Semester 1:

let the number of students in the art class be 2a, and the number of the students in the gym class be 7a. (check: the ratio is 2a:7a = 2:7)

so the total number of students is 9a.


semester 2:

the 9a students are go to the art class and gym class at a a ratio of 5: 4, 

so 5a students go to the art class, and 4a students go to the gym class.



<span>75 students are in art class in second semester means that 5a=75, 

so a=75/5=15.


In the 1st semester the number of students was: 

art class: 2a=2*15=30

gym class: 7a=7*15=105

Sin (3x+19)=Cos(5x-25) <br> What is the value of x? <br> A) 6 <br> B) 12 <br> C) 18 <br> D) 24
malfutka [58]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cofunction identity

sin x = cos(90 - x)

Given

sin(3x + 19) = cos(5x - 25), then

3x + 19 = 90 - (5x - 25)

3x + 19 = 90 - 5x + 25

3x + 19 = 115 - 5x ( add 5x to both sides )

8x + 19 = 115 ( subtract 19 from both sides )

8x = 96 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 12 → B

Someone plz answer i rlly need help Solve for a.<br><br> a+(−1.6)=−3.7
Norma-Jean [14]
Hi there!

All you need to do to solve for a is add 1.6 to both sides of the equation.

It will look like this:
a - 1.6 + 1.6 = -3.7 + 1.6

After this you will see that a = -2.1.

Hope this helps!
When in doubt just replace a with -2.1 and see if you still get -3.7. :)
