Answer: There are 45 handshakes will occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people in a room = 10

We need to find the number of handshakes that would occur.

Number  of hands in each handshake require = 2

We will apply "Combination":

So, number of possible handshakes would be

^{10}C_2=45

Hence, there are 45 handshakes will occur.

1. Derive the half-angle formulas from the double
lilavasa [31]

1) cos (θ / 2) = √[(1 + cos θ) / 2], sin (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / 2], tan (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / (1 + cos θ)]

2) (x, y) → (r · cos θ, r · sin θ), where r = √(x² + y²).

3) The point (x, y) = (2, 3) is equivalent to the point (r, θ) = (√13, 56.309°). The point (r, θ) = (4, 30°) is equivalent to the point (x, y) = (2√3, 2).

4) The <em>linear</em> function y = 5 · x - 8 is equivalent to the function r = - 8 / (sin θ - 5 · cos θ).

<h3>How to apply trigonometry on deriving formulas and transforming points</h3>

1) The following <em>trigonometric</em> formulae are used to derive the <em>half-angle</em> formulas:

sin² θ / 2 + cos² θ / 2 = 1                      (1)

cos θ = cos² (θ / 2) - sin² (θ / 2)           (2)

First, we derive the formula for the sine of a <em>half</em> angle:

cos θ = 2 · cos² (θ / 2) - 1

cos² (θ / 2) = (1 + cos θ) / 2

cos (θ / 2) = √[(1 + cos θ) / 2]

Second, we derive the formula for the cosine of a <em>half</em> angle:

cos θ = 1 - 2 · sin² (θ / 2)

2 · sin² (θ / 2) = 1 - cos θ

sin² (θ / 2) = (1 - cos θ) / 2

sin (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / 2]

Third, we derive the formula for the tangent of a <em>half</em> angle:

tan (θ / 2) = sin (θ / 2) / cos (θ / 2)

tan (θ / 2) = √[(1 - cos θ) / (1 + cos θ)]

2) The formulae for the conversion of coordinates in <em>rectangular</em> form to <em>polar</em> form are obtained by <em>trigonometric</em> functions:

(x, y) → (r · cos θ, r · sin θ), where r = √(x² + y²).

3) Let be the point (x, y) = (2, 3), the coordinates in <em>polar</em> form are:

r = √(2² + 3²)

r = √13

θ = atan(3 / 2)

θ ≈ 56.309°

The point (x, y) = (2, 3) is equivalent to the point (r, θ) = (√13, 56.309°).

Let be the point (r, θ) = (4, 30°), the coordinates in <em>rectangular</em> form are:

(x, y) = (4 · cos 30°, 4 · sin 30°)

(x, y) = (2√3, 2)

The point (r, θ) = (4, 30°) is equivalent to the point (x, y) = (2√3, 2).

4) Let be the <em>linear</em> function y = 5 · x - 8, we proceed to use the following <em>substitution</em> formulas: x = r · cos θ, y = r · sin θ

r · sin θ = 5 · r · cos θ - 8

r · sin θ - 5 · r · cos θ = - 8

r · (sin θ - 5 · cos θ) = - 8

r = - 8 / (sin θ - 5 · cos θ)

The <em>linear</em> function y = 5 · x - 8 is equivalent to the function r = - 8 / (sin θ - 5 · cos θ).

7x² + 6x - 1<br> Algebra 3|factoring
GaryK [48]

Answer:

(7 x - 1) (x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

7 x^2 + 6 x - 1

Factor the quadratic 7 x^2 + 6 x - 1. The coefficient of x^2 is 7 and the constant term is -1. The product of 7 and -1 is -7. The factors of -7 which sum to 6 are -1 and 7. So 7 x^2 + 6 x - 1 = 7 x^2 + 7 x - x - 1 = (7 x - 1) + x (7 x - 1):

(7 x - 1) + x (7 x - 1)

Factor 7 x - 1 from (7 x - 1) + x (7 x - 1):

Answer: (7 x - 1) (x + 1)

A RSS Clothing manufacturer makes two types of jogging pants, design A and design B. The design A jogging pants sells to the ret
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

  120 of design B

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit per dollar cost for design A is (2500/1750 -1) ≈ 0.43. For design B, it is (2100/1200 -1) ≈ 0.75. Design B is more profitable and less expensive to make, so its production should be maximized.

For maximum profit, 120 jogging pants of design B should be made each week.

_____

The budget of 150,000 would allow 150,000/1,200 = 125 pants of design B to be made. The production limit of 120 pants does not use the entire budget.
