Answer:

Profit % = 111.1 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of glove = £4

Sales price of glove and skirt = £48

100% profits on the cost of the glove

20% profit on the total cost

Profit on the total cost = 20% = 0.20

Total cost + 0.20 total cost = Sale value

1.20 * total cost = 48

Total cost = 48 / 1.20

Total cost = 40

Cost of the skirt = Total cost - cost of the gloves

Cost of the skirt = 40 - 4

= 36

Price of the skirt = total value - price of the gloves

Total value = £48

100% of £4 = 100/100 * £4

= £4

Profits + cost of glove = $8

Amount remaining = £48 - £8

= £40

Profit percentage on the skirt = price of the skirt / cost of the skirt

= 40 / 36 * 100

= 1.1111 * 100

Profit % = 111.1 %

Solve using algebraic equation: <br> 5sin2x=3cosx<br><br> (No exponents)
DaniilM [7]
5\sin2x=3\cos x\iff10\sin x\cos x=3\cos x

by the double angle identity for sine. Move everything to one side and factor out the cosine term.

10\sin x\cos x=3\cos x\iff10\sin x\cos x-3\cos x=\cos x(10\sin x-3)=0

Now the zero product property tells us that there are two cases where this is true,

\begin{cases}\cos x=0\\10\sin x-3=0\end{cases}

In the first equation, cosine becomes zero whenever its argument is an odd integer multiple of \dfrac\pi2, so x=\dfrac{(2n+1)\pi}2 where n[/tex ]is any integer.\\Meanwhile,\\[tex]10\sin x-3=0\implies\sin x=\dfrac3{10}

which occurs twice in the interval [0,2\pi) for x=\arcsin\dfrac3{10} and x=\pi-\arcsin\dfrac3{10}. More generally, if you think of x as a point on the unit circle, this occurs whenever x also completes a full revolution about the origin. This means for any integer n, the general solution in this case would be x=\arcsin\dfrac3{10}+2n\pi and x=\pi-\arcsin\dfrac3{10}+2n\pi.

What is the area of this figure?
s2008m [1.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

it clearly consists of 2 rectangles and 1 triangle (as you tried correctly to point out by drawing the separating lines).

we only need to calculate all 3 areas and add them up for the total.

the area of a rectangle is

length × width

so, in our 2 cases we have

6 × 2 = 12 km²

5 × (3 + 2 + 3) = 5×8 = 40 km²

the area of a triangle is

baseline × height / 2

in case of a right-angled triangle the 2 sides enclosing the 90° angle can be used as baseline and height.

so, in our case

6 × (5 + 2 + (3 + 2 + 3 - 2)) / 2 = 6×(7 + 6)/2 = 3×13 = 39 km²

in total, the whole area is

12 + 40 + 39 = 91 km²

The hypotenuse of a right triangle measures 16 cm and one of its legs measures 11 cm.
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

11.6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

11^2+b^2=16^2

121+b^2=256

b^2=135

b=11.6
