Answer:

To prove that ( sin θ cos θ = cot θ ) is not a trigonometric identity.

Assume θ with a value and substitute with it.

Let θ = 45°

So, L.H.S = sin θ cos θ = sin 45° cos 45° = (1/√2) * (1/√2) = 1/2

R.H.S = cot θ = cot 45 = 1

So, L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

So, sin θ cos θ = cot θ is not a trigonometric identity.

Kona wants to bake at most 30 loaves of banana bread and nut bread for a bake sale. Each loaf of banana bread sells for $2.50,an

Mila [183]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

30 loaves of banana bread and nut bread at most

Banana bread is sold for $2.5

Nut bread is sold for $2.75

Total income she wants to make $44

Given that x represent loaves of bread

And y represent loaves of nut bread

First statement

She wants to make at most 30 of both loaves bread and nut, at most means the maximum she wanted to make is 30, so it is either 30 or less than 30.

Therefore the sum of the loaves bread and the nut bread is less or equal to 30.

Mathematically,

x+y≤30. Equation 1

Second statement

She wants to make at least a gain of $44, that is, the minimum money she wants to make is $44

Banana bread is sold for $2.5

Therefore she will make 2.5x by banking x nut bread

Nut bread is sold for $2.75

She will make 2.75y by baking y nut bread.

Therefore,

Since she wants to make at least $44,

The inequality is,

2.5x+2.75y≥ 44. equation 2

The inequalities model are

1. x+y≤30

2. 2.5x+2.75y≥ 44

Frank started out in his car travelling 45 mph. When Frank was 1 3 miles away, Daniel started out from the same point at 50 mph

oee [108]

Answer:

It will take 2.6 hours by Daniel to catch up with Frank.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Daniel will catch up with Frank after t hours.

Now, Frank will go 13 miles in $\frac{13}{45} = 0.288$ hours.

So, the distance traveled by Frank in (t + 0.228) hours with 45 mph speed will be equal to the distance traveled by Daniel in t hours with 50 mph speed.

Hence, 45(t + 0.288) = 50t

⇒ 5t = 13

⇒ t = 2.6 hours.

Therefore, it will take 2.6 hours by Daniel to catch up with Frank. (Answer)
