Answer: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

cotangent equals cos/sin. So the sin is 3. And cosecant is 1/sin. So that means its 1/3.

Answer:

The cosecant is 5/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cotangent is equal to adjacent/opposite while cosecant is hypotenuse/opposite.

Based from the given, adjacent = 4 and opposite = 3. We need to find the hypotenuse. Using the Pythagorean theorem c= square root of a²+ b², where c is the hypotenuse.

c= √(4²+3²)

c = √(16+9)

c= √25

c=5 so our hypotenuse is 5.

cosecant is equal to hypotenuse/opposite so we have 5/3.

the form is y=mx+b, and they already gave you b so you just need to find m(slope) by rise over run

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! It's really simple once you get the hang of it, I'll show you!

Example:

$\frac{1}{3} + \frac{3}{4}$

First, we have to remember that we can't add fractions with different denominators. So we have to look for the least common denominator, also known as the least common multiple.

In this case, the smallest number that both 3 and 4 make is <em>12.</em>

Now, we have to multiply both fractions by what it takes to get to twelve. 3 has to be multiplied by 4, and 4 by 3.

$( \frac{1}{3} )*4 = \frac{4}{12} \\\\$
