Answer:

3/10 of the aquarium are yellow tangs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in an aquarium 2/5 of the fish or surgeonfish and of these, 3/4 are yellow tangs, to determine what fraction of all fish in the aquarium are yellow tangs the following calculation must be performed:

2/5 = 0.40

0.40 x 3/4 = X

1.20 / 4 = X

0.30 = X

0.30 = 3/10

Therefore 3/10 of the aquarium are yellow tangs.

Answer:

cos2t/cos²t

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given trigonometric expression to us is ,

$\longrightarrow \dfrac{cos^4t - sin^4t }{cos^2t }$

We can write the numerator as ,

$\longrightarrow \dfrac{ (cos^2t)^2-(sin^2t)^2}{cos^2t }$

Recall the identity ,

$\longrightarrow (a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2$

Using this we have ,

$\longrightarrow \dfrac{(cos^2t + sin^2t)(cos^2t-sin^2t)}{cos^2t}$

Again , as we know that ,

$\longrightarrow sin^2\phi + cos^2\phi = 1$

Therefore we can rewrite it as ,

$\longrightarrow \dfrac{1(cos^2t - sin^2t)}{cos^2t}$

Again using the first identity mentioned above ,

$\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{\dfrac{(cost + sint )(cost - sint)}{cos^2t}}}$

Or else we can also write it using ,

$\longrightarrow cos2\phi = cos^2\phi - sin^2\phi$

Therefore ,

$\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{\dfrac{cos2t}{cos^2t}}}$

And we are done !

We can rewrite cos 2x as ,

$\longrightarrow cos(x + x )$

As we know that ,

$\longrightarrow cos(y + z )= cosy.cosz - siny.sinz$

So that ,

$\longrightarrow cos(x+x) = cos(x).cos(x) - sin(x)sin(x)$

On simplifying,

$\longrightarrow cos(x+x) = cos^2x - sin^2x$

Hence,

$\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{cos (2x) = cos^2x - sin^2x }}$

Find the equation of the line that passes through the point of intersection of x + 2y = 9 and 4x -2y = -4 and the point of inter

Rudik [331]

Answer:

$y=-6x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of intersection of

$x+2y=9...eqn1$

and

$4x-2y=-4...eqn2$

is the solution of the two equations.

We add equation (1) and equation(2) to get,

$x+4x+2y-2y=9+-4$

$\Rightarrow 5x=5$

$\Rightarrow x=1$

We put $x=1$ into equation (1) to get,

$1+2y=9$

$\Rightarrow 2y=9-1$

$\Rightarrow 2y=8$

$\Rightarrow y=4$

Therefore the line passes through the point, $(1,4)$ .

The line also passes through the point of intersection of

$3x-4y=14...eqn(3)$

and

$3x+7y=-8...eqn(4)$

We subtract equation (3) from equation (4) to obtain,

$3x-3x+7y--4y=-8-14$

$\Rightarrow 11y=-22$

$\Rightarrow y=-2$

We substitute this value into equation (4) to get,

$3x+7(-2)=-8$

$3x-14=-8$

$3x=-8+14$

$3x=6$

$x=2$

The line also passes through

$(2,-2)$

The slope of the line is

$slope=\frac{4--2}{1-2} =\frac{6}{-1}=-6$

The equation of the line is

$y+2=-6(x-2)$

$y+2=-6x+12$

$y=-6x+10$ is the required equation
