Answer:

The solution of the system of the equations is (2, 1) ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the system of equations

∵ 3x + 2y = 8 ⇒ (1)

∵ 5x + 2y = 12 ⇒ (2)

→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)

∴ (5x - 3x) + (2y - 2y) = (12 - 8)

∴ 2x + 0 = 4

∴ 2x = 4

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 2

→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or (2) to find y

∵ 3(2) + 2y = 8

∴ 6 + 2y = 8

→ Subtract 6 from both sides

∵ 6 - 6 + 2y = 8 - 6

∴ 2y = 2

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find y

∴ y = 1

∴ The solution of the system of the equations is (2, 1)

Trigonometric identities assignment 4

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Answer: choice D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trigonometric Functions

We need to recall some properties and definitions of the trigonometric functions.

$\displaystyle \tan \theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}$

$\displaystyle \sec \theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}$

We need to simplify the following expression:

$5\sin\theta\sec\theta$

Substituting the identity for the secant:

$\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\sin\theta.\frac{1}{\cos\theta}$

Operating:

$\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}$

Substituting the definition of the tangent:

$\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\tan\theta$

Correct choice D.

Rick bought 3 shirts for $18 each, 2 pair of socks for $3.99 a pair, and a pair of slacks, for $45.00. The sales tax is 8.5%. Ho

ivolga24 [154]

Price of 3 shirts=$18*3=$54
Price of 2 pair of socks=2*$3.99=$7.98
Price of a pair of slack=$45
Total amount- $54+$7.98+ $45-$106.98
Sales tax rate = 8.5%
8.5% of total amount-8.5% of $106.98=
(8.5/100)*106.98-9.0933
Total amount Rick paid=$106.98+9.0933=$116.0733

Express 9/10 in simplest form.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

9/10 in simpliest form is 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to simplify a fraction there must be:

1. A number that will divide evenly into both the numerator and denominator so it can be reduced. No such number exists for 9 and 10.

2. The numerator must be greater than the denominator, (an improper fraction), so it can be converted to a mixed number. 9 is not greater than 10.

9/10 as a decimal: 0.9

9/10 as a percent: 90%
