Answer:

18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the time (T) varies directly as the number of spectators (S) and varies inversely as number of open exits (E).

Hence:

T ∝ S; T ∝ 1 / E

Let k be the constant of proportionality. This gives:

T = kS / E

when T = 12 minutes, S = 20000, E = 20. Hence:

12 = k(20000) / 20

20000k = 240

k = 12 / 1000

This gives:

T = \frac{12}{1000}(\frac{S}{E} )

When  S = 36000, E = 24, we are to calculate the time (T):

T=\frac{12}{1000} (\frac{36000}{24} )=18\\

T = 18 minutes

Find cot theta if 180° < theta < 270° and cos theta = - sqrt 3/2
avanturin [10]

Answer:

cot theta = -√3

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given that  cos theta = - √3/2 within the range 180° < theta < 270° and

since cos theta = adj/hyp

adj = - √3

hyp = 2

Get the opposite using the pythagoras theorem

hyp^2 = opp^2 + adj^2

2² = opp² + (-√3)²

4 = opp² + 3

opp² = 4-3

opp² = 1

opp = 1

tan theta = opp/adj

tan theta = - 1/√3

Recall that cot theta = 1/tan theta

cot theta = 1/(-1/√3)

cot theta = -√3
