Answer:

C. cot theta

Step-by-step explanation:

(csc theta -cot theta )/(sec theta -1)

csc = 1/ sin

cot = cos / sin

sec = 1 / cos

Let x = theta

(1/ sin x -cos x / sin x )/(1/ cos x -1)

Getting a common denominator in the denominator and combining terms

(1- cos x)/ sinx  / ( 1 - cos x) / cos x

(1- cosx)      (1- cosx)

----------- ÷ ------------

sinx            cos x

Copy dot flip

(1- cosx)       cosx

----------- * ------------

sinx            1 -cos x

Cancel like terms

cos x / sin x

cos / sin = cot

cot x

cot theta

PLEASE HELP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!! (no trolls) PLEASE SHOW WORK OR GIVE EXPLANATION!!!!!!
IgorLugansk [536]

explanation:

The fastest way to find the missing endpoint is to determine the distance from the known endpoint to the midpoint and then performing the same transformation on the midpoint.  In this case, the x-coordinate moves from 4 to 2, or down by 2, so the new x-coordinate must be 2-2 = 0.  The y-coordinate moves from 4 to -5, or down by 9, so the new y-coordinate must be -5-9 = -14.

 

An alternate solution would be to substitute (4,4) for (x1,y1) and (2,-5) for (x,y) into the midpoint formula:

x=(x1+x2)/2

y=(y1+y2)/2

Solving each equation for (x2,y2) yields the solution (0,-14).

Constance's car has a 12-gallon gas
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Constance's car has a 12-gallon gas tank.

She can travel 25 miles on one gallon of gas, so she can travel

25\cdot 12=300 miles using all gas from the tank.

Constance begins with a full tank of gas and drives at a constant rate of 40 miles per hour.

So, Constance can drive for

300 : 40=7.5 hours.

Heather chops 250 carrots in 2 hours, and 750 carrots in 6 hours. Write an equation that represents the direct relationship betw
Luda [366]
C represents carrots. t represents time in hours.

c= 125t

To find this equation, I found the unit rate, or how many carrots were chooped per hour. I then plugged it into slope intercept form (y=mx+b) where the y intercept was 0 because she can chop 0 carrots in 0 hours.

The length of a bed would be about
stepan [7]

Answer:

2 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a length of a bed is DEFINITELY not 2 miles, and it isn't 2 inches either, because they're both too big and too small. However, 2 feet is also pretty small, too, because 2 feet is about the size of a crib. So what's left is 2 yards, so a bed is about 2 yards.
