Answer:

cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{84}{85}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

cos(\alpha+\beta)=cos(\alpha)*cos(\beta)-sin(\alpha)*sin(\beta)

Remember the identity

cos^{2} (x)+sin^2(x)=1

step 1

Find the value of sin(\alpha)

we have that

The angle alpha lie on the III Quadrant

so

The values of sine and cosine are negative

cos(\alpha)=-\frac{8}{17}

Find the value of sine

cos^{2} (\alpha)+sin^2(\alpha)=1

substitute

(-\frac{8}{17})^{2}+sin^2(\alpha)=1

sin^2(\alpha)=1-\frac{64}{289}

sin^2(\alpha)=\frac{225}{289}

sin(\alpha)=-\frac{15}{17}

step 2

Find the value of cos(\beta)

we have that

The angle beta lie on the IV Quadrant

so

The value of the cosine is positive and the value of the sine is negative

sin(\beta)=-\frac{4}{5}

Find the value of cosine

cos^{2} (\beta)+sin^2(\beta)=1

substitute

(-\frac{4}{5})^{2}+cos^2(\beta)=1

cos^2(\beta)=1-\frac{16}{25}

cos^2(\beta)=\frac{9}{25}

cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}

step 3

Find cos⁡ (α + β)

cos(\alpha+\beta)=cos(\alpha)*cos(\beta)-sin(\alpha)*sin(\beta)

we have

cos(\alpha)=-\frac{8}{17}

sin(\alpha)=-\frac{15}{17}

sin(\beta)=-\frac{4}{5}

cos(\beta)=\frac{3}{5}

substitute

cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{8}{17}*\frac{3}{5}-(-\frac{15}{17})*(-\frac{4}{5})

cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{24}{85}-\frac{60}{85}

cos(\alpha+\beta)=-\frac{84}{85}

What is Z 2(2z -4)=4
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

z=3

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2z -4)=4

Divide by 2

2/2(2z -4)=4/2

2z-4 = 2

Add 4 to each side

2z-4+4 = 2+4

2z = 6

Divide by 2

2z/2 = 6/2

z=3

The ticket price which will maximize the student's council is: C. $3.10.

<h3>What is price?</h3>

Price can be defined as an amount of money which is primarily set by the seller of a product, and it must be paid by a buyer to the seller, so as to enable the acquisition of this product.

Based on the information provided about Valley High School student council, we can logically deduce the following data:

  • Total number of students = 420 students.
  • Lowest ticket price = $2.00.
  • Increase in ticket price = $0.20.
  • Attendance = 20 fewer students

<h3>How to determine the ticket price?</h3>

Mathematically, the equation which model the profit is given by:

Profit = price × number of tickets sold

P(x) = (2 + 0.2x)(420 - 20x)

P(x) = 840 + 84x - 40x - 4x²

P(x) = -4x² + 44x + 840.

For any quadratic equation with a parabolic curve, the axis of symmetry is given by:

Xmax = -b/2a

Xmax = -44/2(-4)

Xmax = -44/-8.

Xmax = 5.5

Ticket price for maximum profit is given by:

Ticket price = 2 + 0.2x

Ticket price = 2 + 0.2(5.5)

Ticket price = $3.10.

The water in a reservoir decreased by 47% during a drought. Before the drought, the reservoir held 44,580 acre ft (AF) of water.
RSB [31]


44,580 x 47 %

44,580 x .47 = 20,952.6

So, the water decreased 20,952.6 ft

If you want the water level after the drought just subtract.

44,580 - 20,952.6 =  23,627.4 ft

Hope this helps. :)
