A boat traveled 150 miles downstream (with the current) and back (against the current). The trip downstream took 10 hours. The t

rip back took 30 hours. What is the speed of the boat (b) in still water? What is the speed of the current (c)?

Answer:

b= 10 miles/hr and c= 5 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let it's downstream and upstream speed be d and u respectively

also speed of the boat be b and speed of stream be c.

as per question d = 150/10= 15 miles/hr

and, u= 150/30= 5 miles/hr

also we know d= b+c = 15.....i and u = b-c= 5....ii

solving i and ii we get b= 10 miles/hr and c= 5 miles/hr

(\tan ^(2)\theta \cos ^(2)\theta -1)/(1+\cos (2\theta ))=
Vitek1552 [10]

(tan²(<em>θ</em>) cos²(<em>θ</em>) - 1) / (1 + cos(2<em>θ</em>))

Recall that

tan(<em>θ</em>) = sin(<em>θ</em>) / cos(<em>θ</em>)

so cos²(<em>θ</em>) cancels with the cos²(<em>θ</em>) in the tan²(<em>θ</em>) term:

(sin²(<em>θ</em>) - 1) / (1 + cos(2<em>θ</em>))

Recall the double angle identity for cosine,

cos(2<em>θ</em>) = 2 cos²(<em>θ</em>) - 1

so the 1 in the denominator also vanishes:

(sin²(<em>θ</em>) - 1) / (2 cos²(<em>θ</em>))

Recall the Pythagorean identity,

cos²(<em>θ</em>) + sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 1

which means

sin²(<em>θ</em>) - 1 = -cos²(<em>θ</em>):

-cos²(<em>θ</em>) / (2 cos²(<em>θ</em>))

Cancel the cos²(<em>θ</em>) terms to end up with

(tan²(<em>θ</em>) cos²(<em>θ</em>) - 1) / (1 + cos(2<em>θ</em>)) = -1/2

3 sin(x) + 3 = sin(x)
kumpel [21]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

3 sin x+3=sin x

3 sin x-sin x=-3

2 sin x=-3

sin x=-3/2

which is impossible as |sin x|≤ 1

What is the standard form of the following equation?
scZoUnD [109]

y = 2(x - 1)² + 4

y = 2(x² - 2x + 1) + 4

y = 2x² - 4x + 2 + 4

y = 2x² - 4x + 6
