Hi there!

Answer:

a=10 and 10=a

Step-by-step explanation:

Addition property of equality is adding the same number to both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

switch sides.

-15+a=10-15

subtract by the numbers. subtract it's should be the found in the difference between the numbers, fractions, and spent.

10-15=-5

-15+a=-5

add 15 both sides of an equation.

-15+a+15=-5+15

simplify.

-5+15=10

15-5=10

10+5=15

15-5=10

a=10 and 10=a

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!

(cotx+cscx)/(sinx+tanx)

Butoxors [25]

Answer: $\bold{\dfrac{cot(x)}{sin(x)}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert everything to "sin" and "cos" and then cancel out the common factors.

$\dfrac{cot(x)+csc(x)}{sin(x)+tan(x)}\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg(\dfrac{sin(x)}{1}+\dfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg[\dfrac{sin(x)}{1}\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)+\dfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg]\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg(\dfrac{sin(x)cos(x)}{cos(x)}+\dfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)$

$\text{Simplify:}\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)+1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg(\dfrac{sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Multiply by the reciprocal (fraction rules)}:\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)+1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Factor out the common term on the right side denominator}:\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)+1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)(cos(x)+1)}\bigg)$

$\text{Cross out the common factor of (cos(x) + 1) from the top and bottom}:\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times cot(x)}\qquad \rightarrow \qquad \dfrac{cot(x)}{sin(x)}$
