Answer:

C. 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using set notations,

Check the attachment for the diagram.

Let the total fund shared by the town be 100% which will be our universal set.

Let X be proportion of households that own mutual funds but not individual

From the venn diagram,  

The total number of people that owned mutual fund M = (proportion of  households that owned both mutual fund and individual stock) +  (proportion of households that own mutual funds but not individual stocks)

If X is the proportion of households that own mutual funds but not individual stocks

The total number of people that owned mutual fund = (proportion of  households that owned both mutual fund and individual stock) +  X

X = (the total number of people that owned mutual fund)- (proportion of  households that owned both mutual fund and individual stock)

X = 60% - 20%

X = 40%

Condense (cos92°)(cos133°)-(sin92°)(sin133°) into a singular trigonometric function expression, then find the exact value.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

-1/√2  

Step-by-step explanation:

According to trigonometry identity

cos(A+B) = cosAcosB - sinA sinB

Given the expression

(cos92°)(cos133°)-(sin92°)(sin133°)

This can be expressed as cos(92+133) where A = 92, B = 133

(cos92°)(cos133°)-(sin92°)(sin133°)

= cos(92+133)

= cos225

= -0.7071

= -1/√2

Hence the exact value is  -1/√2
