Answer: £ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total hours Lena works from Monday to Friday = 34 hours

Hours she works on Saturdays = 4

Overtime rate of Saturday = 1.5 times her normal rate

Let x be the normal rate.

Then , Her total earning = 34 x + 4 \times(1.5x) =34x+6x=40x

Since her total earnings for week = £ 320

So,

320=40x\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{320}{40}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8

Thus, her normal rate of pay per hour = £ 8

1. cot x sec4x = cot x + 2 tan x + tan3x
Mars2501 [29]
1. cot(x)sec⁴(x) = cot(x) + 2tan(x) + tan(3x)
    cot(x)sec⁴(x)            cot(x)sec⁴(x)
                   0 = cos⁴(x) + 2cos⁴(x)tan²(x) - cos⁴(x)tan⁴(x)
                   0 = cos⁴(x)[1] + cos⁴(x)[2tan²(x)] + cos⁴(x)[tan⁴(x)]
                   0 = cos⁴(x)[1 + 2tan²(x) + tan⁴(x)]
                   0 = cos⁴(x)[1 + tan²(x) + tan²(x) + tan⁴(4)]
                   0 = cos⁴(x)[1(1) + 1(tan²(x)) + tan²(x)(1) + tan²(x)(tan²(x)]
                   0 = cos⁴(x)[1(1 + tan²(x)) + tan²(x)(1 + tan²(x))]
                   0 = cos⁴(x)(1 + tan²(x))(1 + tan²(x))
                   0 = cos⁴(x)(1 + tan²(x))²
                   0 = cos⁴(x)        or         0 = (1 + tan²(x))²
                ⁴√0 = ⁴√cos⁴(x)      or      √0 = (√1 + tan²(x))²
                   0 = cos(x)         or         0 = 1 + tan²(x)
         cos⁻¹(0) = cos⁻¹(cos(x))    or   -1 = tan²(x)
                 90 = x           or            √-1 = √tan²(x)
                                                         i = tan(x)
                                                      (No Solution)

2. sin(x)[tan(x)cos(x) - cot(x)cos(x)] = 1 - 2cos²(x)
              sin(x)[sin(x) - cos(x)cot(x)] = 1 - cos²(x) - cos²(x)
   sin(x)[sin(x)] - sin(x)[cos(x)cot(x)] = sin²(x) - cos²(x)
                               sin²(x) - cos²(x) = sin²(x) - cos²(x)
                                         + cos²(x)              + cos²(x)
                                             sin²(x) = sin²(x)
                                           - sin²(x)  - sin²(x)
                                                     0 = 0

3. 1 + sec²(x)sin²(x) = sec²(x)
           sec²(x)             sec²(x)
      cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1
                    cos²(x) = 1 - sin²(x)
                  √cos²(x) = √(1 - sin²(x))
                     cos(x) = √(1 - sin²(x))
               cos⁻¹(cos(x)) = cos⁻¹(√1 - sin²(x))
                                 x = 0

4. -tan²(x) + sec²(x) = 1
               -1               -1
      tan²(x) - sec²(x) = -1
                    tan²(x) = -1 + sec²
                  √tan²(x) = √(-1 + sec²(x))
                     tan(x) = √(-1 + sec²(x))
            tan⁻¹(tan(x)) = tan⁻¹(√(-1 + sec²(x))
                             x = 0

What is the length of side AC of the triangle?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

AC = 25 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ∠ A = ∠ C then the triangle is isosceles and BC = AB , that is

7x - 1 = 5x + 5 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

2x - 1 = 5 ( add 1 to both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Then

AC = 6x + 7 = 6(3) + 7 = 18 + 7 = 25 units

Which of the following is an equation of the line through (2,3) and (-1,-12)
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

y = 5x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation of a line with two points

y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1

Giving two points

( -4 , 10)(16 , -2)

x_1 = -4

y_1 = 10

x_2 = 16

y_2 = -2

Using the above formula

y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1

-12 - 3 / -1 - 2 = y - 3 / x - 2

-15/-3 = y - 3 /x - 2

Cross multiply

-15(x - 2) = -3(y - 3)

-15x + 30 = -3y + 9

-15x + 30 + 3y - 9 = 0

-15x +30 - 9 + 3y = 0

-15x + 21 + 3y = 0

3y = 15x - 21 ( following y = mx + C

Dividing through by 3 to find y

3y/3 = 15x -21 / 3

y = 15x - 21 / 3

We can still separate

y = 15x / 3 - 21/3

y = 5x - 7

Therefore, the equation of the line is

y = 5x - 7
