Find the exact value of cos(7\pi /12)

Mathematics

7π/12 lies in the second quadrant, so we expect cos(7π/12) to be negative.

Recall that

\cos^2x=\dfrac{1+\cos(2x)}2

which tells us

\cos\left(\dfrac{7\pi}{12}\right)=-\sqrt{\dfrac{1+\cos\left(\frac{7\pi}6\right)}2}

Now,

\cos\left(\dfrac{7\pi}6\right)=-\cos\left(\dfrac\pi6\right)=-\dfrac{\sqrt3}2

and so

\cos\left(\dfrac{7\pi}{12}\right)=-\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\frac{\sqrt3}2}2}=\boxed{-\dfrac{\sqrt{2-\sqrt3}}2}

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer is B. $3.85.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, first if we get the percentage that the shoes were marked up by, we get that they were marked up to $35, because 40% of $25 is $10 and $25 + $10 = $35.

Then, we find the percentage of $35 that she earned. In order to do this, we see what 11% of $35 is. We get $3.85, because 10% of $35 is $3.50, and 1% of $35 is $0.35. $3.50 + $0.35 = $3.85.

This is why the answer is B. $3.85.

How to Solve:

Take the denominator of 4/16 and find a number to make it 10, 100, any one followed by zeroes:

16 x 6.25 = 100

Do the same to the numerator:

4 x 6.25 = 25

Now, take 25 and take a decimal point two spaces to the right:
