Answer:

A pair of jeans cost 40 dollars

A sweater costs 15 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = cost a of sweater

j = cost of a pair of jeans

4s +2j = 140

2s +3j = 150

I will use elimination to solve.  Multiply the second equation by -2

-2(2s +3j )= 150*-2

-4s -6j = -300

Add this equation to the first equation

-4s -6j = -300

4s +2j = 140

--------------------

    -4j = -160

Divide by -4

-4j/-4 = -160/-4

j = 40

A pair of jeans cost 40 dollars

Now we need to find the cost of the sweater

2s +3j = 150

2s +3(40) = 150

2s+120 = 150

Subtract 120 from each side

2s +120-120=150-120

2s = 30

Divide by 2

2s/2=30/2

s = 15

A sweater costs 15 dollars

Answer:

3.625h,217.5min,13050sec

Step-by-step explanation:

S=vt

t=S/v

t=435/120 (km) /(km/h) =3.625h

t= 3.625*60 min = 217.5 min

t=217.5*60sec = 13050 sec

Given tan θ = 2 and sin θ < 0. Find cos(θ +pi/4)
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

√10 / 10

Step-by-step explanation:

tan θ > 0 and sin θ < 0, so θ is in quadrant III.  That means cos θ < 0.

cos(θ + π/4)

Use angle sum formula.

cos θ cos(π/4) − sin θ sin(π/4)

½√2 cos θ − ½√2 sin θ

Factor.

½√2 cos θ (1 − tan θ)

½√2 cos θ (1 − 2)

-½√2 cos θ

Write in terms of secant.

-½√2 / sec θ

Use Pythagorean identity (remember that cos θ < 0).

-½√2 / -√(1 + tan²θ)

-½√2 / -√(1 + 2²)

½√2 / √5

√10 / 10
