Answer:

$tan \theta = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

$cosec \theta = \frac{hypotenuse }{opposite }$

Given :

$cosec \theta =\frac{\sqrt{17}}{4}\\$

So 4 is the opposite side of theta.

$tan \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

We use the Pythagorean theorem to find for the adjacent side.

$a = \sqrt{17 - 4^2} = \sqrt{17-16} = 1$

$Therefore, \ tan \theta = \frac{4}{1} = 4$

Solution:

Note that:

Given inequality: 12p < 96

Dividing both sides by 12:

12p < 96
=> 12p/12 < 96/12
=> p < 8

Correct option is A.

Simplify the expression -(6 - 4p)

Illusion [34]

Hey there!

The answer to your question is $-6+4p$

Given:

$-(6-4p)$

First, we distribute the negative sign to both terms ( $6$ $and$ $-4p$ ) This would make the $6$ negative and the $-4p$ positive, so we have:
