\dfrac{\tan x+\cot x}{\tan x-\cot x}=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2x-\cos^2x}\\\\\text{use}\ \tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x},\ \cot x=\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}\\\\\tan x+\cot x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}+\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}=\dfrac{\sin x\cdot\sin x}{\sin x\cos x}+\dfrac{\cos x\cdot\cos x}{\sin x\cos x}\\\\=\dfrac{\sin^2x+\cos^2x}{\sin x\cos x}\\\\\text{use}\ \sin^2x+\cos^2x=1\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\sin x\cos x}\\\\\tan x-\cot x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}-\dfrac{\cos x}{\sin x}=\dfrac{\sin^2x-\cos^2x}{\sin x\cos x}


L_s=\dfrac{\tan x+\cot x}{\tan x-\cot x}=\dfrac{\frac{1}{\sin x\cos x}}{\frac{\sin^2x-\cos^2x}{\sin x\cos x}}=\dfrac{1}{\sin x\cos x}\cdot\dfrac{\sin x\cos x}{\sin^2x-\cos^2x}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2x-\cos^2x}=R_s\\\\L_s=R_s\Rightarrow The\ identity.

Express this is scientific notation
Vitek1552 [10]
Place the decimal point right after the first nonzero digit, which is 3. 

So you'll go from this 0.003045 to this 3.045 after this move.
 
Now ask yourself: "how many spots must I move the decimal point to get back to 0.003045?"

The answer is "3 spots to the left"

The exponent of the final answer is -3
The negative indicates "move left" and the 3 tells us how many places to move the decimal

Therefore, 0.003045 = 3.045 \times 10^{-3}

Answer: Choice C)
This is assuming you meant to write the -3 as an exponent

Each marble bag sold by Lucy's Marble Company contains 7 yellow marbles for every 5 green marbles. If a bag has 45 green marbles
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

63 yellow marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up this equation as a proportion:

7/5 = x/45

Divide 45 by 5 to see what 7/5 must be multiplied by to get to x/45.

You should get 9, so also multiply 7 by 9 to get this:

7/5 = 63/45

This shows that there are 63 yellow marbles for 45 green marbles.

Please thank, rate, and mark brainliest! :)

Box A contains 2 red and 2 green balls and box B contains 1 red and 2 green balls. A box is selected at random and then a ball i
serious [3.7K]
The answer is 1/2. I think that since the question is about Box B , only boxes will be taken into consideration. Since the total number of boxes are two and box b is one ,the probability of the box being B is 1/2.

What is the total cost if the shirt cost $40 and 20% off
Eddi Din [679]
You'd simply have to find 20% of $40. To find the percent of a number, you would change the percent into an actual decimal/number, and then multiply them both. So the percent would become 0.20.

40 × 0.20 = 8

So now you would subtract 8 from the cost of 40.

 40 - 8 = 32.

The shirt costs $32.
