x/.75=x-56/0.4
0.4x=.75x-42
-0.35x=-42
x=120
I set up a proportion in which x=the tank when it is 3/4 full. When the tank is 3/4 full, solving the proportion tells us the x=120 litres. 120/3=40, and 120+40 is 160, showing that a tank completely full would indeed hold 160 litres.
Hope this helps!
7/10 = x/12 which mean you need to multiply each side by 12 to find x. So the answer would be X= 8.4
<span>sinx - cosx =sqrt(2)
Taking square on both sides:
</span>(sinx - cosx)^2 =sqrt(2)^2<span>
sin^2(x) -2cos(x)sin(x) + cos^2(x) = 2
Rearranging the equation:
sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) -2cos(x)sin(x)=2
As,
</span><span>sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) = 1
</span><span>So,
1-2sinxcosx=2
1-1-2sinxcosx=2-1
-</span><span>2sinxcosx = 1
</span><span>Using Trignometric identities:
-2(0.5(sin(x+x)+sin(x-x))=1
-sin2x+sin0=1
As,
sin 0 = 0
So,
sin2x+0 = -1
</span><span>sin2x = -1</span><span>
2x=-90 degrees + t360
Dividing by 2 on both sides:
x=-45 degrees + t180
or 2x=270 degrees +t360
x= 135 degrees + t180 where t is integer</span>
