Answer:

$-7.8*10^{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$3.2*10^{10} -1.1*10^{11}$

we know that

$3.2*10^{10}=0.32*10^{11}$

substitute

$0.32*10^{11} -1.1*10^{11}=-0.78*10^{11}=-7.8*10^{10}$

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

64 carnations and 16 roses.

Step-by-step explanation:

The events committee buys 80 flowers

The flowers are a combination of carnations and roses.

Each carnation costs $0.50 and each rose costs $2.50

The committee spends a total of $72

<u>Solution:</u>

<u />

Let there be (c) carnations and (r) roses.

So,

c + r = 80 flowers

and $0.50c + $2.50 = $72

This forms a simultaneous equation:

c + r = 80 ... (i)

0.5c + 2.5r = 72 ... (ii)

Multiplying equation (i) by 0.5 and equation (ii) by 1 gives;

0.5c + 0.5r = 40 ... (i)

0.5c + 2.5r = 72 ... (ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii) gives;

0c + 2r = 32

2r = 32

r = 32 ÷ 2 = 16

Therefore, there are 16 roses

and 80 - 16 = 64 carnations

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert all the secants and cosecants to cosine and sine, respectively. Recall that $csc(x)=1/sin(x)$ and $sec(x)=1/cos(x)$ .

Thus:

$\frac{sec(x)}{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{csc(x)cos^2(x)}$

$=\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)} -\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{1}{sin(x)}cos^2(x) }$

Let's do the first part first: (Recall how to divide fractions)

$\frac{\frac{1}{cos(x)} }{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos(x)} \cdot \frac{1}{cos(x)}=\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}$

For the second term:

$\frac{sin(x)}{\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)} } =\frac{sin(x)}{1} \cdot\frac{sin(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}$

So, all together: (same denominator; combine terms)

$\frac{1}{cos^2(x)}-\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{1-sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}$

Note the numerator; it can be derived from the Pythagorean Identity:

$sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1; cos^2(x)=1-sin^2(x)$

Thus, we can substitute the numerator:

$\frac{1-sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=\frac{cos^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}=1$

Everything simplifies to 1.

A square in the board below and a letter in the word ATTENTION is chosen at

kolezko [41]

Answer:

4 /15

Step-by-step explanation:

From the number cube :

Count of Numbers greater than 4 = 16

Sample space of number cube = 20

P(number greater than 4) = 16 / 20 = 4/5

Word : ATTENTION

Count of letters in attention = 9

Count of T's in attention = 3

P(choosing T) = 3 / 9 = 1/3

P(greater than 4, then T) = 4/5 * 1/3 = 4 /15
