The identity in question is

cos(a - b) = cos(a) cos(b) + sin(a) sin(b)

so that

cos(a - b) = 12/37 cos(a) + 3/5 sin(b)

Since both a and b lie in the first quadrant, both cos(a) and sin(b) will be positive. Then it follows from the Pythagorean identity,

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1,

that

cos(a) = √(1 - sin²(a)) = 4/5

and

sin(b) = √(1 - cos²(b)) = 35/37

So,

cos(a - b) = 12/37 • 4/5 + 3/5 • 35/37 = 153/185

3. Which expression is equivalent to log532?
saul85 [17]

Answer: The Nth power xN of a number x was originally defined as x multiplied by itself, until there is a total of N identical factors. By means of various generalizations, the definition can be extended for any value of N that is any real number.

(2) The logarithm (to base 10) of any number x is defined as the power N such that

x = 10N

(3) Properties of logarithms:

(a) The logarithm of a product P.Q is the sum of the logarithms of the factors

log (PQ) = log P + log Q

(b) The logarithm of a quotient P / Q is the difference of the logarithms of the factors

log (P / Q) = log P – log Q

(c) The logarithm of a number P raised to power Q is Q.logP

log[PQ] = Q.logP

Can anyone explain how to solve this using %/100 = is/of?
kumpel [21]

Answer:

20%/100 = 8 peeps / 40 items in the basket

(40 total items)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of items in the basket. The ratio of peeps to the total item is 1/5. Therefore,

1/5 = 8/x

x = 40

40 total items

If ƒ={(5, 1),(6, 2),(7, 3),(8, 1),(9, 7)}, then the range of ƒ is {(1, 5),(2, 6),(3, 7),(1, 8),(7, 9)} {1, 2, 3, 7} {5, 6, 7, 8,
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

{1,2,3,7}

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a relation is the set of y-values of the ordered pairs.

The given relation is:

ƒ={(5, 1),(6, 2),(7, 3),(8, 1),(9, 7)},

The set of y-values of the given ordered pairs are;

{1,2,3,7}

Therefore the range of y is {1,2,3,7}
