$|\Omega|=12\cdot11=132\\ |A|=6\cdot5=30\\\\ P(A)=\dfrac{30}{132}=\dfrac{5}{22}$

I don't need you to work it out, just theorem(s) i need to reach the answer :)

Not sure why such an old question is showing up on my feed...

Anyway, let $x=\tan^{-1}\dfrac43$ and $y=\sin^{-1}\dfrac35$ . Then we want to find the exact value of $\cos(x-y)$ .

Use the angle difference identity:

$\cos(x-y)=\cos x\cos y+\sin x\sin y$

and right away we find $\sin y=\dfrac35$ . By the Pythagorean theorem, we also find $\cos y=\dfrac45$ . (Actually, this could potentially be negative, but let's assume all angles are in the first quadrant for convenience.)

Meanwhile, if $\tan x=\dfrac43$ , then (by Pythagorean theorem) $\sec x=\dfrac53$ , so $\cos x=\dfrac35$ . And from this, $\sin x=\dfrac45$ .

So,

$\cos\left(\tan^{-1}\dfrac43-\sin^{-1}\dfrac35\right)=\dfrac35\cdot\dfrac45+\dfrac45\cdot\dfrac35=\dfrac{24}{25}$

(5x – 3y) (3x + 4y)

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

$\boxed{\red{15 {x}^{2} + 11xy - 12 {y}^{2}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\blue{(5x - 3y)(3x + 4y)} \\ \blue{5x(3x + 4y) - 3y(3x + 4y)} \\ \blue{15 {x}^{2} + 20xy - 9xy - 12 {y}^{2} } \\ \pink{= 15 {x}^{2} + 11xy - 12 {y}^{2} }$
