Answer:

Bob the builder need 180 kg sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of concrete mixture is 480 kg. It is given that concrete is made by mixing cement, sand and gravel in the ratio 1:3:4.

Let the amount of cement, sand and gravel in concrete mixture be x, 3x, 4x respectively.

x+3x+4x=480

8x=480

Divide both sides by 8.

x=60

The amount of sand is 3x, so

3\times 60=180

Therefore bob the builder need 180 kg sand.

1x+3x+4x = 480

8x = 480

xdivide by 8

x=60

cement: 1x = 60kg

sand : 3x = 3*60 = 180kg

gravel : 4x = 4*60 = 240kg

Answer:

x = 1

GF = 12

GH = 15

FH = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

G___F___H

GH = GF + FH

11x +4 = ( 3x +9) + (5x-2)

11x+4= 8x + 7

11x - 8x = 7-4

3x = 3

x =3/3

x = 1

GF = 3x + 9 = 3(1)+9=3+9=12

GH = 11x +4= 11(1)+4=11+4 = 15

FH = 5x - 2 = 5(1) - 2 = 5 - 2 = 3

I hope I helped you^_^

How would you write this equation in terms of sin and cos as well as simplify it from there?
ziro4ka [17]
Try this option:
(1+ \frac{cosx}{sinx})(1- \frac{cosx}{sinx})- \frac{1}{sin^2x}= \frac{sin^2x-cos^2x}{sin^2x}- \frac{1}{sin^2x}=
= \frac{sin^2x-cos^2x-sin^2x-cos^2x}{sin^2x}=- \frac{2cos^2x}{sin^2x}.
