Answer:

49/81

Step-by-step explanation:

[cos(a) + sin(a)]^2 = (1/3)^2

(cos(a))^2 + 2sin(a)cos(a) + (sin(a))^2 = 1/9

(sin(a))^2 + (cos(a))^2 = 1

1 + 2sin(a)cos(a) = 1/9

2sin(a)cos(a) = -8/9

sin(a)cos(a) = -4/9

[cos(a) + sin(a)]^4 = (1/3)^4 = 1/81

(cos(a))^4 + 4sin(a)×(cos(a))^3 + 6×(sin(a))^2×(cos(a))^2 + 4(sin(a))^3×cos(a) + (sin(a))^4 = 1/81

(cos(a))^4 + (sin(a))^4 + 4sin(a)cos(a)((cos(a))^2 + (sin(a))^2) + 6(sin(a)cos(a))^2 = 1/81

cos(a))^4 + (sin(a))^4 + 4sin(a)cos(a)(1) + 6(sin(a)cos(a))^2 = 1/81

(cos(a))^4 + (sin(a))^4 + 4(-4/9) +6((-4/9)^2) = 1/81

(cos(a))^4 + (sin(a))^4 - 16/9 + 6(16/81) = 1/81

(cos(a))^4 + (sin(a))^4 = 1/81 + 16/9 - 6(16/81)

(cos(a))^4 + (sin(a))^4 = 49/81

You are hiring a limousine. One company charges a $60 reservation fee plus another $15 per hour. A second company charges a $25
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the total charges be y and the number of hours be x

Company A charges

$60 reservation fee plus another $15 per hour.

so

y=60+15x----------1

Company B charges

$25 reservation fee plus another $20 per hour

y=25+20x------------2

Step two:

equate the 2 expressions above we have

60+15x=25+20x

collect like terms

60-25=20x-15x

35=5x

divide both sides by 5

x= 35/5

x= 7 hours
