QUICK! 75 POINTS !!Select all that are part of the solution set of csc(x) > 1 and over 0 ≤ x ≤ 2π.

Answer:

$\frac{\pi}{4}$

$\frac{5\pi}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer uses the unit circle and that sine and cosecant are reciprocals.

The first choice doesn't even fit the criteria that $x$ is between $0$ and $2\pi$ (inclusive of both endpoints) because of the $x=\frac{-7\pi}{6}$ .

Let's check the second choice.

$\csc(\frac{\pi}{4})=\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}} \text{ since } \sin(\frac{\pi}{4})=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ .

$\csc(\frac{\pi}{4})>1 \text{ since } \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}>1$

$\csc(\frac{\pi}{2})=1 \text{ since } \sin(\frac{\pi}{2})=1$ which means $\csc(\frac{\pi}{2})=1$ which is not greater than 1.

So we can eliminate second choice.

Let's look at the third.

$\csc(\frac{5\pi}{6})=2 \text{ since } \sin(\frac{5\pi}{6})=\frac{1}{2}$ which means $\csc(\frac{5\pi}{6})>1$ .

$\csc(\pi)$ isn't defined because $\sin(\pi)=0$ .

So we are eliminating 3rd choice now.

Let's look at the fourth choice.

$\csc(\frac{7\pi}{6})=-2 \text{ since } \sin(\frac{7\pi}{6})=\frac{-1}{2}$ which means $\csc(\frac{7\pi}{6})$ and not greater than 1.

I was looking at the rows as if they were choices.

Let me break up my choices.

So we said $x=-\frac{7\pi}{6}$ doesn't work because it is not included in the inequality $0\le x \le 2\pi$ .

How about $x=0$ ? This leads to $\csc(0)$ which doesn't exist because $\sin(0)=0$ .

So neither of the first two choices on the first row.

Let's look at the second row again.

We said $\frac{\pi}{4}$ worked but not $\frac{\pi}{2}$

Let's look at the choices on the third row.

We said $\frac{5\pi}{6}$ worked but not $x=\pi$

Let's look at at the last choice.

We said it gave something less than 1 so this choice doesn't work.

A mail clerk found that the total weight of 155 packages was 815 pounds. if each of the packages weighed either 3 pounds or 8 po

8090 [49]

For this on you need to set up two equations
x + y = 155 total number of packages
3x+8y=815 total weight
Then multiply both sides of the first equation by 3: 3x +3y = 465
Then combine the two equations by subtracting the first one from the second one which gets you 5y=350 so y = 70 so we have 70 packages weighting 8 pounds.

Part 1
Rule of thumb for month rent: Rent ≤ 28% of monthly gross income

Then,
Month gross income = $62,112/12 = $5,176
Affordable rent = 0.28*5176 = $1,449.28
Rounding to nearest dollar;
Affordable rent = $1,449.
The correct answer is C.

Part 2
Monthly rent = $1240
Security deposit = 80% of rent = 0.8*1240 = $992
Amount to be paid = 1240*2 + 992 = $3472

The correct answer is B.

Pete is conducting a survey to determine his customers’ overall satisfaction about the quality of his company’s products. He sen

hram777 [196]

No.
Because, when to do some sort of analysis (such as this one), you need to take (for example) a RANDOM SAMPLE from the POPULATION of the problem that is being analyzed. In this example (problem), Pete wants to evaluate OVERALL satisfaction of customers, so he should NOT send the surveys ONLY to the customers who have purchased the LARGEST number of items, but to the randomly selected customers, in order to obtain REPRESENTATIVE results of the OVERALL satisfaction. If he sends the surveys only to the customers who have bought the largest number of items, he will obtain VERY HIGH satisfaction of customers, as results, of course, and this will not be representative results.
