Answer:

Billy is incorrect. The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure to better understand the problem

Let

x ----> the number of apples

y ----> the number of peppers

we have

x=3\ apples

y=1\ peppers

The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is equal to

\frac{x}{y}

substitute

\frac{3}{1}

therefore

Billy is incorrect. The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is 3:1

Given: sin ∅= 4/5 and cos x = -5/13 ; evaluate the following expression.<br><br> tan( ∅ - x )
Pavlova-9 [17]

By definition of tangent,

tan(θ - x) = sin(θ - x) / cos(θ - x)

Expand the sine and cosine terms using the angle sum identities,

sin(x ± y) = sin(x) cos(y) ± cos(x) sin(y)

cos(x ± y) = cos(x) cos(y) ∓ sin(x) sin(y)

from which we get

tan(θ - x) = (sin(θ) cos(x) - cos(θ) sin(x)) / (cos(θ) cos(x) + sin(θ) sin(x))

Also recall the Pythagorean identity,

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1

from which we have two possible values for each of cos(θ) and sin(x):

cos(θ) = ± √(1 - sin²(θ)) = ± 3/5

sin(x) = ± √(1 - cos²(x)) = ± 12/13

Since there are 2 choices each for cos(θ) and sin(x), we'll have 4 possible values of tan(θ - x) :

• cos(θ) = 3/5, sin(x) = 12/13 :

tan(θ - x) = -56/33

• cos(θ) = -3/5, sin(x) = 12/13 :

tan(θ - x) = 16/63

• cos(θ) = 3/5, sin(x) = -12/13 :

tan(θ - x) = -16/63

• cos(θ) = -3/5, sin(x) = -12/13 :

tan(θ - x) = 56/33
