For this case we must find the quotient of the following expression:

\frac {\frac {x} {x-1}} {\frac {1} {x + 1}}

Applying double C we have the following expression:

\frac {x (x + 1)} {x-1} =

Applying distributive property to the terms within the parentheses of the numerator we have:

\frac {x ^ 2 + x} {x-1}

Thus, the quotient is given by option A

Answer:

Option A

Answer:

The answer is option A. (x^2 + x)/(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must first understand how to divide fractions.  When dividing fractions, the first fraction is unchanged and is multiplied by the reciprocal of the second fraction.  If we apply this knowledge to this problem, we get:

x/x-1 * x+1/1

When we multiply fractions, we simply multiply both of the numerators together and both of the denominators together to create a single fraction.

In this case we get:

x(x+1)/x-1

When we simplify this single fraction by using the distributive property, we get the following:

(x^2 + x)/(x-1)

Therefore, your answer is option A.

Hope this helps!

Every economic decision has only positive benefits. gained opportunities. unavoidable limitations. a consequence or tradeoff.
Alina [70]
Every economic decision has "a consequence or tradeoff" - this final answer choice is correct. Every time that an individual, business, or institution makes an economic decision, they always forgo an opportunity to use the same capital or resources for other endeavors. As such, there is a tradeoff incurred by not making the decision to use the resource in another manner. This is known as opportunity cost and is one of the fundamental tenets of economic theory.

Artist 52 [7]

Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

There are four students: n = 4

Number of students to be selected: r = 2

To calculate the combination of 2 students to be chosen, we use:

\begin{gathered} ^4C_2=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}=\frac{4!}{(4-2)!}=\frac{4!}{2!} \\ ^4C_2=\frac{4\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}{2\cdot1}=\frac{4\cdot3}{1}=12 \\ ^4C_2=12 \end{gathered}

Therefore, there 12 possible combinations from these

Please help with any of this Im stuck and having trouble with pre calc is it basic triogmetric identities using quotient and rec
german

How I was taught all of these problems is in terms of r, x, and y. Where sin = y/r, cos = x/r, tan = y/x, csc = r/y, sec = r/x, cot = x/y. That is how I will designate all of the specific pieces in each problem.

#3

Let's start with sin here. \frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} Therefore, because sin is y/r, r = \sqrt{5} and y = +2. Moving over to cot, which is x/y, x = -1, and y = 2. We know y has to be positive because it is positive in our given value of sin. Now, to find cos, we have to do x/r.

cos = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{-\sqrt{5}}{5}

#4

Let's start with secant here. Secant is r/x, where r (the length value/hypotenuse) cannot be negative. So, r = 9 and x = -7. Moving over to tan, x must still equal -7, and y = 4\sqrt{2}. Now, to find csc, we have to do r/y.

csc = \frac{9}{4\sqrt{2}} = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{8}

The pythagorean identities are

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1,

1 + cot^2 = csc^2,

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

#5

Let's take a look at the information given here. We know that cos = -3/4, and sin (the y value), must be greater than 0. To find sin, we can use the first pythagorean identity.

sin^2 + (-3/4)^2 = 1

sin^2 + 9/16 = 1

sin^2 = 7/16

sin = \sqrt{7/16} = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}

Now to find tan using a pythagorean identity, we'll first need to find sec. sec is the inverse/reciprocal of cos, so therefore sec = -4/3. Now, we can use the third trigonometric identity to find tan, just as we did for sin. And, since we know that our y value is positive, and our x value is negative, tan will be negative.

tan^2 + 1 = (-4/3)^2

tan^2 + 1 = 16/9

tan^2 = 7/9

tan = -\sqrt{7/9} = \frac{-\sqrt{7}}{3}

#6

Let's take a look at the information given here. If we know that csc is negative, then our y value must also be negative (r will never be negative). So, if cot must be positive, then our x value must also be negative (a negative divided by a negative makes a positive). Let's use the second pythagorean identity to solve for cot.

1 + cot^2 = (\frac{-\sqrt{6}}{2})^{2}

1 + cot^2 = 6/4

cot^2 = 2/4

cot = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

tan = \sqrt{2}

Next, we can use the third trigonometric identity to solve for sec. Remember that we can get tan from cot, and cos from sec. And, from what we determined in the beginning, sec/cos will be negative.

(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}})^2 + 1 = sec^2

4/2 + 1 = sec^2

2 + 1 = sec^2

sec^2 = 3

sec = -\sqrt{3}

cos = \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{3}

Hope this helps!! :)

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

number of chocolate chip cookies = 36 × ¼ = 9

number of oatmeal cookies = 36 × ⅓ = 12

36 - 9 - 12 = 15

Alex made 15 peanut butter cookies.
