Answer:

64 pies sold

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of cakes sold

y = number of pies sold

Last weekend the bakery sold 118 total items

x + y = 118

Last weekend the bakery earned $1,932.

18x + 15y = 1,932.

Get rid of one of the terms, in this case x.

x + y = 118 becomes

18x + 18y = 2124

Subtract the equations from each other

(18x - 18x) + (18y - 15y) = 2124 - 1932

3y = 192

y = 64

Subsititue y into the orginal qeuation to solve for x and check it's right.

x + 64 = 118

x = 118 - 64 = 54

18(54) + 15(64) = 1932

What is the definite integral of log (tan x) with range from 90 to 0
nasty-shy [4]

Substituting <em>x</em> with <em>π</em>/2 - <em>x</em> gives the equivalent integral,

\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac\pi2}\log(\tan(x))\,\mathrm dx=-\int_{\frac\pi2}^0\log(\cot(x))(-\mathrm dx)=\int_0^{\frac\pi2}\log(\cot(x))\,\mathrm dx

So if we let <em>J</em> denote the value of the integral, we have

J=\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac\pi2}\log(\tan (x))\,\mathrm dx

J=\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac\pi2}\log(\cot (x))\,\mathrm dx

\implies 2J=\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac\pi2}\left(\log(\tan (x))+\log(\cot (x))\right)\,\mathrm dx

Condensing the logarithms, we have

log(tan(<em>x</em>)) + log(cot(<em>x</em>)) = log(tan(<em>x</em>) cot(<em>x</em>)) = log(1) = 0

since cot(<em>x</em>) = 1/tan(<em>x</em>), which means

2J=\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac\pi2}0\,\mathrm dx=0

and so the original integral has a value of <em>J</em> = 0.
