Please simplify the following trigonometric identity.

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{1}{\sec\alpha-\tan\alpha}[/tex]

Answers

Answer 1

Examining the question:

We are given the expression:

[tex]\frac{1}{Sec(\alpha)-Tan(\alpha)}[/tex]

We know from Basic trigonometry that:

[tex]Sec(\alpha) = \frac{1}{Cos(\alpha)}[/tex]

[tex]Tan(\alpha) = \frac{Sin(\alpha)}{Cos(\alpha)}[/tex]

Simplifying the expression:

Replacing these values in the given expression, we get:

[tex]\frac{1}{\frac{1}{Cos(\alpha)} -\frac{Sin(\alpha)}{Cos(\alpha)} }[/tex]

Since the denominator of both the values in the denominator is the same:

[tex]\frac{1}{\frac{1-Sin(\alpha)}{Cos(\alpha)} }[/tex]

We know that [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{a}{b} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{b}{a}[/tex], using the same property:

[tex]\frac{Cos(\alpha)}{1-Sin(\alpha)}[/tex]

and we are done!

Answer 2

Answer:

cos a

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

1  -sin (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that sec a = 1/ cos (a)  and tan a = sin (a) / cos (a)

1

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

1/ cos (a)  -sin (a) / cos (a)

Multiply the top and bottom by cos (a)

1* cos a

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

( 1/ cos (a)  -sin (a) / cos (a)) * cos a

cos a

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

1  -sin (a)

Trevor is interested in purchasing the local hardware/electronic goods store in a small town in South Ohio.

Estimate the probability that the store will gross over $850

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Trevor is interested in purchasing the local hardware/electronic goods store in a small town in South Ohio. After examining accounting records for the past several years, he found that the store has been grossing over $850 per day about 60% of the business days it is open. Estimate the probability that the store will gross over $850 at least 6 out of 10 business day

Answer:

P( at least 6 out of 10 business days ) = 0.6312

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

p = 60% = 0.6

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

Using Binomial distribution;

P( X = r ) = [tex]^nC_r p^rq^{n-r[/tex]

where [tex]^nC_r = n!/(r!(n-r))[/tex]

we substitute

P( at leas 6 ) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

= [¹⁰C₆ × 0.6⁶ × 0.4⁴] + [¹⁰C₇ × 0.6⁷ × 0.4³] + [¹⁰C₈ × 0.6⁸ × 0.4²] + [¹⁰C₉ × 0.6⁹ × 0.4¹] + [¹⁰C₁₀ × 0.6¹⁰ × 0.4⁰]

= [0.250] + [0.214] + [0.1209] + [ 0.0403] + [ 0.00604 ]

= 0.6312

Therefore, P( at least 6 out of 10 business days ) = 0.6312

Chandler, Jamal, Allison, and Qi are given the following problem. In 1982, Wayne Gretsky set a record for the greatest number of hockey goals in one season with 92 goals. If a player has scored 60 goals this season and averages 2 goals per game, how many additional games must he play to break the record? Each student writes an inequality to represent the situation. Chandler wrote 60 + 2g ≥ 92 Jamal wrote 60 + 2g > 92 Allison wrote 60 + 2g < 92 Qi wrote 60 + 2g ≤ 92 Whose inequality is CORRECT? A. Qi B. Chandler C. Allison D. Jamal

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Chandler, Jamal, Allison, and Qi are given the following problem: "In 1982, Wayne Gretsky set a record for the greatest number of hockey goals in one season with 92 goals. If a player has scored 60 goals this season and averages 2 goals per game, how many additional games must he play to break the record? ", And each student writes an inequality to represent the situation:

Chandler wrote 60 + 2g ≥ 92

Jamal wrote 60 + 2g> 92

Allison wrote 60 + 2g <92

Qi wrote 60 + 2g ≤ 92

To determine whose inequality is correct, the following calculation must be performed:

92 - 60 = 32

32/2 = 16

Chandler: 60 + 2x16 ≥ 92

Thus, Chandler wrote the correct option.

In a recent survey in a Statistics class, it was determined that only 70% of the students attend class on Fridays. From past data it was noted that 88% of those who went to class on Fridays pass the course, while only 20% of those who did not go to class on Fridays passed the course. a. What percentage of students is expected to pass the course? b. Given that a person passes the course, what is the probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays? (Hint: the above problem is based on conditional probability concept and the Bayes theorem)

Answers

Answer:

a) 67.6% of students is expected to pass the course

b) 0.9112 = 91.12% probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

a. What percentage of students is expected to pass the course?

88% of 70%(attended class)

20% of 100 - 70 = 30%(did not attend class). So

[tex]p = 0.88*0.7 + 0.2*0.3 = 0.676[/tex]

0.676*100% = 67.6%

67.6% of students is expected to pass the course.

b. Given that a person passes the course, what is the probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays?

Here, we use conditional probability:

Event A: Passed the course

Event B: Attended classes on Fridays.

67.6% of students is expected to pass the course.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.676[/tex]

Probability that passed and attended classes on Friday.

88% of 70%

This means that:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.88*0.7 = 0.616[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.616}{0.676} = 0.9112[/tex]

0.9112 = 91.12% probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays

If PQRS is a rhombus, find m

Answers

Answer:

m<PQR = 82°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Rhombus, the diagonals bisect its angles. This means that they divide each the four angles into two equal parts.

Therefore:

(4x - 27)° = (2x + 7)°

Solve for x

4x - 27 = 2x + 7

Collect like terms

4x - 2x = 27 + 7

2x = 34

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 34/2

x = 17

✔️m<PQR = (4x - 27) + (2x + 7)

Plug in the value of x

m<PQR = (4*17 - 27) + (2*17 + 7)

m<PQR = 41 + 41

m<PQR = 82°

Answer:

b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other:

First, distribute 3 to all terms within the parenthesis:

3(3x + 1) =

3 * 3x = 9x

3 * 1 =  3

9x + b = 9x + 3

Isolate the variable, b. Subtract 9x from both sides:

9x (-9x) + b = 9x (-9x) + 3

b = 3

3 is your value for b.

A 13-foot ladder leaning against a building meets the side of the building exactly 12 feet above the ground. How far from the building is the base of the ladder rounded to the nearest hundredth foot?

Answers

Answer:

At the moment in question, we have a 5-12-13 right triangle.

x^2 + y^2 = 13^2

2x dx/dt + 2y dy/dt = 0

2(5)(2/3) + 2(12) dy/dt = 0

dy/dt = -5/18 ft/s

the area is 1/2 xy, so

da/dt = 1/2 y dx/dt + 1/2 x dy/dt

= (1/2)((12)(2/3) + (5)(-5/18))

Soln.: From the line plot, we can see that 3 ounce occurred once, 3 1/2 ounce occurred 4 times, 4 ounce occurred 3 times, 4 1/2 ounce occurred 5 times, 5 ounce occurred 2 times, 5 1/2 ounce occurred 3 times, 6 ounce occurred 2 times.

Therefore 3 ounce occurred the least.

b) What is the total weight of the pebbles represented by the data?

Soln.: The total weight is:

Total weight = (3*1) + (3 1/2 * 4) + (4 * 3) + (4 1/2 * 5) + (5 * 2) + (5 1/2 * 3) + (6 * 2) = 90 ounce

c)  Is there an outlier in the data set? If so what number is the outlier?

Soln.: There is no outlier in the data set because all the data are close to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

<1 and 83° are same-side interior angles. Same-side interior angles are supplementary. This implies that:

m<1 + 83° = 180°

Therefore:

m<1 + 83° - 83° = 180° - 83° (subtraction property of equality)

m<1 = 97°

Answer:

<1=97°

<1+83=180 co interior angle
