Answer:

180 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = total number of pages

Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday

2/15x + 1/3x + 2/9x

= (6x+15x+10x)/45

= 31/45x

Thursday

x - 31/45x

= (45x-31x)/45

= 14/45x

3/4 of 14/45x

= 3/4 * 14/45x

= 42/180x

Total pages read = 31/45x + 42/180x

= (124x+42x)/180

= 166/180x

If he still has 14 pages left to read on Friday

Total read from Monday to Thursday + Friday

x = 166/180x + 14

x - 166/180x = 14

(180x-166x)/180 = 14

14/180x = 14

x = 14 ÷ 14/180

x = 14 × 180/14

x = 180 pages

I'm assuming bridge of nose is just midway between the eyes. So if the cat's right eye is 3 inches from the bridge, then the left eye is 3 inches from the bridge. So the cat's left eye is 6 inches from its right eye.

Brainliest if your right and if it lets me Find the area of the blue sector. Please Can I Get Some Help! (^_^)

Contact [7]

Let's see

Area of sector

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{\theta}{360}\pi r^2$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{150}{360}\pi (4)²$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{5}{12}\pi (16)$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{5}{3}\pi(4)$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \dfrac{20\pi}{3}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 20.9cm²$

Identify the graph of the inequality 2(2x - 1) + 7 < 13 or -2x + 55-10.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The answer is the last one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, look at the first inequality and we get $4x+5$ , so $x$ . In the second inequality, we have $15\leq 2x$ , so $x\ge 7.5$ . Together, we know that the answer is the last one.

Solve this trigonometry question too, please by an easy method.

Anton [14]

Answer:

proof given below

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine the fractions by making the denominators the same:

$\dfrac{\sin \theta}{1+ \cos \theta}+\dfrac{1+ \cos \theta}{ \sin \theta}$

$=\dfrac{\sin \theta}{1+ \cos \theta} \cdot \dfrac{\sin \theta}{\sin \theta}+\dfrac{1+ \cos \theta}{ \sin \theta} \cdot \dfrac{1+ \cos \theta}{1+ \cos \theta}$

$=\dfrac{\sin \theta(\sin \theta)}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}+\dfrac{(1+ \cos \theta)(1+ \cos \theta)}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}$

$= \dfrac{\sin^2 \theta}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)} +\dfrac{1+2 \cos \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}$

$= \dfrac{\sin^2 \theta+ \cos^2 \theta+1+2 \cos \theta }{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}$

Use the trigonometric identity $\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta=1$ :

$= \dfrac{1+1+2 \cos \theta}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}$

$= \dfrac{2+2 \cos \theta}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}$

Factor out 2 from the numerator:

$= \dfrac{2(1+ \cos \theta)}{\sin \theta(1+ \cos \theta)}$

Cancel the common factor:

$= \dfrac{2}{\sin \theta}$

$\textsf{Use the identity} \quad\csc \theta=\dfrac{1}{\sin \theta}:$

$=2 \csc \theta$

Hence proved.
