Answer:

Contradictrion

Step-by-step explanation:

First write an equation. If the total is 289, then that goes one the right side of the =. Sociology textbooks will be x. If there were 65 less than x, it will be 65-x. Lets set it up:

x + 65 -x =289

Then combine like terms.

65 = 289

There are no values of x that make the equation true. The input is a contradiction.

Simplify (1 − cos x)(1 + cos x). (2 points)
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

sin²x

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

(1 − cos x)(1 + cos x)=1-cos²x

Remember that

sin²x+cos²x=1 ------> i-cos²x=sin²x

therefore

(1 − cos x)(1 + cos x)=sin²x

A farmer raises cows and chickens. The farmer has a total of 25 animals. One day he counts the legs of all of his animals and co
KengaRu [80]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 25 ...........................(1)

{4x + 2y  =64} / 2    divide the equation by 2

2x + y = 32 ........................(3)

Step Two

subtract (1) from (3)

2x + y = 32

x   + y = 25

x = 7

Therefore from equation 1 we get x + y =  25

but x = 7

7 + y = 25       Subtract 7 from both sides.

y = 25 - 7

y = 18

Check

4*x + 2*y =  64

4*7 + 2*18 =? 64

28 + 36 = ? 64

64 = 64

The checks out to be the right answer.
