Answer:

3 65/72

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First make sure the denominators are the same, so multiply the 7/9 by 8/8 and 7/8 by 9/9 since 72 is their common denominator.

18 56/72 - 14 63/72

2) Now subtract

= 3 65/72

If 13cos theta -5=0 find sin theta +cos theta / sin theta -cos theta

Ivahew [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of (sinθ + cosθ)/(sinθ - cosθ), when 13 cosθ - 5 = 0.

$\red{\frak{Given}} \begin{cases} & \sf {13\ cos \theta\ -\ 5\ =\ 0\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \big\lgroup Can\ also\ be\ written\ as \big\rgroup} \\ & \sf {cos \theta\ =\ {\footnotesize{\dfrac{5}{13}}}} \end{cases}$

Here, we're asked to find out the value of (sinθ + cosθ)/(sinθ - cosθ), when 13 cosθ - 5 = 0. In order to find the solution we're gonna use trigonometric ratios to find the value of sinθ and cosθ. Let us consider, a right angled triangle, say PQR.

Where,

PQ = Opposite side
QR = Adjacent side
RP = Hypotenuse
∠Q = 90°
∠C = θ

As we know that, 13 cosθ - 5 = 0 which is stated in the question. So, it can also be written as cosθ = 5/13. As per the cosine ratio, we know that,

$\rightarrow {\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{cos \theta\ =\ \dfrac{Adjacent\ side}{Hypotenuse}}}}}}$

Since, we know that,

cosθ = 5/13
QR (Adjacent side) = 5
RP (Hypotenuse) = 13

So, we will find the PQ (Opposite side) in order to estimate the value of sinθ. So, by using the Pythagoras Theorem, we will find the PQ.

Therefore,

$\red \bigstar {\underline{\underline{\pmb{\sf{According\ to\ Question:-}}}}}$

$\rule{200}{3}$

$\sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ +\ (QR)^2\ =\ (RP)^2} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ +\ (5)^2\ =\ (13)^2} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ +\ 25\ =\ 169} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ =\ 169\ -\ 25} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {(PQ)^2\ =\ 144} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {PQ\ =\ \sqrt{144}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{PQ\ (Opposite\ side)\ =\ 12}}}}_{\sf \blue{\tiny{Required\ value}}}}$

∴ Hence, the value of PQ (Opposite side) is 12. Now, in order to determine it's value, we will use the sine ratio.

$\rightarrow {\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{sin \theta\ =\ \dfrac{Opposite\ side}{Hypotenuse}}}}}}$

Where,

Opposite side = 12
Hypotenuse = 13

Therefore,

$\sf \rightarrow {sin \theta\ =\ \dfrac{12}{13}}$

Now, we have the values of sinθ and cosθ, that are 12/13 and 5/13 respectively. Now, finally we will find out the value of the following.

$\rightarrow {\underline{\boxed{\red{\sf{\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}}}}}}$

By substituting the values, we get,

$\rule{200}{3}$

$\sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ {\footnotesize{\dfrac{\Big( \dfrac{12}{13}\ +\ \dfrac{5}{13} \Big)}{\Big( \dfrac{12}{13}\ -\ \dfrac{5}{13} \Big)}}}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ {\footnotesize{\dfrac{\dfrac{17}{13}}{\dfrac{7}{13}}}}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ \dfrac{17}{13} \times \dfrac{13}{7}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ \dfrac{17}{\cancel{13}} \times \dfrac{\cancel{13}}{7}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{\dfrac{sin \theta\ +\ cos \theta}{sin \theta\ -\ cos \theta}\ =\ \dfrac{17}{7}}}}}_{\sf \blue{\tiny{Required\ value}}}}$

∴ Hence, the required answer is 17/7.

Would it be 6x-3 or 6x^2-3? Composite function

dangina [55]

g(x) = 3x

g(x) = 3( x )

g( f(x) ) = 3( f(x) ) ... replace every x with f(x)

g( f(x) ) = 3( 2x-1 ) .... plug in f(x) = 2x-1

g( f(x) ) = 3( 2x) + 3( -1 ) ... distribute

g( f(x) ) = 6x - 3

You are correct in saying D is the answer

What does DBF equal to ?

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Angle DBF = 92 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, we can see that we can use the triangle mid segment theorem and conclude that all 4 small triangles are congruent to each other. Therefore, all corresponding angles are also congruent to each other. Since DBF and EFC are corresponding angles and we already know that EFC is 92 degrees, DBF must also be 92 degrees.
