Using the unit circle, you can visualise the secant as follows:
- Draw the vertical line passing trough (1,0)
- Extend the radius until it meets this line at point P
- The length of OP is the secant of your angle.
Since -90 means that the radius points downwards, it means that the radius is vertical as well, and thus it never meets the vertical line through (1,0).
Thus, the secant is not defined at -90.
In fact, if we switch back to the function notation, we can confirm this claim, since we have
which is undefined.
To solve this problem, we must set up a system of equations. In this case, let's let Maggie's age be represented by the variable m and her brother's age be represented by the variable b. We are told that the sum of their ages is 24, which gives us our first equation: m + b = 24. We can construct our next equation from the first sentence of given information: b = 2m - 3. This makes our system of equations:
m + b = 24
b = 2m - 3
To solve, we are going to substitute the value for b in terms of m given by the second equation into the first equation for the variable b.
m + b = 24
m + 2m - 3 = 24
To simplify, we must first combine the variable terms on the left side of the equation using addition.
3m - 3 = 24
Next, we should add 3 to both sides of the equation to get the variable term alone on the left side of the equation.
3m = 27
Finally, we should divide both sides by 3 in order to get the variable m alone.
m = 9
Therefore, Maggie is 9 years old (using the first equation and substituting in this value you can find that her brother is 15 years old).

Let c represent the weight of cashews and p the weight of pecans.
Then c + 10 = total weight of the nut mixture.
An equation for the value of the mixture follows:
$1.50(10 lb) + $0.75c = (c+10)($1.00)
Solve this equation for c: 15 + .75c = c + 10. Subtract .75c from both sides:
15 = 1c - 0.75c + 10. Then 5=0.25c, and c = 5/0.25, or 20.
Need 20 lb of cashews.
Check: the pecans weigh 10 lb and are worth $1.50 per lb, so the total value of the pecans is $15. The total value of the cashews is (20 lb)($0.75/lb), or $15. Does (20 lb + 10 lb)($1/lb) = $15 + $15? Yes. So c= 20 lb is correct.
