Use algebra.

Let the number of stickers each had in the beginning = x stickers.

Ray lost 10 we represent this by

x - 10 ( = no. stickers he has now)

Tom bought 200 so the number of stickers he now has

= x + 200

Rays has 1/4 as much as Tom so we can now create the equation

1/4(x + 200) = x - 10

Soling for x:-

1/4 x + 50 = x - 10

60 = 3/4 x

x = 60 * 4/3 = 80

Answer they had 80 stickers at first.

2/10 + 7 = 10<br> two over 10 plus 7 equals 10<br> pls help me solve the enquality

koban [17]

If this is a true or false question, it’s false because 2/10 + 7 ≠ 10. the correct inequality would be 2/10 + 7 = 12.

Given: cosθ= -4/5 , sin x = -12/13 , θ is in the third quadrant, and x is in the fourth quadrant; evaluate tan 1/2 θ

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're looking for what the half angle of the tangent of theta is, I'm a bit confused as to why you think the angle in the 4th quadrant, x, is relevant. But maybe you don't know it isn't and it's a "trick" to throw you off. Hmm...

Anyways, the half angle identity for tangent is

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{sin\theta}{1+cos\theta}$

There are actually 3 identities for the tangent of a half angle, but this one works just as well as either of the others do, so I'm going with this one.

If theta is in QIII, the value of -4 goes along the x axis and the hypotenuse is 5. That makes the missing side, by Pythagorean's Theorem, -3. Filling in our formula:

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{-\frac{3}{5} }{1+(-\frac{4}{5}) }$ which simplifies a bit to
