Answer:  \frac{-3\sqrt{13}+4\sqrt{3}}{20}

This is the single fraction of -3*sqrt(13)+4*sqrt(3) up top all over 20.

sqrt = square root

=======================================================

Explanation:

Angle theta is between pi and 3pi/2. This places the angle in quadrant Q3 where both cosine and sine are negative

Use the pythagorean trig identity to get the following:

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta + \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\right)^2 = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta + \frac{3}{16} = 1\\\\\sin^2 \theta = 1 - \frac{3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{16}{16} - \frac{3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{16-3}{16}\\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{13}{16}\\\\\sin \theta = -\sqrt{\frac{13}{16}} \ \text{ ... sine is negative in Q3}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{16}}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4}\\\\

Angle beta is in Q1 where sine and cosine are positive.

Draw a right triangle with legs 3 and 4. The hypotenuse is 5 through the pythagorean theorem. In other words, we have a 3-4-5 right triangle.

Since \tan \beta = \frac{3}{4}, this means \sin \beta = \frac{3}{5} \ \text{ and } \ \cos \beta = \frac{4}{5}

Use these ideas:

  • sin = opposite/hypotenuse
  • cos = adjacent/hypotenuse
  • tan = opposite/adjacent

In this case we have: opposite = 3, adjacent = 4, hypotenuse = 5.

-------------------------------------

To recap:

\cos \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\\\\\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4}\\\\\cos \beta = \frac{3}{5}\\\\\sin \beta = \frac{4}{5}\\\\

They lead to this

\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = \sin \theta * \cos \beta - \cos \theta * \sin \beta\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = -\frac{\sqrt{13}}{4} * \frac{3}{5} - \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\right) * \frac{4}{5}\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = -\frac{3\sqrt{13}}{20}+\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{20}\\\\\sin\left(\theta + \beta\right) = \frac{-3\sqrt{13}+4\sqrt{3}}{20}\\\\

JulsSmile [24]
18 + 14 + 14 = 46 oz

Then there are 16 oz in a pound so we take 46 oz ÷ 16 oz and we get 46/16 in fraction form. Then we simplify this out and get 2 7/8 pounds.

Simplify this expression.

Answer: 0.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay -5.37 + 8.14 = 2.77 ( you can simply plug this into the calculator or you could switch the problem around so it’s 8.14 - 5.37, either way you’ll get 2.77)

And then you take 2.77 -1.89 = 0.88

So 0.88 is your answer
