Answer:

y = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

1) add 3 to both sides of your equation to cancel out the -3

end up with: (1/3)y + 14 = (1/2)y

2) multiply both sides of your equation by 2 to cancel out the (1/2)

end up with: (2/3)y + 28 = y

3) subtract (2/3)y from both sides of the equation to cancel out the positive (2/3)y

end up with: 28 = (1/3)y

4) multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to cancel out the (1/3)

end up with: 84 = y

If sin A = 3/8, find the value of cosec A - sec A.

alexira [117]

Answer:

$\csc A - \sec A = \dfrac 83 + \dfrac{8}{\sqrt{55}}\\\\\csc A - \sec A = \dfrac 83 - \dfrac{8}{\sqrt{55}}$

Step by step explanation:

$\text{Given that,}\\\\~~~~~~\sin A = \dfrac 38 \\\\\implies \sin^2 A = \dfrac 9{64}\\\\\implies 1 - \cos^2 A = \dfrac{9}{64}\\\\\implies \cos ^2 A = 1 - \dfrac 9{64}\\\\\implies \cos^2 A = \dfrac{55}{64}\\\\\implies \cos A =\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{55}{64}}\\ \\\implies \cos A = \pm\dfrac{\sqrt{55}}8\\\\$

$\implies \dfrac 1{\cos A} = \pm\dfrac{8}{\sqrt{55}}$

$\text{Now,}\\\\\csc A - \sec A\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\sin A}- \dfrac{1}{\cos A}\\\\=\dfrac 83 -\left(\pm \dfrac 8{\sqrt {55}} \right)\\ \\\text{Hence,}\\\\\csc A - \sec A = \dfrac 83 + \dfrac{8}{\sqrt{55}}\\\\\csc A - \sec A = \dfrac 83 - \dfrac{8}{\sqrt{55}}$

A store has 1173 pairs of socks. the socks are sold in packs of 4 pairs. how many packs of socks can the store sell?

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

293 packs is the maximum the store can sell.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the number of packs that can be made with 4 pairs of socks.

(1173 pairs)/(4 pairs/pack) = 293.25 packs

We can't sell 0.25 pack (1 pair of socks), so drop that fraction to yield 293 full packs. Donate the spare pair, so to speak, to the local IRS agent.

A fair charges $7.25 for admission and $5.50 for a ride pass. Ten friends visited the fair. Not all of the friends purchased rid

kati45 [8]

You take
7.25 (10)+5.5p=105.5
72.5+5.5p=105.5
To make the equation easier multiply the whole equation by ten like this
(72.5+5.5p=105.5)10 that equals
725+55p=1055
Then subtract 725 to both sides
725+55p=1055
-725 -725
____ _____
55p=330
Then divide by 55 on both sides and that equals 6 so 6 people bought tickets
