos(3<em>x</em>)) = 0

sin(5<em>x</em>) sin(-4<em>x</em>) + sin(5<em>x</em>) sin(-2<em>x</em>) = 0

-sin(5<em>x</em>) (sin(4<em>x</em>) + sin(2<em>x</em>)) = 0

sin(5<em>x</em>) (sin(4<em>x</em>) + sin(2<em>x</em>)) = 0

Recall the double angle identity for sine:

sin(2<em>x</em>) = 2 sin(<em>x</em>) cos(<em>x</em>)

Rewrite the equation again as

sin(5<em>x</em>) (2 sin(2<em>x</em>) cos(2<em>x</em>) + sin(2<em>x</em>)) = 0

sin(5<em>x</em>) sin(2<em>x</em>) (2 cos(2<em>x</em>) + 1) = 0

sin(5<em>x</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   sin(2<em>x</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   2 cos(2<em>x</em>) + 1 = 0

sin(5<em>x</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   sin(2<em>x</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   cos(2<em>x</em>) = -1/2

sin(5<em>x</em>) = 0   ==>   5<em>x</em> = arcsin(0) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   5<em>x</em> = arcsin(0) + <em>π</em> + 2<em>nπ</em>

… … … … …   ==>   5<em>x</em> = 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   5<em>x</em> = (2<em>n</em> + 1)<em>π</em>

… … … … …   ==>   <em>x</em> = 2<em>nπ</em>/5   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = (2<em>n</em> + 1)<em>π</em>/5

sin(2<em>x</em>) = 0   ==>   2<em>x</em> = arcsin(0) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   2<em>x</em> = arcsin(0) + <em>π</em> + 2<em>nπ</em>

… … … … …   ==>   2<em>x</em> = 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   2<em>x</em> = (2<em>n</em> + 1)<em>π</em>

… … … … …   ==>   <em>x</em> = <em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = (2<em>n</em> + 1)<em>π</em>/2

cos(2<em>x</em>) = -1/2   ==>   2<em>x</em> = arccos(-1/2) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   2<em>x</em> = -arccos(-1/2) + 2<em>nπ</em>

… … … … … …    ==>   2<em>x</em> = 2<em>π</em>/3 + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   2<em>x</em> = -2<em>π</em>/3 + 2<em>nπ</em>

… … … … … …    ==>   <em>x</em> = <em>π</em>/3 + <em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = -<em>π</em>/3 + <em>nπ</em>

∠Q and ∠R are complementary. If m∠Q = 33.8°, what is m∠R ? m∠R = 146.2° m∠R = 33.8° m∠R = 123.8° m∠R = 56.2°
Brrunno [24]

Complementary angles add together to equal 90 degrees.

R = 90 - 33.8

R = 56.2 degrees.
