Answer:

Proved See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Man this one is a world of its own :D Just a quick question are you a fellow Add Math student in O levels i remember this question from back in the day :D Anyhow Lets get started

For this question we need to know the following identities:

1+tan^{2}x=sec^2x\\\\1+cot^2x=cosec^2x\\\\sin^2x+cos^2x=1

Lets solve the bottom most part first:

1-\frac{1}{1-sec^2x} \\\\

Take LCM

1-\frac{1}{1-sec^2x} \\\\\frac{1-sec^2x-1}{1-sec^2x} \\\\\frac{-sec^2x}{1-sec^2x} \\\\\frac{-(1+tan^2x)}{-tan^2x}

now break the LCM

\frac{-1}{-tan^2x}+\frac{-tan^2x}{-tan^2x}\\\\\frac{1}{tan^2x}+1\\\\cot^2x+1

because 1/tan = cot x

and furthermore,

cot^2x+1\\cosec^2x

now we solve the above part and replace the bottom most part that we solved with cosec^2x

\frac{1}{1-\frac{1}{cosec^2x} } \\\\\frac{1}{1-sin^2x} \\\\\frac{1}{cos^2x}\\\\sec^2x

Hence proved! :D

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-2,-3) and is perpenicular to 2X -3Y= 6
Rufina [12.5K]
You should first of all rewrite the equation in slope intercept form. You should get y=2/3x-2. The perpendicular slope is the opposite reciprocal, in this case -3/2. You will use this slope and the point to write your equation in point slope form and then clean this up to get it into slope intercept form. You should get y=-3/2x-6

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The test statistic needed to evaluate the claim is t = -1.08.

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic is:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the expected value of the mean, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

At a certain university, the average attendance at basketball games has been 3125. The athletic director claims that the attendance is the same as last year.

This means that \mu = 3125

Due to the dismal showing of the team this year, the attendance for the first 9 games has averaged only 2915 with a standard deviation of 585.

This means that n = 9, X = 2915, s = 585

What is the test statistic needed to evaluate the claim?

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{2915 - 3125}{\frac{585}{\sqrt{9}}}

t = -1.08

The test statistic needed to evaluate the claim is t = -1.08.
