$- 0.25z = - 1.25 \\ \Leftrightarrow \: z = \frac{ - 1.25}{ - 0.25} = \frac{ - \frac{5}{4} }{ - \frac{1}{4} } = 5$

[Pre-Calc] Please Help! I don’t know where to start. How do I do this?

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem A)

We have:

$\displaystyle \csc^2\theta \tan^2\theta -1=\tan^2\theta$

When in doubt, convert all reciprocal trig functions and tangent into terms of sine and cosine.

So, let cscθ = 1/sinθ and tanθ = sinθ/cosθ. Hence:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{1}{\sin^2\theta}\right)\left(\frac{\sin^2\theta}{\cos^2\theta}\right)-1=\tan^2\theta$

Cancel:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{\cos^2\theta}-1=\tan^2\theta$

Let 1/cosθ = secθ:

$\sec^2\theta -1=\tan^2\theta$

From the Pythagorean Identity, we know that tan²θ + 1 = sec²θ. Hence, sec²θ - 1 = tan²θ:

$\tan^2\theta =\tan^2\theta$

Problem B)

We have:

$\sin^3x=\sin x-\sin x \cos^2 x$

Factor out a sine:

$\sin x(\sin^2 x)=\sin x-\sin x\cos^2 x$

From the Pythagorean Identity, sin²θ + cos²θ = 1. Hence, sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ:

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

Distribute:

$\sin x- \sin x \cos^2 x=\sin x-\sin x\cos^2 x$

Problem C)

We have:

$\displaystyle \frac{\cos 2x+1}{\sin 2x}=\cot x$

Recall that cos2θ = cos²θ - sin²θ and that sin2θ = 2sinθcosθ. Hence:

$\displaystyle \frac{\cos^2 x-\sin^2 x+1}{2\sin x\cos x}=\cot x$

From the Pythagorean Identity, sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 so cos²θ = 1 - sin²θ:

$\displaystyle \frac{2\cos^2 x}{2\sin x\cos x}=\cot x$

Cancel:

$\displaystyle \frac{\cos x}{\sin x}=\cot x$

By definition:

$\cot x = \cot x$

In 4 minutes, a conveyor belt moves 800 pounds of recyclable aluminum from the delivery truck to a storage area. A smaller belt

kkurt [141]

Answer:

It takes 2 minutes 4 seconds to move the cans to storage area if both the belts are used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - In 4 minutes, a conveyor belt moves 800 pounds of recyclable

aluminum from the delivery truck to a storage area. A smaller belt

moves the same quantity of cans the same distance in 6 minutes.

To find - If both belts are used, find how long it takes to move the cans

to the storage area.

Proof -

Given that,

Larger belt take 4 minutes to transfer the aluminium from delivery truck to storage area.

⇒ Time taken by Larger belt = 4 min/ shifting

Also,

Smaller belt take 6 minutes to transfer the aluminium from delivery truck to storage area.

⇒ Time taken by Smaller belt = 6 min/ shifting

Now,

As we know that Time is inversely proportional to time, so

Rate of Larger Belt = $\frac{1}{4}$ shifting/min

Rate of Smaller Belt = $\frac{1}{6}$ shifting/min

Now,

Let us assume that , if both belts used then,

Total time taken = x min/shifting

Then, Rate = $\frac{1}{x}$ shifting/min

Now,

$\frac{1}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{x}$

⇒ $\frac{6 + 4}{24} = \frac{1}{x}$

⇒ $\frac{10}{24} = \frac{1}{x}$

⇒10x = 24

⇒x = $\frac{24}{10}$ = 2.4 minutes

∴ we get

It takes 2 minutes 4 seconds to move the cans to storage area if both the belts are used.
