First take note he only has $20 and the bag he must buy is $12.55. Also the loose seeds are $1.49 per pound.

To solve subtract 12.55 from 20

20-12.55=7.45

So after buying the 10 lb bag he has $7.45 left now divide that by 1.49

7.45/1.49=5

So after buying the 10 lb bag he can also buy 5 lb of the loose seeds!

Beverly drove from the Atlantic City to New York she drove 284 miles at a constant speed of 58 mph how long did it take Beverly

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

4.9 hours = 4 hours 54 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/time

time * speed = distance

time = distance/speed

time = (284 miles)/(58 mph) = 4.9 hours

4.9 hours - 4 hours = 0.9 hours

0.9 hours * (60 minutes)/(1 hour) = 54 minutes

4.9 hours = 4 hours 54 minutes

——————————

Solve the trigonometric equation:

$\mathsf{2\,cos^2\,x-cos\,x=1}\\\\ \mathsf{2\,cos^2\,x-cos\,x-1=0}$

Make a substitution:

$\mathsf{cos\,x=t\qquad (-1\le t\le 1)}$

and the equation becomes

$\mathsf{2t^2-t-1=0}$

Rewrite conveniently – t as + t – 2t, and then factor the left-hand side by grouping:

$\mathsf{2t^2+t-2t-1=0}\\\\ \mathsf{t\cdot (2t+1)-1\cdot (2t+1)=0}$

Factor out 2t + 1:

$\mathsf{(2t+1)\cdot (t-1)=0}\\\\ \begin{array}{rcl} \mathsf{2t+1=0}&~\textsf{ or }~&\mathsf{t-1=0}\\\\ \mathsf{2t=1}&~\textsf{ or }~&\mathsf{t=1}\\\\ \mathsf{t=\dfrac{\,1\,}{2}}&~\textsf{ or }~&\mathsf{t=1} \end{array}$

Substitute back for t = cos x:

$\begin{array}{rcl}\mathsf{cos\,x=\dfrac{\,1\,}{2}}&~\textsf{ or }~&\mathsf{cos\,x=1}\\\\ \mathsf{cos\,x=cos\,60^\circ}&~\textsf{ or }~&\mathsf{cos\,x=cos\,0} \end{array}$

Therefore,

$\begin{array}{rcl} \mathsf{x=\pm\,60^\circ+k\cdot 360^\circ}&~\textsf{ or }~&\mathsf{cos\,x=0+k\cdot 360^\circ} \end{array}$

where k is an integer.

Solution set:

$\mathsf{S=\left\{x\in\mathbb{R}:~~x=-\,60^\circ+k\cdot 360^\circ~~or~~x=60^\circ+k\cdot 360^\circ~~or~~x=k\cdot 360^\circ,~~k\in\mathbb{Z}\right\}}$

I hope this helps. =)
