Answer:

B. seven $1 bills and eight $5 bills.

Step-by-step explanation:

n = number of $1 bills

m = number of $5 bills

 

Given:

 

n + m = 15

n($1) + m($5) = $47

 

Just solve 2 equations in 2 unknowns n and m:

 

(i)  n + m = 15

(ii) n + 5m = 47

 

Subtract (i) from (ii) and get

 

4m = 32

m = 32/4 = 8

 

Then from (i) get

 

n = 15 - m = 15 - 8 = 7

 

There are 7 $1 bills and 8 $5 bills.

*Given
Total number of bills    - 15
Total value of the bills - $47
Bills                             - $1 and $5

*Solution
Let:
  x - number of $1 bills
  y - number of $5 bills

1. The total number of bills comprising of $1 and $5 bills is 15. Thus, 

                         x + y = 15                                      (EQUATION 1)

2. The total value of the bills is $47. Thus, 
 
                   $1 (x) + $5 (y) = $47                           (EQUATION 2)

3. There are 2 ways to solve this (system of linear equations) mathematically. You can use the elimination method or the substitution method. Using the elimination method to eliminate the variable x... (subtract Equation 1 from Equation 2)

                    1x      +   5y      = 47
                 _
                    <u> x       +     y      = 15</u>
                     0       +   4y      = 32

4. Thus, the value of y, which is the number of $5 bills is, 

                    <u> 4y </u>      =  <u> </u><span><u>32 </u>
</span>                      4              4

                      y       =    8

5. The number of $1 bills (x) can then be solved using either Equations 1 or         2. Using Equation 1 to determine x, 
 
                         x + y = 15    
                               x = 15 - y
                               x = 15 - 8
                               x = 7

From the solution, we have determined that there are 8 pieces of $5 bills and 7 pieces of $1 bills.

For 0 ≤ ϴ &lt; 2π, how many solutions are there to tan(StartFraction theta Over 2 EndFraction) = sin(ϴ)? Note: Do not include va
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

3 solutions:

\theta={0, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all, we need to figure the angles that cannot be included in our answers out. The only function in the equation that isn't defined for some angles is tan(\frac{\theta}{2}) so let's focus on that part of the equation first.

We know that:

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{sin(\frac{\theta}{2})}{cos(\frac{\theta}{2})}

therefore:

cos(\frac{\theta}{2})\neq0

so we need to find the angles that will make the cos function equal to zero. So we get:

cos(\frac{\theta}{2})=0

\frac{\theta}{2}=cos^{-1}(0)

\frac{\theta}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}+\pi n

or

\theta=\pi+2\pi n

we can now start plugging values in for n:

\theta=\pi+2\pi (0)=\pi

if we plugged any value greater than 0, we would end up with an angle that is greater than 2\pi so,  that's the only angle we cannot include in our answer set, so:

\theta\neq \pi

having said this, we can now start solving the equation:

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=sin(\theta)

we can start solving this equation by using the half angle formula, such a formula tells us the following:

tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{1-cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}

so we can substitute it into our equation:

\frac{1-cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}=sin(\theta)

we can now multiply both sides of the equation by sin(\theta)

so we get:

1-cos(\theta)=sin^{2}(\theta)

we can use the pythagorean identity to rewrite sin^{2}(\theta) in terms of cos:

sin^{2}(\theta)=1-cos^{2}(\theta)

so we get:

1-cos(\theta)=1-cos^{2}(\theta)

we can subtract a 1 from both sides of the equation so we end up with:

-cos(\theta)=-cos^{2}(\theta)

and we can now add cos^{2}(\theta)

to both sides of the equation so we get:

cos^{2}(\theta)-cos(\theta)=0

and we can solve this equation by factoring. We can factor cos(\theta) to get:

cos(\theta)(cos(\theta)-1)=0

and we can use the zero product property to solve this, so we get two equations:

Equation 1:

cos(\theta)=0

\theta=cos^{-1}(0)

\theta={\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}

Equation 2:

cos(\theta)-1=0

we add a 1 to both sides of the equation so we get:

cos(\theta)=1

\theta=cos^{-1}(1)

\theta=0

so we end up with three answers to this equation:

\theta={0, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}

myrzilka [38]

The factors of the expression are \rm (4x+1)(-2x^2-3)

<h3>How to find factors in the expression?</h3>

First group the first two terms and the last two terms together respectively.

The factors of the expression are given by;

\rm -8x^3 -2x^2 - 12x - 3\\\\-2x^2(4x+1)-3(4x+1)\\\\(4x+1)(-2x^2-3)

Hence, the factors of the expression are \rm (4x+1)(-2x^2-3).
