The cotangent is given by the cosine over the sine.
If the cotangent is positive and the sine is positive, that means the cosine is also positive.
Now, in order to find the value of cos(x), we can use the following property:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin ^2(x)+\cos ^2(x)=1 \\ (0.4)^2+\cos ^2(x)=1 \\ 0.16+\cos ^2(x)=1 \\ \cos ^2(x)=1-0.16 \\ \cos ^2(x)=0.84 \\ \cos (x)=0.917 \end{gathered}[/tex]A boutique in Lanberry specializes in leather goods for men. Last month, the company sold 56 wallets and 63 belts, for a total of $3,920. This month, they sold 94 wallets and 22 belts, for a total of $3,230. How much does the boutique charge for each item?
Let w represent the cost of each wallet.
Let b represent the cost of each belt.
Last month, the company sold 56 wallets and 63 belts, for a total of $3,920. This means that
56w + 63b = 3920
This month, they sold 94 wallets and 22 belts, for a total of $3,230. This means that
94w + 22b = 3230
We would solve the equations by applying the method of elimination. To eliminate w, we would multiply the first equation by 94 and the second equation by 56. The new equations would be
5264w + 5922b = 368480
5264w + 1232b = 180880
Subtracting the second equation from the first, we have
5264w - 5264w + 5922b - 1232b = 368480 - 180880
4690b = 187600
b = 187600/4690
b = 40
Substituting b = 40 into 56w + 63b = 3920, we have
56w + 63(40) = 3920
56w + 2520 = 3920
56w = 3920 - 2520 = 1400
w = 1400/56
w = 25
Thus, the boutique charges $25 for each wallet and $40 for each belt
Do they have the same value? Is +3 equal to -3 and -10 equal to +10? Why?
+3 and -3 do not have the same value
+10 and -10 do not have the same value
Explanation:+3 is a positive number while -3 is a negative number
+3 ≠ -3 (Since one is positive and the other is negative)
The difference between +3 and -3 = 3 - (-3) = 6
Therefore, +3 and -3 do not have the same value
+10 is a positive number while -10 is a negative number
+10 ≠ -10 (Since one is positive and the other is negative)
The difference between +10 and -10 = 10 - (-10) = 20
Therefore, +10 and -10 do not have the same value

An athlete runs at a speed of 9 miles per hour. If one lap is 349 yards, how many laps does he run in 22 minutes
The athlete will cover 17 yards in 22 minutes of his running.
What is unitary method?The unitary method is a method in which you find the value of a single unit and then the value of a required number of units.
Given is an athlete who runs at a speed of 9 miles per hour and one lap is 349 yards.
We will use the unit conversions to solve the given problem.
The speed of the athlete is 9 mph. We can write it as -
9 mph = (9 x 1760) yards per hour = 15840 yards per hour.
15840 yards per hour = (15840/60) yards per minute = 264 yards per min.
Total yards covered in 22 minutes = 22 x 264 = 5808 yards
one lap is equivalent to 349 yards.
1 yard is equivalent to (1/349) laps
5808 yards are equivalent to (5808/349) or 16.6 yards or approximately 17 yards.
Therefore, the athlete will cover 17 yards in 22 minutes of his running.

An online company is advertising a mixer on sale for 25 percent off the original price for 260.99. What is the sale price for the mixer . Round your answer to the nearest cent , if necessary.
$195.74
1) We can find out the sale price for the mixer, by writing out an equation:
In the discount factor 1 stands for 100% and 25% =0.25
2) So we can calculate it then this way:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 260.99(1-0.25)= \\ 260.99\text{ (0.75)=}195.74 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Note that we have rounded it off to the nearest cent 195.7425 to 195.74 since the last digit "4" is lesser than 5, we round it down.
3) So the price of that mixer, with a discount of 25% (off) is $195.74
Alternatively, we can find that price by setting a proportion:
0.25 = 1/4
Writing out the ratios we have:
260.99 --------- 1
x ---------------- 1/4
Cross multiplying it we have:
260.99 x 1/4 = x
x=65.2475
Subtracting that value 25% (65.2475) from 260.99 we have:
260.99 - 65.2475 =195.7425 ≈ 195.74

Problem #2
Given the diagram of the statement, we have:
From the diagram, we see that we have two triangles:
Triangle 1 or △ADP, with:
• angle ,θ,,
,• hypotenuse ,h = AP,,
,• adjacent cathetus, ac = AD = x cm.
,• opposite cathetus ,oc = DP,.
Triangle 2 or △OZP, with:
• angle θ,
,• hypotenuse, h = OP = 4 cm,,
,• adjacent cathetus, ac = ZP = AP/2,.
(a) △ADP: sides and area
Formula 1) From geometry, we know that for right triangles Pitagoras Theorem states:
[tex]h^2=ac^2+oc^2.[/tex]Where h is the hypotenuse, ac is the adjacent cathetus and oc is the opposite cathetus.
Formula 2) From trigonometry, we have the following trigonometric relation for right triangles:
[tex]\cos \theta=\frac{ac}{h}.[/tex]Where:
• θ is the angle,
,• h is the hypotenuse,
,• ac is the adjacent cathetus.
(1) Replacing the data of Triangle 1 in Formulas 1 and 2, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} AP^2=AD^2+DP^2\Rightarrow DP=\sqrt[]{AP^2-AD^2}=\sqrt[]{AP^2-x^2\cdot cm^2}\text{.} \\ \cos \theta=\frac{AD}{AP}=\frac{x\cdot cm}{AP}\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex](2) Replacing the data of Triangle 2 in Formula 2, we have:
[tex]\cos \theta=\frac{ZP}{OP}=\frac{AP/2}{4cm}.[/tex](3) Equalling the right side of the equations with cos θ in (1) and (2), we get:
[tex]\frac{x\cdot cm}{AP}=\frac{AP/2}{4cm}.[/tex]Solving for AP², we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x\cdot cm=\frac{AP^2}{8cm}, \\ AP^2=8x\cdot cm^2\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex](4) Replacing the expression of AP² in the equation for DP in (1), we have the equation for side DP in terms of x:
[tex]DP^{}=\sqrt[]{8x\cdot cm^2-x^2\cdot cm^2}=\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}\cdot cm\text{.}[/tex](ii) The area of a triangle is given by:
[tex]S=\frac{1}{2}\cdot base\cdot height.[/tex]In the case of triangle △ADP, we have:
• base = DP,
,• height = AD.
Replacing the values of DP and AD in the formula for S, we get:
[tex]S=\frac{1}{2}\cdot DP\cdot AD=\frac{1}{2}\cdot(\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}\cdot cm)\cdot(x\cdot cm)=\frac{x}{2}\cdot\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}\cdot cm^2.[/tex](b) Maximum value of S
We must find the maximum value of S in terms of x. To do that, we compute the first derivative of S(x):
[tex]\begin{gathered} S^{\prime}(x)=\frac{dS}{dx}=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}\cdot cm^2+\frac{x}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{8-2x}{\sqrt{x\cdot(8-x)}}\cdot cm^2 \\ =\frac{1}{2}\cdot\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}\cdot cm^2+\frac{x}{2}\cdot\frac{(4-x^{})}{\cdot\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}}\cdot cm^2 \\ =\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{x\cdot(8-x)+x\cdot(4-x)}{\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}}\cdot cm^2 \\ =\frac{x\cdot(6-x)}{\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}}\cdot cm^2\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we equal to zero the last equation and solve for x, we get:
[tex]S^{\prime}(x)=\frac{x\cdot(6-x)}{\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}}\cdot cm^2=0\Rightarrow x=6.[/tex]We have found that the value x = 6 maximizes the area S(x). Replacing x = 6 in S(x), we get the maximum area:
[tex]S(6)=\frac{6}{2}\cdot\sqrt[]{6\cdot(8-6)}\cdot cm^2=3\cdot\sqrt[]{12}\cdot cm^2=6\cdot\sqrt[]{3}\cdot cm^2.[/tex](c) Rate of change
We know that the length AD = x cm decreases at a rate of 1/√3 cm/s, so we have:
[tex]\frac{d(AD)}{dt}=\frac{d(x\cdot cm)}{dt}=\frac{dx}{dt}\cdot cm=-\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}}\cdot\frac{cm}{s}\Rightarrow\frac{dx}{dt}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}}\cdot\frac{1}{s}\text{.}[/tex]The rate of change of the area S(x) is given by:
[tex]\frac{dS}{dt}=\frac{dS}{dx}\cdot\frac{dx}{dt}\text{.}[/tex]Where we have applied the chain rule for differentiation.
Replacing the expression obtained in (b) for dS/dx and the result obtained for dx/dt, we get:
[tex]\frac{dS}{dt}(x)=(\frac{x\cdot(6-x)}{\sqrt[]{x\cdot(8-x)}}\cdot cm^2\text{)}\cdot(-\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}}\cdot\frac{1}{s}\text{)}[/tex]Finally, we evaluate the last expression for x = 2, we get:
[tex]\frac{dS}{dt}(2)=(\frac{2\cdot(6-2)}{\sqrt[]{2\cdot(8-2)}}\cdot cm^2\text{)}\cdot(-\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}}\cdot\frac{1}{s})=-\frac{8}{\sqrt[]{12}}\cdot\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}}\cdot\frac{cm^2}{s}=-\frac{8}{\sqrt[]{36}}\cdot\frac{cm^2}{s}=-\frac{8}{6}\cdot\frac{cm^2}{s}=-\frac{4}{3}\cdot\frac{cm^2}{s}.[/tex]So the rate of change of the area of △ADP is -4/3 cm²/s.

First use the Pythagorean theorem to find the exact length of the missing side. Then find the exact values of the six trigonometric functions for angle 0.
The trigonometric functions are given by the following formulas:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin \theta=\frac{a}{h} \\ \cos \theta=\frac{b}{h} \\ \tan \theta=\frac{a}{b} \\ \cot \theta=\frac{b}{a} \\ \sec \theta=\frac{h}{b} \\ \csc \theta=\frac{h}{a} \end{gathered}[/tex]Where we call a to the opposite leg to the angle θ (the side whose measure equals 20), b is the adjacent leg to angle θ (the side whose measure equals 21) and we call h to the hypotenuse (the larger side, whose measure equals 29).
By replacing 20 for a, 21 for b and 29 for h into the above formulas, we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sin \theta=\frac{20}{29} \\ \cos \theta=\frac{21}{29} \\ \tan \theta=\frac{20}{21} \\ \csc \theta=\frac{29}{20} \\ \sec \theta=\frac{29}{21} \\ \cot \theta=\frac{21}{20} \end{gathered}[/tex]decide whether the events are independent or dependent and explain your answer.-drawing a ball from a lottery machine, not replacing it, and then drawing a second ball.
If the probability of an event is unaffected by other events, it is called an independent event. If the probability of an event is affected by other events, then it is called a dependent event.
A ball is drawn from a lottery machine. Then, a second ball is drawn without replacing the first ball. Let T be the number of balls in the lottery machine initially. Before the first ball is drawn, the number of balls in the machine is T. At the time the second ball is drawn, the number of balls in the machine is T-1. From T-1 balls, the second ball is drawn. So, the event of drawing the second ball is affected by the event of drawing the first ball.
Therefore, the event of drawing a ball from a lottery machine, not replacing it, and then drawing a second ball is a dependent event.
