To solve the problem posed in the statement we need to know the equivalence between squared foot and squared inches, and that is:
1 square foot = 144 square inches
So Reed uses 8 pieces of glass per 144 squared inches as well.
Now we can use a rule of three, simple and direct proportion to solve the question, it goes like this:
144 squared inches ------> 8 pieces glass
864 squared inches ------> x
x = (864)(8)/144
x = 48
Hence, Reed will use 48 pieces of glass to make a window that is 864 square inches.
Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):
x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number. x+9 = 10, so x = 9.
Think of it this way: there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.
Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.
The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:
sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55 (answer)
Answer:
7/33 = 21 repeating and I'm pretty sure the question wants you to write it as an improper fraction. so your answer would be 40/33

Sec x is equal to 1/cosx, cot x is equal to cosx/sinx. cos x cancels, and you are left with 1/sinx. this is equal to cscx. Cosecant is : hypotenuse / opposite, so the answer is **D**
