Step-by-step explanation:

10 + 15k

Factor out the greatest common factor 5

5( 2+3k)

Rewriting

5(3k+2)

Rami is correct if a=2 then his expression is 5(3k+2)

Kenneth

yk+6+8k+4

Add the terms together

k(y+8) + 10

If y =7 then Kenneth is correct otherwise he is incorrect

Answer: 278.18

sorry if it's wrong

Step-by-step explanation: if you divide 255 by 11 you get 23.18181818181

so if you simplify you get 23.18 so that is the tax plus the original payment which is 278.18

Given that cot θ = 1/√5, what is the value of (sec²θ - cosec²θ)/(sec²θ + cosec²θ) ?

Bogdan [553]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathsf{Given :\;\dfrac{{sec}^2\theta - co{sec}^2\theta}{{sec}^2\theta + co{sec}^2\theta}}$

$\bigstar\;\;\textsf{We know that : \large\boxed{\mathsf{{sec}\theta = \dfrac{1}{cos\theta}}}}$

$\bigstar\;\;\textsf{We know that : \large\boxed{\mathsf{co{sec}\theta = \dfrac{1}{sin\theta}}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{cos^2\theta} - \dfrac{1}{sin^2\theta}}{\dfrac{1}{cos^2\theta} + \dfrac{1}{sin^2\theta}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{\dfrac{sin^2\theta - cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta.cos^2\theta}}{\dfrac{sin^2\theta + cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta.cos^2\theta}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{sin^2\theta - cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta + cos^2\theta}}$

Taking sin²θ common in both numerator & denominator, We get :

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{sin^2\theta\left(1 - \dfrac{cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta}\right)}{sin^2\theta\left(1 + \dfrac{cos^2\theta}{sin^2\theta}\right)}}$

$\bigstar\;\;\textsf{We know that : \large\boxed{\mathsf{cot\theta = \dfrac{cos\theta}{sin\theta}}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{1 -cot^2\theta}{1 + cot^2\theta}}$

$\mathsf{Given :\;cot\theta = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{1 - \left(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\right)^2}{1 + \left(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\right)^2}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{1 - \dfrac{1}{5}}{1 + \dfrac{1}{5}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{\dfrac{5 - 1}{5}}{\dfrac{5 + 1}{5}}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{5 - 1}{5 + 1}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{4}{6}}$

$\mathsf{\implies \dfrac{2}{3}}$

Hence, option (a) 2/3 is your correct answer.
