Answer:

The answer of the addition of 3/5, 5/8 and 15/32 is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 + 5/8 + 15/32

We find the LCm of the denominators, that is, 5, 8 and 32

LCM = 5*32 = 160

[(160/5 + 3) + (160/8 + 5) + (160/32 + 15)]/160

[(32+3) + (20+5) + (5+15)]/160

[35+25+20]/160

80/160 = 1/2

Sin theta+costheta/sintheta -costheta+sintheta-costheta/sintheta+costheta=2sec2/tan2 theta -1

$\dfrac{sin\theta + cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}+\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}=\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{tan^2\theta-1}$

From Left side:

$\dfrac{sin\theta + cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}\bigg(\dfrac{sin\theta+cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}\bigg)+\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta+cos\theta}\bigg(\dfrac{sin\theta-cos\theta}{sin\theta-cos\theta}\bigg)$

$\dfrac{sin^2\theta+2cos\thetasin\theta+cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}+\dfrac{sin^2\theta-2cos\thetasin\theta+cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}$

NOTE: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1

$\dfrac{1 + 2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}+\dfrac{1-2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}$

$\dfrac{1 + 2cos\theta sin\theta+1-2cos\theta sin\theta}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}$

$\dfrac{2}{sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta}$

$\dfrac{2}{\bigg(sin^2\theta-cos^2\theta\bigg)\bigg(\dfrac{cos^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}\bigg)}$

$\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{\dfrac{sin^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}-\dfrac{cos^2\theta}{cos^2\theta}}$

$\dfrac{2sec^2\theta}{tan^2\theta-1}$

Left side = Right side <em>so proof is complete</em>

Use completing the square to solve for x in the equation (x+7)(x-9) = 25.

balandron [24]

Answer:

x = 1 ±√89

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

(x+7)(x-9) = 25

Using distributive property:

x(x-9) + 7(x-9) = 25

x²- 9x + 7x - 63 -25 = 0

x²- 2x - 88 = 0

To complete squares we need to add and subtract 1, as follows:

x²- 2x - 88 +1 -1 = 0

x²- 2x +1 -88 -1 = 0 (this is a perfect square)

(x - 1)² - 89 = 0

Solving for x:

(x - 1)² = 89

x - 1 = ±√89

x = 1 ±√89
