Therefore the reminder is 3 when 5n is divided by 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Dividend = quotient × Divisor +Reminder

⇔ n = Q(n) × 7 + 2 [ let Q(n) is quotient]

multiplying by 5 both sides

5n = 5 Q(n) ×7 + 2×5

⇔5n = 5 Q(n) ×7 +10

⇔5n= 5 Q(n) ×7 +7 +3

⇔ 5n = (5Q(n) +1) × 7 +3

Therefore the reminder is 3 when 5n is divided by 7.

Midpoint formula = ( $\frac{x1,x2}{2}$ , $\frac{y1,y2}{2}$ )

1 + 3 / 2 = 2

5 + 9 / 2 = 7

A concession stand at a baseball game sells 3 apples for $2.00. How can you find the cost for 10 apples?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

You would do $2.00 ÷ 3 = $0.67
10 × $0.67 = $6.70

10 apples would cost $6.70

Question 16 (Essay Worth 7 points)<br><br> Verify the identity.<br><br> tan (x + π/2) = -cot x

Rus_ich [418]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that tan=sin/cos, so tan(x+π/2)=

$\frac{sin(x+pi/2)}{cos(x+pi/2)}$

Then, we know that sin(u+v)=sin(u)cos(v)+cos(u)sin(v),

so our equation is then

$\frac{sin(x)cos(\pi/2)+cos(x)sin(\pi/2)}{cos(x+\pi/2)} = \frac{cos(x)}{cos(x+\pi/2) }$

Then, cos(u+v)=cos(u)cos(v)-sin(u)sin(v), so our expression is then

$\frac{cos(x)}{cos(x)cos(\pi/2)-sin(x)sin(\pi/2)} = \frac{cos(x)}{-sin(x)} = -cot(x)$
