Riley has 250 marbles in his collection. 50 of the marbles are red.

The fraction $\frac{50}{250}$ represents the 50 marbles that are red out of all the marbles. We can find out what percent of marbles are red by changing the fraction $\frac{50}{250}$ to a percent.

The fraction $\frac{50}{250}$ can be reduced to $\frac{1}{5}$ by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor of 50 and 250.

1 ÷ 5 = 0.2

0.2 × 100 = 20%

Therefore, 20% of the marbles are red.

Fraction which are red = 50/250

= 1/5

To get the percent we multiply by 100:-

1/ 5 * 100

= 100/5

= 20% answer

Match the identities to their values taking these conditions into consideration sinx=sqrt2 /2 cosy=-1/2 angle x is in the first

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

$\cos(x+y)$ goes with $-\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}}{4}$

$\sin(x+y)$ goes with $\frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}{4}$

$\tan(x+y)$ goes with $\sqrt{3}-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\cos(x+y)$

$\cos(x)\cos(y)-\sin(x)\sin(y)$ by the addition identity for cosine.

We are given:

$\sin(x)=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ which if we look at the unit circle we should see

$\cos(x)=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ .

We are also given:

$\cos(y)=\frac{-1}{2}$ which if we look the unit circle we should see

$\sin(y)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ .

Apply both of these given to:

$\cos(x+y)$

$\cos(x)\cos(y)-\sin(x)\sin(y)$ by the addition identity for cosine.

$\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{-1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

$\frac{-\sqrt{2}}{4}-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{4}$

$\frac{-\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{6}}{4}$

$-\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}}{4}$

Apply both of the givens to:

$\sin(x+y)$

$\sin(x)\cos(y)+\sin(y)\cos(x)$ by addition identity for sine.

$\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$\frac{-\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{6}}{4}$

$\frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}{4}$

Now I'm going to apply what 2 things we got previously to:

$\tan(x+y)$

$\frac{\sin(x+y)}{\cos(x+y)}$ by quotient identity for tangent

$\frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}{-(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})}$

$-\frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}}$

Multiply top and bottom by bottom's conjugate.

When you multiply conjugates you just have to multiply first and last.

That is if you have something like (a-b)(a+b) then this is equal to a^2-b^2.

$-\frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}}$

$-\frac{6-\sqrt{2}\sqrt{6}-\sqrt{2}\sqrt{6}+2}{6-2}$

$-\frac{8-2\sqrt{12}}{4}$

There is a perfect square in 12, 4.

$-\frac{8-2\sqrt{4}\sqrt{3}}{4}$

$-\frac{8-2(2)\sqrt{3}}{4}$

$-\frac{8-4\sqrt{3}}{4}$

Divide top and bottom by 4 to reduce fraction:

$-\frac{2-\sqrt{3}}{1}$

$-(2-\sqrt{3})$

Distribute:

$\sqrt{3}-2$
