By the Frobenius Coin Theorem, also known as the Postage Stamp Theorem or the Chicken McNugget Theorem, the maximum amount that cannot be represented as a sum of multiples of two relatively prime numbers a and b (numbers that have GCF of 1) is ab-a-b.  Plugging 7 and 20 in, our answer is 7*20-7-20, or 140-27, or 113.

Answer:

d = 10/72

Step-by-step explanation:

c and d vary inversely

c = k/d

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

d = 2/9 when c = 5

c = k/d

5 = k ÷ 2/9

5 = k × 9/2

5 = 9k/2

Cross product

5*2 = 9k

10 = 9k

k = 10/9

c = k/d

c = 10/9 ÷ d

c = 10/9 × 1/d

c = 10/9d

find d when c = 8

c = 10/9d

8 = 10/9d

Cross product

8*9d = 10

72d = 10

d = 10/72

(cos Ф -cos Ф)² + (cos Ф + cos Ф)²

Firstly: (cos Ф -cos Ф)² = 0² = 0

Secondly :(cos Ф + cos Ф)² = (2cos Ф)². = 4. (cos Ф)² = 4cos² Ф

Mind you when you raise a cosine (or sin or tan...) to the n power, the n power should affect the cosine only and NOT the angle Ф

Which properties of equality justify steps b and d?
7nadin3 [17]
<span>C. Subtraction Property of Equality; Multiplication Property of Equality

For the first one, you are subtracting 7 from both sides (step b), to help isolate the y

since you are both subtracting, and "both sides" (meaning there is a equal sign) it is <em>Subtraction Property of Equality.</em>

For the second one, you are multiplying 2 from both sides (step d), to help isolate the y

since you are multiplying, and "both sides" (meaning there is a equal sign), it is <em>Multiplication Property of Equality</em>


hope this helps</span>
