Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The square in the middle has a length and width of 3, so multiply. <u>9</u>.
All of the triangles have a base of 3 and a height of 2. The area equation for triangles is

So base*height is 6. Divide that by 2 or multiply by 1/2.
You get 3. There are 4 triangles, so multiply <em>that</em> by 4. <u>12</u>.
Add 12 and 9 together, and you get:

I hope this helps!
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert all the secants and cosecants to cosine and sine, respectively. Recall that
and
.
Thus:


Let's do the first part first: (Recall how to divide fractions)

For the second term:

So, all together: (same denominator; combine terms)

Note the numerator; it can be derived from the Pythagorean Identity:

Thus, we can substitute the numerator:

Everything simplifies to 1.
Answer:
It will take Josie 80 minutes to run 10 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion between the number of minutes she runs to the number of miles she runs. From what we know in the equation, we know that it takes her 24 minutes to run 3 miles, and it takes x minutes to run 10 miles. We can represent this in a proportion!
We know that the ratio of 24:3 will be the same for any number of miles, so we can say
We can solve this by first simplifying the left hand side then isolation x by multiple both sides of the equation by 10.
24/3 = 8
8 = 
80 = x
It will take Josie 80 minutes to run 10 miles.
A company is selling books. It has to pay $500 to start printing the books, and once they have done that, the books sell at $14.99 each. How many books must they sell to make a profit?
First we would model an equation. X will be the amount of books sold, and Y will be profits (in dollars obv). They had to pay $500 before they could start selling, so we must account for that too.
This equation would be

because for every book sold, X increases by 1, increasing Y by 14.99
The answer would be 34 books sold in order to turn a profit. (500/14.99=
