The number of gallons of water in the tank at t=10 is

... W(10) = 160,000 -10(8000 -10) = 80100

The number of gallons of water in the tank at t=10.5 is

... W(10.5) = 160,000 -10.5(8000 -10.5) = 76110.25

The rate of change over the interval is

... (W(10.5) - W(10))/(10.5 - 10) = (76110.25 - 80100)/(0.5) = -7979.5

The average rate of change in the number of gallons of water in the tank over the interval is -7979.5 gal/min.

The sign is negative, so the amount of water is decreasing.

Select the angle that correctly completes the law of cosines for this triangle. 72 + 252 – 2(7)(25)cos ___ = 242 A. 180° B. 90°
meriva

Answer:

x =76.45 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

72 + 252 – 2(7)(25)cos _x__=242

combine like terms

324-350cosx = 242

subtract 324 from each side

-350x = -82

divide by -350

cos x = -82/-350

cos x = 82/350

take the arccos of each side

arccos (cos x) = arccos (82/350)

x =76.45 degrees

Prove this trigonometric equation;<br><br> - tan^2x + sec^2x = 1,
alekssr [168]
Hey there :)

- tan²x + sec²x = 1    or    1 + tan²x = sec²x

sin²x + cos²x = 1 
Divide the whole by cos²x

\frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} + \frac{cos^2x}{cos^2x} = \frac{1}{cos^2x}

\frac{sinx}{cosx} = tanx so \frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} = tan^2x
and
\frac{1}{cosx} = secx so \frac{1}{cos^2x} = sec^2x

Therefore,
tan²x + 1 = sec²x
Take tan²x to the other side {You will have the same answer}

1 = - tan²x = sec²x or sec²x - tanx = 1
