Hello,
Answer A
d :the distance in miles
t: the time in hours
v: the speed in miles/hours (vistesse)
d=v*t
==>d=40*4=160(mi)
d=55*x=160==>x=160/55=2.909090... (mi/(mi/h)=h)≈2.91(hours)
1 and 1/6 is the correct answer because 4/1 multiplied by 1/3 is 4/3. 4/3 multiplied by 7/8 is 28/24 or 1 and 4/24, which can be simplified down to 1 and 1/6.
Step-by-step explanation:

We start with Left hand side
We know that csc(x) = 1/ sin(x)
So csc(2x) is replaced by 1/sin(2x)

Also we use identity
sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x)

4 divide by 2 is 2
Now we multiply top and bottom by sin(x) because we need tan(x) in our answer



We know that sinx/ cosx = tan(x)
Also 1/ sin(x)= csc(x)
so it becomes 2csc^2(x) tan(x) , Right hand side
Hence verified
