Gemiola [76]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

20% discount

Step-by-step explanation:

300 - 240 = 60

60 / 300 = 0.20

0.20 × 100 = 20

5. Priya mixes 2..5 cups of water with 1/3 cup or orange juice concentrate. Diego mixes 1 2/3 cups of water with 1/4 cup or oran
Snowcat [4.5K]

Priya needs 13⅓ cups of orange juice

Diego 15 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

......................................................................................................................

Priya

......................................................................................................................

Cup of water = 2½

Cup of orange = ⅓

If 2½ cups of water requires ½ cup of orange juice concentrate

Then 100 cups of water would require x cup of orange

Representing the above statement mathematically

2½ : ⅓ = 100 : x

5/2 : 1/3 = 100 : x ------------------Convert ratio sign to division

5/2 ÷⅓ = 100/x

5/2 * 3 = 100/x

15/2 = 100/x ---------------Multiply both sides by x

15/2 * x = 100/x * x

15x/2 = 100 ------------------ Multiply both sides by 2

2 * 15x/2 = 2 * 100

15x = 200 --------------- Divide both sides by 15

x = 200/15

x = 13⅓

So, 13⅓ cups of orange is needed by Priya

......................................................................................................................

Diego

......................................................................................................................

Cup of water = 1⅔

Cup of orange = ¼

If 1⅔ cups of water requires ¼ cup of orange juice concentrate

Then 100 cups of water would require x cup of orange

Representing the above statement mathematically

1⅔:¼ = 100:x

5/3 : ¼ = 100:x

5/3 ÷¼ = 100 ÷ x

5/3 * 4/1 = 100 ÷ x

20/3 =100/x----------------------- Multiply x to both sides

20/3 * x = 100/x * x

20x/3 = 100 ------------------------ Multiply 3 to sides by 3

3 * 20x/3 = 100 * 3

20x = 300 ------------- Divide both sides by 2

20x/20 = 300/20

x = 15

So, 15 cups of orange is needed by Diego

Please help with any of this Im stuck and having trouble with pre calc is it basic triogmetric identities using quotient and rec
german

How I was taught all of these problems is in terms of r, x, and y. Where sin = y/r, cos = x/r, tan = y/x, csc = r/y, sec = r/x, cot = x/y. That is how I will designate all of the specific pieces in each problem.

#3

Let's start with sin here. \frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{5}} Therefore, because sin is y/r, r = \sqrt{5} and y = +2. Moving over to cot, which is x/y, x = -1, and y = 2. We know y has to be positive because it is positive in our given value of sin. Now, to find cos, we have to do x/r.

cos = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{5}} = \frac{-\sqrt{5}}{5}

#4

Let's start with secant here. Secant is r/x, where r (the length value/hypotenuse) cannot be negative. So, r = 9 and x = -7. Moving over to tan, x must still equal -7, and y = 4\sqrt{2}. Now, to find csc, we have to do r/y.

csc = \frac{9}{4\sqrt{2}} = \frac{9\sqrt{2}}{8}

The pythagorean identities are

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1,

1 + cot^2 = csc^2,

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

#5

Let's take a look at the information given here. We know that cos = -3/4, and sin (the y value), must be greater than 0. To find sin, we can use the first pythagorean identity.

sin^2 + (-3/4)^2 = 1

sin^2 + 9/16 = 1

sin^2 = 7/16

sin = \sqrt{7/16} = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4}

Now to find tan using a pythagorean identity, we'll first need to find sec. sec is the inverse/reciprocal of cos, so therefore sec = -4/3. Now, we can use the third trigonometric identity to find tan, just as we did for sin. And, since we know that our y value is positive, and our x value is negative, tan will be negative.

tan^2 + 1 = (-4/3)^2

tan^2 + 1 = 16/9

tan^2 = 7/9

tan = -\sqrt{7/9} = \frac{-\sqrt{7}}{3}

#6

Let's take a look at the information given here. If we know that csc is negative, then our y value must also be negative (r will never be negative). So, if cot must be positive, then our x value must also be negative (a negative divided by a negative makes a positive). Let's use the second pythagorean identity to solve for cot.

1 + cot^2 = (\frac{-\sqrt{6}}{2})^{2}

1 + cot^2 = 6/4

cot^2 = 2/4

cot = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

tan = \sqrt{2}

Next, we can use the third trigonometric identity to solve for sec. Remember that we can get tan from cot, and cos from sec. And, from what we determined in the beginning, sec/cos will be negative.

(\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}})^2 + 1 = sec^2

4/2 + 1 = sec^2

2 + 1 = sec^2

sec^2 = 3

sec = -\sqrt{3}

cos = \frac{-\sqrt{3}}{3}

Hope this helps!! :)

Just a few questions that I need help with.
zvonat [6]
For 1: I used a calcultor I first wanted see how many groups of 24 their are out of 200. So I put in 200 / 24 = 8.33333333  Then I wanted to see the total number of students that have a tablet so I multiplied that 8.33333333 by 6 and got =50. So 50 out of 200 students have an electronic tablet.

2: I just used a calculator: 2.25 * 5 = 11.25 kilometers
