Answer:

$17.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackie went to the store and bought 2 1/4 pounds of apples at $5 per pound

1 pounds = $5

2 1/4 pounds = x

x = 2 1/4 × $5

x = 9/4 × $5

x = $45/4

x = $11.25

9 pounds of pears at $2.35 per pound.

1 pound = $2.35

9 pounds = x

x = 9 × $2.35

x = $21.15

Total amount that she spent =

$11.25 + $21.15

= $32.40

If she paid with a $50 bill, how much change did she receive?

The change she received =

$50 - $32.40

= $17.60

Show tan(???? − ????) = tan(????)−tan(????) / 1+tan(????) tan(????)<br> .
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

See the proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we need to proof the following identity:

tan(x-y) = \frac{tan(x) -tan(y)}{1+ tan(x) tan(y)}

We need to begin with the definition of tangent:

tan (x) =\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}

So we can replace into our formula and we got:

tan(x-y) = \frac{sin(x-y)}{cos(x-y)}   (1)

We have the following identities useful for this case:

sin(a-b) = sin(a) cos(b) - sin(b) cos(a)

cos(a-b) = cos(a) cos(b) + sin (a) sin(b)

If we apply the identities into our equation (1) we got:

tan(x-y) = \frac{sin(x) cos(y) - sin(y) cos(x)}{sin(x) sin(y) + cos(x) cos(y)}   (2)

Now we can divide the numerator and denominato from expression (2) by \frac{1}{cos(x) cos(y)} and we got this:

tan(x-y) = \frac{\frac{sin(x) cos(y)}{cos(x) cos(y)} - \frac{sin(y) cos(x)}{cos(x) cos(y)}}{\frac{sin(x) sin(y)}{cos(x) cos(y)} +\frac{cos(x) cos(y)}{cos(x) cos(y)}}

And simplifying we got:

tan(x-y) = \frac{tan(x) -tan(y)}{1+ tan(x) tan(y)}

And this identity is satisfied for all:

(x-y) \neq \frac{\pi}{2} +n\pi
