In a store, perhaps. People want it to be easy to shop, so it would be best for say, a top ramen package to be the same net weight as all the other top ramen packages. This makes it 1) easy to label and 2) easy to be confident buying, as it is exactly the same as all the others.
Sec t (theta) - 2 = 0
sec t = 2
1/ cos t = 2
cos t = 1/2
Answer:
t = π / 3 + 2 k π , or : t = 5 π / 3 + 2 kπ,
k ∈ Z
The answer i believe is 4000
That would be 3/8
Because 1/8 = 12.5 %

To find the gradient of the tangent, we must first differentiate the function.

The gradient at x = 0 is given by evaluating f'(0).

The derivative of the function at this point is negative, which tells us <em>the function is decreasing at that point</em>.
The tangent to the line is a straight line, so we will have a linear equation of the form y = mx + c. We know the gradient, m, is equal to -1, so

Now we need to substitute a point on the tangent into this equation to find c. We know a point when x = 0 lies on here. To find the y-coordinate of this point we need to evaluate f(0).

So the point (0, -1) lies on the tangent. Substituting into the tangent equation:
