You used p minutes one month on your cell phone. The next month you used 75 fewer minutes. Simplify the expression.
Anestetic [448]
Hi there!

Let's assume that one month is represented by the variable 'm', the amount of minutes you started with is 's', and minutes you spent is 'p'.

So, one month can be represented as 'm=s-p'.

The next month is a bit more tricky. This will incorporate 75 less minutes into the equation. 'm=s-75' can be used to represent this, as we assume that you didn't use any minutes in the first month, and that p=75 in this case.

If you found this especially helpful, I'd appreciate if you'd vote me Brainliest for your answer. I want to be able to assist more users one-on-one, as well as to move up in rank! :)

Which identity could be the missing step to verify the identity (cos theta)(csc theta)=cot theta
N76 [4]
(cosx)(cscx) = cotx
cscx = 1/sinx
(cosx)(1/sinx) = (cosx/sinx)
cosx/sinx = cotx

Basically, I noticed that cscx is equivalent to 1 divided by sinx, and then multiplied that fraction by cosx, which got me cosx/sinx. Your quotient identities will tell you that cosx/sinx = cotx

The quotient of 9 3/4 and 5/8​
suter [353]

Answer:

15.6

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 9\frac{3}{4} = \frac{39}{4}  
  2. Plug 39/4 in: 39/4 ÷ 5/8
  3. 39/4 ÷ 5/8 = 39/4 × 8/5
  4. 39/4 × 8/5 = 312/20
  5. \frac{312}{20} = 15.6  

I hope this helps!
