Let x represent the amount to be added. The total amount of tin will be
15%·20 + 10%·x = 12%·(20+x)
(15%-12%)·20 = (12%-10%)·x
3%·20/2% = x
30 = x
30 pounds of 10% tin must be added to get a 12% mixture.

Answer:
−1/cotθ
1/cot(−θ)
tan(−θ)
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent function is a the ratio for an angle defined as opposite / adjacent. A negative applied to −tan θ will give the opposite value. This is also true for the function when taken on a negative angle. tan(−θ) = −tan θ. This identity is also true for sin, sec, and cot. Recall that cotangent is the reciprocal of tangent and is defined as the ratio adjacent / opposite. Taking the reciprocal of cotangent will be the same as tangent. Using this information the following are equivalent:
1/cotθ
−1/cotθ ----> The reciprocal of Cot is Tan
1/cot(−θ)
----> The reciprocal of Cot is Tan and cot(−θ) = −cot θ.
−1/cot(−θ)
tan θ
tan(−θ)----> tan(−θ) = −tan θ
-0.5p-2=p
Add 0.5 to both sides which would equal
-2=1.5p
Then divide -2 by 1.5p
P=-1.33333333
