Answer:

Part I: cot(15 degrees) = cot(45 - 30)

Part II: Evaluation is below

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Everything is done in degrees</em>

<em />

Two angles that differ by 15 degrees that is easy to evaluate is 30 degrees and 45 degrees. The cot(15 degrees) = cot(45 - 30) = 1/tan(45-30) = (1+tan45tan30)/(tan30 - tan45) = (1+ sqrt(3))/(sqrt(3) - 1)

We rationalize this by multiplying 1+ sqrt(3) in the top and bottom, getting:

(4 + 2sqrt(3))/2 = 2 + sqrt(3)

I hope this helps! :)

A new car depreciates as soon as you drive it out of the parking lot. A certain car depreciates to half its original value in 4

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Original price of car = $20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the car be 'x' dollars.

Given:

Here, the depreciation of the car is occuring exponentially as the value depreciates to half in every four years.

Worth of car after 8 years = $5000

Value after depreciation in 4 years = Half of original value = $\frac{x}{2}$

So, value of car after depreciation in another 4 years = Half of the value after 4 years = $\frac{1}{2}(\frac{x}{2})=\frac{x}{4}$

Therefore, final depreciated value after 8 years is $\frac{x}{4}$ .

But, as per question, final depreciated value is $5000. Thus,

$\frac{x}{4}=5000\\x=5000\times 4\\x=20000$

Therefore, the original price of the car was $20,000.
