Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3=15

Subtract 3 from both sides (3-3), 15-3

2x=12

Divide by 2 on both sides (2/2), 12/2=6

x=6

We know that $\sin(45)=\cos(45)$ and this is the only point when sin and cos are equal lengths. Because both $\sin(45),\cos(45)=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

Now if the sin of 30° is a half that would mean that cos of 60° is also a half.

Hope this helps.

A website received 2500 registered members in July. And the number of registered members in August decreased to 2245. What was t

quester [9]

Number of registrations a website received during July = 2500

Number of registrations a website received during August = 2245

Number by which the registrations decreased :

$=\tt 2500 - 2245$

$=\tt 255$

Thus, the registrations decreased by 255.

Let x be the perrcentage of decrease.

Which means :

$=\tt 255 = \frac{x}{100} \: of \: 2500$

$= \tt255 = \frac{x \times 2500}{100}$

$=\tt 255 = \frac{2500x}{100}$

$= \tt255 \times 100 = 2500x$

$= \tt25500 = 2500x$

$=\tt \frac{25000}{2500} = x$

$\color{plum} =\tt \bold{10.2\%}$

▪︎Thus, the percentage of decrease in the number of registered members = 10.2%
