Bella is learning to type. She typed a letter to her teacher but misspelled 8 words. If she misspelled 25% of the words she type
1 answer:
Answer:
She typed 32 words in her letter
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the letter has x words
∵ She typed x words in her letter
∵ She misspelled 8 words
∵ She misspelled 25% of the words she typed
∴ She misspelled 25% of x
→ That means 8 is equivalent to 25% of x
∴ 25% of x = 8
∴ 25% × x = 8
→ Change 25% to decimal by divide it by 100
∵ 25% = 25 ÷ 100 = 0.25
∴ 0.25 × x = 8
∴ 0.25x = 8
→ Divide both sides by 0.25
∵ =
∴ x = 32
∵ x represents the number of words that she typed in the letter
∴ She typed 32 words in her letter

Answer:
- sin(x) = 1
- cos(x) = 0
- cot(x) = 0
- csc(x) = 1
- sec(x) = undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent function can be considered to be the ratio of the sine and cosine functions:
tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)
It will be undefined where cos(x) = 0. The values of x where that occurs are odd multiples of π. The smallest such multiple is x=π/2. The value of the sine function there is positive: sin(π/2) = 1.
The corresponding trig function values are ...
tan(x) = undefined (where sin(x) >0)
sin(x) = 1
cos(x) = 0
__
And the reciprocal function values at x=π/2 are ...
cot(x) = 0 . . . . . . 1/tan(x)
csc(x) = 1 . . . . . . .1/sin(x)
sec(x) = undefined . . . . . 1/cos(x)
