Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

XY = 3x – 1, YZ = 5, and XZ = 5x – 8,

We know that XY + YZ = XZ, so

3x - 1 + 5 = 5x - 8

3x + 4 = 5x - 8

3x + 12 = 5x

12 = 2x

Simplify to an expression of the form (a sin(θ)).<br> 2sin(/8)2cos(/8)

rjkz [21]

Answer:

Your expression equals $2 \sin(\frac{\pi}{4})$ assuming the problem was to simplify $2\sin(\frac{\pi}{8}) 2\cos(\frac{\pi}{8})$ to the form $a\sin(\theta)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

$2\sin(\frac{\pi}{8}) 2\cos(\frac{\pi}{8})$

$2(2)\sin(\frac{\pi}{8})\cos(\frac{\pi}{8})$

Let's use the following identity: $2\sin(A)\cos(A)=\sin(2A)$

$2\sin(2 \cdot \frac{\pi}{8})$

$2 \sin(\frac{\pi}{4})$ which is comparable to the form $a\sin(\theta)$ .

$a=2$

$\theta=\frac{\pi}{4}$

Jackson wants to purchase a home theater system that sells for $2500. Either he can pay the total amount at the time of purchase

N76 [4]

Answer:

$90

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much money he can save by paying the total amount at the time of purchase, first you have to determine the total amount that Jackson would pay if he can agree to pay $250 down and $130 a month for 18 months:

$250+(130*18)=$2590

Then, you need to find the difference:

$2590-$2500=$90

According to this, the answer is that you will save $90 by paying the total amount at the time of purchase.
