Answer:

The number is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n. Increasing this by 30 results in n + 30. Tripling this result results in 3(n + 30) = 141.

Multiplying as indicated: 3n + 90 = 141, or

3n = 51

Solving for n, we get n = 51/3 = 17

Answer:

The original number is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(x+30)=141\\\\\frac{3(x+30)}{3}=\frac{141}{3}\\\\x+30=47\\\\x+30-30=47-30\\\\x=17$

Answer: $\bold{\dfrac{cot(x)}{sin(x)}}$

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

Convert everything to "sin" and "cos" and then cancel out the common factors.

$\dfrac{cot(x)+csc(x)}{sin(x)+tan(x)}\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg(\dfrac{sin(x)}{1}+\dfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg[\dfrac{sin(x)}{1}\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)+\dfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg]\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg(\dfrac{sin(x)cos(x)}{cos(x)}+\dfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)$

$\text{Simplify:}\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)+1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\div\bigg(\dfrac{sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)}{cos(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Multiply by the reciprocal (fraction rules)}:\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)+1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)+sin(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{Factor out the common term on the right side denominator}:\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)+1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)(cos(x)+1)}\bigg)$

$\text{Cross out the common factor of (cos(x) + 1) from the top and bottom}:\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times\bigg(\dfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}\bigg)\\\\\\\bigg(\dfrac{1}{sin(x)}\bigg)\times cot(x)}\qquad \rightarrow \qquad \dfrac{cot(x)}{sin(x)}$
