Answer:

£11.40

Step-by-step explanation:

She spent £1.55 + £1.30 = £2.85.

Now she has 3/4 of the original amount.

That means she spent 1/4 of the original amount.

£2.85 is 1/4 of the original amount.

The original amount is 4 × £2.85.

She started with £11.40.

You can solve it by writing an equation.

She started with x.

x - 2.85 = 3x/4

x/4 = 2.85

x = 11.40

Find all solutions in the interval [0, 2π). tan x + sec x = 1
svp [43]
Use the identity 
sec^2x = 1 + tan^2 x
- so sec x = sqrt(1 + tan^2 x) then:-
tan x + sqrt( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1
sqrt ( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1 - tan x
1 + tan^2 x  = 1 + tan^2x - 2 tan x
0 = -2 tanx 

tan x = 0 

x =  0, π 
π is an extraneous root because sec 180 = -1 
So the answer  is 0 degrees
