Answer:

t= 20+40c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ray's total cost is always $30 less than Earl's and they charge the same amount per carpet cleaned, the difference is in the amount charged for a house call and to find that amount you have to subtract 30 from the amount Earl's charges:

50-30=20

This means that Ray charges $20 for a house call and $40 per carpet cleaned. According to this, the equation would indicate that the total cost for Ray is equal to the amount he charges for a house call plus the price per carpet cleaned for the number of carpets cleaned, which would be:

t= 20+40c, where:

t is the total cost

c is the number of carpets cleaned

Which equation has the steepest parabola?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Given:

The equations of parabolas in the options.

To find:

The steepest parabola.

Solution:

We know that, if a parabola is defined as

(y-k)=n(x-h)^2

Then, the greater absolute value of n, the steeper the parabola.

It can be written as

\dfrac{1}{n}(y-k)=(x-h)^2

p(y-k)=(x-h)^2

where p=\dfrac{1}{n}, the smaller absolute value of p, the steeper the parabola.

Now, find the value of |p| for eac equation

For option A, |-0.5|=0.5

For option B, |5|=5

For option C, |8|=8

For option D, |-10|=10

Since, the equation is option A has smallest value of |p|, therefore, the equation (x+2)^2=-0.5(y+3) represents the steepest parabola.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Simplify the expression by using a double-angle formula or a half-angle formula. (a) 2 tan(5°) 1 − tan2(5°)
antoniya [11.8K]

The question is related to trigonometry and we have to use the formula of double angle .

Here we use double angle formula of tangent function which is

tan(2x) = \frac{2tan(x)}{1-tan^2(x)}

Given expression is

\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}

Comparing it with double angle formula, we will get x = 5

SO the required expression is equal to

\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}  =tan(2*5 )

\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}  =tan(10 )

So the answer is tan(10) .
