Answer:  Choice A

\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\

============================================================

Explanation:

Recall that \tan(x) = \frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)} and \cot(x) = \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}. The connection between tangent and cotangent is simply involving the reciprocal

From this, we can say,

\tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)}*\left(\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\right)^2\\\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)}*\frac{\cos^2(\alpha)}{\sin^2(\alpha)}\\\\\\\frac{\sin(\alpha)*\cos^2(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)*\sin^2(\alpha)}\\\\\\\frac{\cos^2(\alpha)}{\cos(\alpha)*\sin(\alpha)}\\\\\\\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\

In the second to last step, a pair of sine terms cancel. In the last step, a pair of cosine terms cancel.

All of this shows why \tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\ is identical to \frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\

Therefore, \tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)=\frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\ is an identity. In mathematics, an identity is when both sides are the same thing for any allowed input in the domain.

You can visually confirm that \tan(\alpha)*\cot^2(\alpha)\\\\ is the same as \frac{\cos(\alpha)}{\sin(\alpha)}\\\\ by graphing each function (use x instead of alpha). You should note that both curves use the exact same set of points to form them. In other words, one curve is perfectly on top of the other. I recommend making the curves different colors so you can distinguish them a bit better.

A professor using an open source introductory statistics book predicts that 10% of the students will purchase a hard copy of the
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: The professor was not accurate with his hypothesis.

Null hypothesis: P1 = 12.5%, P2 = 42.5%, P3 = 45%

The alternate hypothesis: At least one proportion of the student will differ from the others.

Step-by-step explanation: To check if the professors hypothesis were inaccurate.

What percentage of student bought a hard copy of the book.

(25 ÷ 200) × 100 = 12.5%

What percentage of the student printed it from the web.

(85 ÷ 200) × 100 = 42.5%

What percentage of the students read it online.

(90 ÷ 200) × 100 = 45%

This means that the professor was not accurate with his hypothesis. Because the proportion of student in his hypothesis was not the same in the actual.

Therefore; the null hypothesis are

P1 = 12.5%, P2 = 42.5%, P3 = 45%

The alternative hypothesis will state that at least one of the proportion will be different from the others.
