60*(1-x)=36
60-60x=36
-60x=36-60
-60x=-24
x=24/60
x=4/10
x=2/5
x=0.4

36 is 40% less than 60

Verify which of the following are identities.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Only the second equation is an identity

Step-by-step explanation:

$8 \frac{\tan^2(\theta)}{\sec(\theta)} \csc^2(\theta)=8 \csc(\theta)$

<u>Note that </u>

\tan^2(\theta)\csc^2(\theta)=\sec^2(\theta)

<u>You can confirm it: </u>

$\frac{\sin^2(\theta)}{\cos^2(\theta)}\cdot    \frac{1}{\sin^2(\theta)}= \frac{1}{cos^2(\theta)}= \sec^2(\theta)$

<u>Therefore</u>

$8 \frac{\sec^2(\theta)}{\sec(\theta)} =8 \csc(\theta)$

$8 \frac{\sec(\theta)}{1} =8 \csc(\theta)$

8\sec(\theta)=8\csc(\theta)

<h2>It is not an Identity</h2>

<u>Let's the second one</u>

$13 \frac{\tan^2(\theta)}{\sec(\theta)} \csc^2(\theta)=13\sec(\theta)$

In this case, we already performed the calculations, so it is true. It is an Identity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Call the number n. Write the problem as an equation:

\frac{7+n}{8-n}=4\\7+n=(8-n)4=32-4n\\5n = 25\\n=5

The number is 5.

I made 12 dog treats using 1 cup of peanut butter. If I want to make 36 dog treats, how much peanut butter will I need? Write a
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

You will need 3 cups peanut butter to  make 36 dogs treats.

Peanut butter Cup  :  The dog treats made =  1: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

12 dog treats  = 1 cup  

So, by UNITARY METHOD

1 dog treat = (1/12) cup

So, 36 dog treats = 36 x (1/12) cup = 3 cups

So, you will need 3 cups peanut butter to  make 36 dogs treats.

If 1 cup = 12 Dog Treats

then 1 x 3 cup = 12 x 3 dog treats

or, 3 Cups = 36 dog treats

The ratio of the Peanut butter cup  :  The dog treats made =  1: 12
