First we will convert those radian angles to degrees, since my mind works better with degrees. Let's work one at a time. First,

. If we start at the positive x-axis and measure out 315 we end up in the 4th quadrant with a reference angle of 45 with the positive x-axis. The side across from the reference angle is -1, the side adjacent to the angle is 1, and the hypotenuse is sqrt2. The cotangent of this angle, then is 1/-1 which is -1. As for the second one, converting radians to degrees gives us that

. Sweeping out that angle has us going around the origin more than once and ending up in the first quadrant with a reference angle of 30° with the positive x-axis. The side across from the angle is 1, the side adjacent to the angle is √3, and the hypotenuse is 2. Therefore, the secant of that angle is 2/√3.
Since both are equivalent to y, the equations must be equivalent.
x^2-x-3= -3x+5
x^2+2x-8=0
(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4, x=2
Plug the values of x in to either equation
y=-3(-4)+5
y= 12+5
y=17
y= -3(2)+5
y=-6+5
y=-1
Final answer: (-4,17) and (2,-1)
1) Distribute
2x + 28x + 21
2) Combine like terms
30x + 21
Since there are no more like terms, 30x and 21 cannot be combined. Therefore, the answer is 30x+ 21
1 penny is just 1c
one nickel is 5 pennies or 5c
alrite...
p = amount of pennies in the jar
n = amount of nickels in the jar
we know there are 56 coins in the jar, thus whatever "p" and "n" are,
p + n = 56
we also know, the total value of all pennies and nickels is one buck and 52 cents, or 1.52.. that's 152 pennies.
now, we know there are 5 pennies in one nickel, so in "n" nickels, there are 5*n pennies, or 5n, thus
p + 5n = 152

solve for "p", to see how many penny coins are there.
what about the nickels? well, n = 56 - p.
