Answer:

width = 1 units

Length= 4 2/3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to multiply the original width of the pencil by the percent decrease in decimal form (divided by 100).

1.5 x ([66 2/3] /100) =1.5 ([2/3]/100) =1 unit

Same process for the length:

7 x ([66 2/3] /100) =7 ([2/3]/100)= 4 2/3 unit

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

How do I simplify (tanx/1+secx) + (1+secx/tanx)
Ket [755]
Tan x /(1 +sec x) + (1+sec x) /tan x

Tan x=sin x / cos x
1+ sec x=1 +1/cos x=(cos x+1)/cos x

Therefore:
tan x /(1 +sec x) =(sin x/cos x)/(cos x+1)/cos x=
=(sin x * cos x) / [cos x* (cos x+1)]=sin x /(Cos x+1)

(1+sec x) /tan x=[(cos x+1)/cos x] / (sin x/cos x)=
=[cos x(cos x+1)]/(sin x *cos x)=(cos x+1)/sin x

tan x /(1 +sec x) + (1+sec x) /tan x=
=sin x /(Cos x+1) + (cos x+1)/sin x=
=(sin²x+cos²x+2 cos x+1) / [sin x(cos x+1)]=

Remember: sin²x+cos²x=1⇒ sin²x=1-cos²x

=(1-cos²x+cos²x+2 cos x+1) / [sin x(cos x+1)]=
=2 cos x+2 /  [sin x(cos x+1)]=
=2(cos x+1) /  [sin x(cos x+1)]=
=2 /sin x

Answer : tan x /(1 +sec x) + (1+sec x) /tan x= 2/sin x

Why are the elements placed into groups/families?
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows on the periodic table are called periods.

What is the area of the figure?
RUDIKE [14]
The area formula for rectangles is lxw. To solve, I would divide the figure up into 3 rectangles- top,middle and bottom, then find the areas and add them together.

Top: 4x13=52 cm^2
Middle: 5x8=40 cm^2
Bottom: 21x10=210 cm^2

(5 is the width of the middle piece. You get it from subtracting. 21-8-8=5. 13 is the width of the top piece. 5+8=13)

52+40+210
=302 cm^2
So your answer is 302 square centimetres.
