Answer: Arun is now 20, Shree is 10 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

In the system of equations Arun's age is a. Shree is s

a = 2s .(current age equation) Subtract 5 from each for five years ago,

a-5 = 3(s-5) . Substitute 2s for a in the second equation

2s -5 = 3(s-5) distribute and reorganize

2s-5 = 3s -15 . 15 - 5 = 3s - 2s

10 = s . Substitute into the first equation to find a

a = 2(10)

a = 20

5 years ago Shree was 5 and Arun was 15

Answer: Arun = 20, Shreet = 10

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let A represent Arun's current age and S represent Shreet's current age

Current Age Age 5 years ago

A = 2S A - 5 = 3(S - 5)

Substitute A = 2S into the "5 years ago" equation to solve for S:

(2S) - 5 = 3(S - 5)

2S - 5 = 3S - 15

-5 = S - 15

10 = S

Substitute S = 10 into the "current age" equation to solve for A:

A = 2S

= 2(10)

= 20

(cot^2x - 1)/(csc^2x) = cos2x

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea here is to get the left side simplified down so it is the same as the right side. Consequently, there are 3 identities for cos(2x):

$cos(2x)=cos^2x-sin^2x$ ,

$cos(2x)=1-2sin^2x$ , and

$cos(2x)=2cos^2x-1$

We begin by rewriting the left side in terms of sin and cos, since all the identities deal with sines and cosines and no cotangents or cosecants. Rewriting gives you:

$\frac{\frac{cos^2x}{sin^2x} -\frac{sin^2x}{sin^2x} }{\frac{1}{sin^2x} }$

Notice I also wrote the 1 in terms of sin^2(x).

Now we will put the numerator of the bigger fraction over the common denominator:

$\frac{\frac{cos^2x-sin^2x}{sin^2x} }{\frac{1}{sin^2x} }$

The rule is bring up the lower fraction and flip it to multiply, so that will give us:

$\frac{cos^2x-sin^2x}{sin^2x} *\frac{sin^2x}{1}$

And canceling out the sin^2 x leaves us with just

$cos^2x-sin^2x$ which is one of our identities.

Lisa and her daughter weigh 185 pounds all together. The ratio of lisa’s weight to her daughter weight is 4:1 . How much does li

zzz [600]

Since the ratio of mother to daughter is 4:1, the weight of the mother and daughter together is five times the weight of the daughter.

In fact, if the daughter weights $d$ pound, the mother weights $4d$ pounds, and the total weight is $d+4d = 5d$ .

We know that this total is 185 pounds, so we have

$5d = 185 \iff d = \dfrac{185}{5} = 37$

So, the daughter weights 37 pounds.

mezya [45]

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
$5^2+x^2=15^2 \\
25+x^2=225 \\
x^2=225-25 \\
x^2=200 \\
x=\sqrt{200} \\
x=\sqrt{100 \times 2} \\
x=10\sqrt{2} \\
x \approx 14.14$

The ladder will reach approximately 14.14 feet (exactly 10√2 feet) up on the building.
