Answer:

Robert is 17 years old

Kent is 13 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, let's say that Robert is X years old, and Kent is X - 5 Years old, since he is 5 years younger. Since their ages together add up 39 years old, set these values next to one another.

x + x + 5 = 39

Add Like Terms

2x + 5 = 39

Cancel out the 5

2x = 34

Divide by 2

x = 17

With this, x is 17. This means that Robert is 17 years old since his age was x. With Kent he is 13 years old since 17 - 5 = 13.

1.<br> What is the unit price of shampoo if a<br> 15-ounce bottle costs $2.79?
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

  • $2.79 per bottle
  • $0.186 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

When you talk about "unit price," you need to define the unit of interest. Unit prices on grocery store shelves don't always use the same unit, even for like items. Here it might be convenient to use any of the following as the "unit":

  • 1 bottle
  • 1 ounce
  • 1 pint (16 ounces)
  • 1 cup (8 ounces)

The "unit price" is computed as ...

  unit price = (price for some number of units)/(the number of units)

The "number of units" may be larger, smaller, or equal to 1.

Then the price per cup (8 ounces) would be ...

  unit price = (price for 15 oz)/(15/8 cups) = ($2.79)(8/15)

  = $1.488 per cup

__

The price per ounce would be ...

  unit price = ($2.79)/(15 oz) = $0.186/oz

__

We assume that the unit of interest is probably 1 ounce, but it could be something else. Your grader may expect the value to be rounded to the nearest cent, $0.19 per ounce.

Sedbober [7]
1/2 / 4

The formula = keep, change, flip

Keep 1/2
Change the sign: / to ×
Flip 4 to 1/4

That equals 1/2 × 1/4 = 1/16

Answer = 1/16

Hope this helped☺☺

Answer:  see proof below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given: A + B + C = π               → A = π - (B + C)

                                               → B = π - (A + C)

                                               → C = π - (A + B)

Use Sum to Product Identity: sin A - sin B = 2 cos [(A + B)/2] · sin [(A - B)/2]

Use the following Cofunction Identity: cos (π/2 - A) = sin A

<u>Proof LHS → RHS:</u>

LHS:                        sin A - sin B + sin C

                             = (sin A - sin B) + sin C

\text{Sum to Product:}\quad 2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}2{}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

\text{Given:}\qquad 2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -(B+C)}{2}+\dfrac{B}{2}}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}2{}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -C}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}2{}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

.\qquad \qquad =2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi}{2} -\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}2{}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

\text{Cofunction:} \qquad 2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+2\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}2{}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

\text{Factor:}\qquad 2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\bigg[ \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\bigg]

\text{Given:}\qquad 2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\bigg[ \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi -(A+B)}{2}\bigg)\bigg]\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad =2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\bigg[ \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+\cos \bigg(\dfrac{\pi}{2} -\dfrac{(A+B)}{2}\bigg)\bigg]

\text{Cofunction:}\qquad 2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\bigg[ \sin \bigg(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\bigg)+\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\bigg)\bigg]

\text{Sum to Product:}\qquad 2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\bigg[ 2\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A}{2}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{B}{2}\bigg)\bigg]\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad =4\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A}{2}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{B}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)

\text{LHS = RHS:}\quad 4\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A}{2}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{B}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)=4\sin \bigg(\dfrac{A}{2}\bigg)\cdot \cos \bigg(\dfrac{B}{2}\bigg)\cdot \sin \bigg(\dfrac{C}{2}\bigg)\quad \checkmark
