Answer:

The sales price of the skirt was $14.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you know that the total for the three items is $32.35 which is:

x+y+z=32.35

x is a skirt

y is a pair of shoes

z is a pair of socks

Also, you know that the pair of socks costs $3.75, so you can replace the value of z and subtract this from the total amount to have the price of the skirt plus the pair of shoes:

x+y+3.75=32.35

x+y=32.35-3.75

x+y=28.6

Now, as the original prices of the skirt and shoes were the same and you know that the sum of the two items is equal to $28.6, you can divide this by 2:

$28.6/2=$14.3

According to this, the answer is that the sales price of the skirt was $14.3.

Given sec(theta)= 5... find cot(90-theta)
Mumz [18]
\sec(\theta)=\frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}
\\
\\\cos(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sec(\theta)}=\frac{1}{5}
\\
\\ \sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta=1
\\
\\\sin\theta= \sqrt{1-\cos^2\theta}= \sqrt{1-( \frac{1}{5})^2 }  = \sqrt{1- \frac{1}{25} } = \sqrt{ \frac{25}{25} -\frac{1}{25} }=\frac { \sqrt{24}}{5} 
\\
\\ \cot(90^o-\theta)=\tan{\theta}= \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta} = \frac{\frac { \sqrt{24}}{5} }{ \frac{1}{5} } = \sqrt{24} = \sqrt{4\times6}=2 \sqrt{6}

If your question is how many positions are possible, then the answer is 24.

We find this by thinking of how many people can be in each spot. If there are 4 spots each person can stand (back left, back right, front left, front right), then there are 4 possible choice for the first spot (mom, dad, son, daughter), then 3 for the next spot (since 1 is already in a spot), then 2 options for the next spot, and then 1 option for the last spot. In other words, the answer is 4x3x2x1, or 4 factorial.
