1. 1 7/8
wait a minute for me to answer number 2
Plotting the data to get the line of best fit, it is:
y<span> = 0.087</span>x<span> + 0.587
substitute x=2030-1980=50,
y = $4.94 is the price in 2030</span>
<span>tan(15) =
sin(15) / cos(15) =
sin(45 - 30) / cos(45 - 30) =
[ sin(45)cos(30) - sin(30)cos(45) ] / [ cos(45)cos(30) + sin(45)sin(30)]
Since sin(45) = cos(45) = √2/2, you can just factor that out from the top and bottom
[ cos(30) - sin(30) ] / [ cos(30) + sin(30)]
[ √3/2 - 1/2 ] / [ √3/2 + 1/2]
(√3 - 1) / (√3 + 1)
(√3 - 1)^2 / (√3+1)(√3 - 1)
(√3 - 1)^2 / (3 - 1)
(3 - 2√3 +1) / 2
2 - √3
There's also a formula for tan(a-b), but I couldn't remember it off hand.</span>
