Answer:

\frac{5}{6} minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find unit rate of each.

<u>Jada</u>

2 scoop in 5 minutes

So,

1 scoop in 5/2 = 2.5 minutes

<u>Noah</u>

3 scoop in 5 minutes

So,

1 scoop in 5/3 = 1.25 minutes

These are the times. Time and rate are inverses of each other. So the rates of each is:

Jada = 1/2.5 = 0.4

Noah = 1/1.25 = 0.8

Working together, we add the rates and find the time:

(0.4+0.8)*t = 1

1.2t = 1

t = 1/1.2 = \frac{5}{6} minutes

So, they take \frac{5}{6} minutes to eat one scoop, working together

4 Tan A/1-Tan^4=Tan2A + Sin2A​
Eva8 [605]

tan(2<em>A</em>) + sin(2<em>A</em>) = sin(2<em>A</em>)/cos(2<em>A</em>) + sin(2<em>A</em>)

• rewrite tan = sin/cos

… = 1/cos(2<em>A</em>) (sin(2<em>A</em>) + sin(2<em>A</em>) cos(2<em>A</em>))

• expand the functions of 2<em>A</em> using the double angle identities

… = 2/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1) (sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) + sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) (cos²(<em>A</em>) - sin²(<em>A</em>)))

• factor out sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>)

… = 2 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>)/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1) (1 + cos²(<em>A</em>) - sin²(<em>A</em>))

• simplify the last factor using the Pythagorean identity, 1 - sin²(<em>A</em>) = cos²(<em>A</em>)

… = 2 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>)/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1) (2 cos²(<em>A</em>))

• rearrange terms in the product

… = 2 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) (2 cos²(<em>A</em>))/(2 cos²(<em>A</em>) - 1)

• combine the factors of 2 in the numerator to get 4, and divide through the rightmost product by cos²(<em>A</em>)

… = 4 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) / (2 - 1/cos²(<em>A</em>))

• rewrite cos = 1/sec, i.e. sec = 1/cos

… = 4 sin(<em>A</em>) cos(<em>A</em>) / (2 - sec²(<em>A</em>))

• divide through again by cos²(<em>A</em>)

… = (4 sin(<em>A</em>)/cos(<em>A</em>)) / (2/cos²(<em>A</em>) - sec²(<em>A</em>)/cos²(<em>A</em>))

• rewrite sin/cos = tan and 1/cos = sec

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / (2 sec²(<em>A</em>) - sec⁴(<em>A</em>))

• factor out sec²(<em>A</em>) in the denominator

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / (sec²(<em>A</em>) (2 - sec²(<em>A</em>)))

• rewrite using the Pythagorean identity, sec²(<em>A</em>) = 1 + tan²(<em>A</em>)

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / ((1 + tan²(<em>A</em>)) (2 - (1 + tan²(<em>A</em>))))

• simplify

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / ((1 + tan²(<em>A</em>)) (1 - tan²(<em>A</em>)))

• condense the denominator as the difference of squares

… = 4 tan(<em>A</em>) / (1 - tan⁴(<em>A</em>))

(Note that some of these steps are optional or can be done simultaneously)
