Answer:

210 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Arthur ⇒ a = 3 k
  • Yusuf ⇒  y = 5k
  • Bill ⇒      b = 6k

<u>Yusuf gave </u><u>x</u><u> stamps to Arthur, then:</u>

  • y = 5k -x
  • a = 3k + x

<u>Bill gave Arthur 42 stamps more than Yusuf gave to Arthur, then:</u>

  • b = 6k - (x+42)
  • a = 3k + x + x + 42

<u>Now all 3 have same amount of stamps:</u>

  • 5k -x = 6k - x - 42 = 3k + 2x + 42

<u>From the first part of the equation we get:</u>

  • 6k - 5k = 42 + x - x
  • k = 42

<u>How many stamps did Yusuf have at first?</u>

  • y = 5k
  • y =5*42
  • y = 210 stamps

Yusuf had 210 stamps at first

Answer:

sin( -∅ )

- 1 / csc ( ∅ )

1 / csc ( -∅ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sin(x) is and odd function (a function where f(-a) = f(a) ).

-sin( ∅ ) = sin( -∅ )

On the other hand, we know that sin( ∅ ) = 1 / csc ( ∅ )

Another odd function, so the same as before applies.

-sin( ∅ ) = -1 / csc ( ∅ )

-sin( ∅ ) = 1 / csc ( -∅ )
