Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

we use X to try and find the number to which 7was multiplied

so it's 7x+12=-3

if you cross multiply you will get

<u>7x+12=-3</u>

10

7x+12=-30

-30-(-12)=-42

7x=-42

X=-6

If tan theta =3, find the value of tan theta + tan (theta+pi) + tan (theta +2pi)

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi) = 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$tan\theta = 3$

Required

Find

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi)$

Calculate $tan(\theta + \pi) \ and\ tan(\theta+2\pi)$

Using tan rule

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \frac{tan\theta + tan\pi}{1 - tan\theta tan\pi}$

So:

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \frac{tan\theta + 0}{1 - tan\theta *0}$

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \frac{tan\theta}{1 }$

$tan(\theta + \pi) = \tan\theta$

$tan(\theta+2\pi)$

$tan(\theta + 2\pi) = \frac{tan\theta + tan2\pi}{1 - tan\theta tan2\pi}$

$tan(\theta + 2\pi) = \frac{tan\theta + 0}{1 - tan\theta *0}$

$tan(\theta + 2\pi) = \tan\theta$ '

'So:

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi)$ $= tan\theta +tan\theta +tan\theta$

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi) = 3+3+3$

$tan\theta + tan(\theta + \pi) + tan(\theta+2\pi) = 9$

Chad is eating a 50-gram chocolate bar which contains 30% cocoa. How many grams of cocoa are in the chocolate bar?

Allushta [10]

Answer: 15 grams

If he had 100 grams of candy bar, then 30% of that is 30 grams (since 30/100 = 30%). Cut this in half and we end up with 30/2 = 15.

Another way to find the answer is to multiply 50 and 0.30 which is the decimal form of 30%. So we have 50*0.30 = 15 which is the same answer.
