Let l, t, b represent the numbers of lions, tigers, bears, respectively.
2l +3t +3b = 156 . . . . . . . 156 meals per day are supplied
l +t = 3b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . there are 3 times as many great cats as bears
l +t +b = 68 . . . . . . . . . . . there are a total of 68 animals
_____
The last 2 equations tell you
.. 4b = 68
.. b = 17
Subtracting 3 times the last equation from the first gives
.. -l = -48
There are 48 lions, 3 tigers, and 17 bears.
Pi/4 radians
You're looking for the angle that has a secant of sqrt(2). And since the secant is simply the reciprocal of the cosine, let's take a look at that.
sqrt(2) = 1/x
x*sqrt(2) = 1
x = 1/sqrt(2)
Let's multiply both numerator and denominator by sqrt(2), so
x = sqrt(2)/2
And the value sqrt(2)/2 should be immediately obvious to you as a trig identity. Namely, that's the cosine of a 45 degree angle. Now for the issue of how to actually give you your answer. There's no need for decimals to express 45 degrees, so that caveat in the question doesn't make any sense unless you're measuring angles in radians. So let's convert 45 degrees to radians. A full circle has 360 degrees, or 2*pi radians. So:
45 * (2*pi)/360 = 90*pi/360 = pi/4
So your answer is pi/4 radians.
Answer:
Although I'm not entirely sure of the question (sorry lol), any ratio that is 1.5:2 , 6:8 , 9:12 , 12:18 etc would be equivalent to 3 to 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide both 3 and 4 by 2 you'd wind up with 1.5 ( 3 ) and 2 ( 4 ). When multiplying, you'd get 3x2 = 6 and 4x2=8, 3x3 = 9 and 4x3 = 12 and so on.
let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then subtract, bearing in mind that the LCD of 4 and 2 is 4.
I believe it’s option #3. hopefully that helps :)
