Answer:

0.125 miles per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

ran 3 miles: 9.5 min per mi × 3 mi = 28.5 minutes = 28 minutes, 30 seconds How to calculate running speed. Divide your run distance by your run time; If you ran 2.5 miles and you ran for 20 minutes: 2.5 mi ÷ 20 min = 0.125 miles per minute

Smallest to largest 0.8 30% 3/5

rjkz [21]

Change everything to the same thing. See like how 30% is a percent you can move the decimal of 0.8 to make it a percent like 80%, then for 3/5 you divide 3 by 5 and you get 0.6 then you can move the decimal to get 60%. So all you have to do now is order the percentages from smallest to largest. Like so 30%, 60%, 80% which then ends up as 30%, 3/5, 0.8.

Verify the identity (tan x + 1)^2 + (tan x-1)^2= 2 sec^2 x

Elina [12.6K]

$(\tan x+1)^2+(\tan x-1)^2=2\sec^2x\\\\\text{use}\ \tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\\\\L_s=\left(\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}+\dfrac{\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}-\dfrac{\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2\\\\=\left(\dfrac{\sin x+\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\sin x-\cos x}{\cos x}\right)^2\\\\=\dfrac{(\sin x+\cos x)^2}{\cos^2x}+\dfrac{(\sin x-\cos x)^2}{\cos^2x}\\\\\text{use}\ (a\pm b)^2=a^2\pm2ab+b^2$

$=\dfrac{\sin^2x+2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2}{\cos^2x}+\dfrac{\sin^2x-2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2}{\cos^2x}\\\\=\dfrac{\sin^2x+2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2+\sin^2x-2\sin x\cos x+\cos^2}{\cos^2x}\\\\=\dfrac{2\sin^2x+2\cos^2x}{\cos^2x}=\dfrac{2(\sin^2x+\cos^2x)}{\cos^2x}\\\\\text{use}\ \sin^2x+\cos^2x=1\\\\=\dfrac{2(1)}{\cos^2x}=2\cdot\dfrac{1}{\cos^2x}=2\left(\dfrac{1}{\cos x}\right)^2\\\\\text{use}\ \sec x=\dfrac{1}{\cos x}\\\\=2(\sec^2x)=2\sec^2x=R_s\\\\L_s=R_s\Rightarrow The\ identity$
