1/10 of 200 is 20
1/4 of 200 is 50
20+50=70
200-70=130 peanuts

\frac{1}{10} *200=20 \text{ almonds}\newline \newline \frac{1}{4} *200=50 \text{ cashews} \newline \newline 200-20-50=130 \text{ peanuts}

The area of a rectangle has decreased by 2%.
MissTica

Answer:

The other side was decreased to approximately .89 times its original size, meaning it was reduced by approximately 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the basic equation for the area of a rectangle:

l × w = a

And now express the changes described above as an equation, using "p" as the amount that the width is changed:

(l × 1.1) × (w × p) = a × .98

Now let's rearrange both of those equations to solve for a / l.  Starting with the first and easiest:

w = a/l

now the second one:

1.1l × wp = 0.98a

wp = 0.98a / 1.1l

1.1 wp / 0.98 = a/l

Now with both of those equalling a/l, we can equate them:

1.1 wp / 0.98 =  w

We can then divide both sides by w, eliminating it

1.1wp / 0.98w = w/w

1.1p / 0.98 = 1

And solve for p

1.1p = 0.98

p = 0.98 / 1.1

p ≈ 0.89

So the width is scaled by approximately 89%

We can double check that too.  Let's multiply that by the scaled length and see if we get the two percent decrease:

.89 × 1.1 = 0.979

That should be 0.98, and we're close enough.  That difference of 1/1000 is due to rounding the 0.98 / 1.1 to .89.  The actual result of that fraction is 0.89090909...  if we multiply that by 1.1, we get exactly .98.

(3cosx-4sinx) + (3sinx+4cosx) = 5
Ksenya-84 [330]
(3 cos x-4 sin x)+(3sin x+4 cos x)=5
(3cos x+4cos x)+(-4sin x+3 sin x)=5
7 cos x-sin x=5
7cos x=5+sin x
(7 cos x)²=(5+sinx)²
49 cos²x=25+10 sinx+sin²x
49(1-sin²x)=25+10 sinx+sin²x
49-49sin²x=25+10sinx+sin²x
50 sin² x+10sinx-24=0

Sin x=[-10⁺₋√(100+4800)]/100=(-10⁺₋70)/100
We have two possible solutions:
sinx =(-10-70)/100=-0.8
x=sin⁻¹ (-0.8)=-53.13º      (360º-53.13º=306.87)

sinx=(-10+70)/100=0.6
x=sin⁻¹ 0.6=36.87º

The solutions when  0≤x≤360º are:  36.87º and 306.87º.
