Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 562 gold fish and you need to have 18 in each tank, how many tanks do you need?

You first need to start with dividing the gold fish amount to the amount that can fit in each tank, (562 divided by 18 = 31.22222222222222). Then you multiply 18 by 31 and you get 558. This is obviously not as much goldfish as you had before, so to fix this you add another tank which makes 32 tanks, but you minus 562 from 558 and you have only 4 fish in the last tank.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

32 tanks

Step-by-step explanation:

since 562/18

is 31.222222...

You would have to round up because you the limit is 18 fish. You would need 32 tanks to fit all the fish

A hose is leaking water at a rate of 2 oz/h. How many cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks?
Over [174]

Answer:

84 cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets how many how to change oz to cup

- One cup contains 8 oz

- We can use the ratio to solve this problem

- A hose is leaking water at a rate of 2 oz/h

- We need to find how many cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks

∵ The rate of the water leak out is 2 oz/hr

∵ 1 cup contains 8 oz

∴ 1 oz = \frac{1}{8} cup

∴ 2 oz = 2 × \frac{1}{8} = \frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4} cup

∴ The rate of the water leak out = \frac{1}{4} cup/h

∵ 1 day = 24 hours

∵ 1 week = 7 days

∴ 1 week = 7 × 24 = 168 hours

∵ The number of hours in 1 week is 168

∴ The number of hours in 2 weeks = 168 × 2 = 336 hours

⇒    cups    :    hours

⇒      \frac{1}{4}         :   1

⇒     x         :    336

- By using cross multiplication

∴ x = 336 × \frac{1}{4}

∴ x = 84

- x represents the number of cups of water leak out

<em>84 cups of water will leak out after 2 weeks</em>

Verify the following identity and show steps<br><br> (Cos2 θ)/(1+sin2 θ)= (cot θ-1)/(cot θ+1)
Paul [167]

Answer:

Verified below

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to show that (Cos2θ)/(1 + sin2θ) = (cot θ - 1)/(cot θ + 1)

In trigonometric identities;

Cot θ = cos θ/sin θ

Thus;

(cot θ - 1)/(cot θ + 1) gives;

((cos θ/sin θ) - 1)/((cos θ/sin θ) + 1)

Simplifying numerator and denominator gives;

((cos θ - sin θ)/sin θ)/((cos θ + sin θ)/sin θ)

This reduces to;

>> (cos θ - sin θ)/(cos θ + sin θ)

Multiply top and bottom by ((cos θ + sin θ) to get;

>> (cos² θ - sin²θ)/(cos²θ + sin²θ + 2sinθcosθ)

In trigonometric identities, we know that;

cos 2θ = (cos² θ - sin²θ)

cos²θ + sin²θ = 1

sin 2θ = 2sinθcosθ

Thus;

(cos² θ - sin²θ)/(cos²θ + sin²θ + 2sinθcosθ) gives us:

>> cos 2θ/(1 + sin 2θ)

This is equal to the left hand side.

Thus, it is verified.
