The simplified expression of 1 minus the quantity 1 over cosecant squared x is 1 - 1/cosec^2(x).

The expression 1 minus the quantity 1 over cosecant squared x can be simplified by dividing the 1 over cosecant squared x into its components. The cosecant squared x can be written as 1/cosec x, and then the 1/cosec x can be written as 1/sin x, with the cosecant being the reciprocal of the sine. Therefore, the expression 1 minus the quantity 1 over cosecant squared x can be written as 1 - 1/sin x. To simplify this expression further, the denominator of 1/sin x can be squared, resulting in 1 - 1/sin^2(x). Since the cosecant is the reciprocal of the sine, cosec^2(x) can be substituted for sin^2(x), giving us the simplified expression 1 - 1/cosec^2(x).

The simple interest is I = $ 303.33  and the amount after 2 months with rate of 13 % is A = $ 14,303.33

Simple interest is a method of calculating interest that ignores the impact of compounding. While interest frequently compounds throughout the course of a loan's set periods, simple interest does not. Simple interest is calculated by multiplying the principal amount by the interest rate, times the number of periods.

Simple Interest = ( Principal Amount x Rate x Time Period ) / 100

Given data ,

Let the simple interest be represented as I

Let the amount with simple interest be A = P + I

Now , the principal P = $ 14,000

The rate of interest R = 13 %

The number of months = 2 months

The number of years = 2/12 years

Simple Interest I = ( Principal Amount x Rate x Time Period ) / 100

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Simple Interest I = ( 14,000 x 13 x ( 2/12 ) ) / 100

On simplifying the equation , we get

Simple Interest I = $ 303.33

Now , the amount after 2 months = P + I

Amount = $ 14,000 + $ 303.33 = $ 14,303.33

Hence , the interest is $ 303.33

This is a classic problem where we are asked to find such an integer that is going to be a divisor of the above set S of integers. The set S of integers consists of those integers that when squared are both divisible by 24 and 108. Now we know 24 can be written as 2*2*2*3 and similarly 108 can be written as 2*2*3*3*3. The smallest perfect square (n^2) which is a multiple of both 24 and 108 is 2^4*3^4, thus the smallest n is 2^2*3^2 = 36. So, only 12 is a divisor of all integers in S.

We can start solving the problem by using a system of equations. Let's call the number of ounces of solution a x and the number of ounces of solution b y. From the problem statement, we know that:

x + y = 150 (because the total amount of the mixture is 150 ounces)

0.6x + 0.9y = 0.65(x + y) (because the mixture is 65% salt, and we can find the amount of salt in the mixture by multiplying the percentage by the total amount)

We can use the first equation to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other:

y = 150 - x

Now we can substitute this expression for y into the second equation:

0.6x + 0.9(150 - x) = 0.65(150)

0.6x + 135 - 0.9x = 97.5

-0.3x = -37.5

x = 125

Now we can use the first equation to find the value of y:

y = 150 - x

y = 150 - 125

y = 25

So the scientist should use 125 ounces of solution a and 25 ounces of solution b to obtain 150 ounces of a mixture that is 65% salt.

In circle the length of PQ = 24 inches.

What is Circle?

A circle is a closed, two-dimensional object in which all points in the plane are equally spaced apart from the centre. The line of reflection symmetry is formed by each line that traverses the circle. Additionally, it possesses rotational symmetry around the centre for each angle.

Since AB= 25 inches and AC = 16 inches then

=> BC = AB-AC = 25-16 = 9 inches.

∠APB is a right angle because it is inscribed in a semicircle.

The three right triangles ᐃAPB, ᐃACP and ᐃPCB are all similar

because their corresponding angles are equal.  Therefore

=> [tex]\frac{AC}{PC}=\frac{PC}{BC}[/tex]

=> [tex]\frac{16}{PC}=\frac{PC}{9}[/tex]

From the question, we can deduce that

units bought = 5

cost of each = $2.50

amount spent = 5 * $2.5 = $12.5

units bought = 3

cost of each = $3.25

amount spent = 3 * $3.25 = $9.75

Total amount spent = spending for bottle water + spending for sandwiches

x + y = 51 (because the sum of the two numbers is 51)

x + (x + 21) = 51

x + x + 21 = 51

2x = 30

x = 15

Now that we know the value of x, we can use the first equation to find the value of y:

The values for area of z and y needs to be obtained.

The result will be in the form |y| + z as when the integration will be done, y will come out to be negative.

Now, x + z is the area of rectangle ABCD.

Verify whether x and y are equal in magnitude -

[tex]\begin{aligned}& x=\int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta} d \theta=\left[\frac{-1}{\sin \theta}\right]_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \\& =-1-(\sqrt{2}) \\& =\sqrt{2}-1\end{aligned}[/tex]

This is equal to |y| = x.

So, |y| + z is equivalent to writing x + z.

Now the formula for area of rectangle ABCD is -

Area = length × breadth

Area = √2 - [(3π/4) - (π/4)]

Answer:To show that Lorenz curves are always concave up on the interval [0, 1], we can use the definition of a Lorenz curve, which is L(x) = xp. Taking the second derivative of L(x) with respect to x gives us L''(x) = p. Since p is always greater than 0, L''(x) is always greater than 0. This means that L(x) is always concave up on the interval [0, 1].

Table of Lorenz values for p = 1.2, 1.5, 2.1, 2.5, 3, and 5:

a. The value of p that corresponds to the most equitable distribution of wealth is 1, as this would mean that the proportion of wealth held by each portion of the population is equal.

b. The value of p that corresponds to the least equitable distribution of wealth is 5, as this would mean that a small portion of the population holds a large proportion of the wealth.

The Gini Index is a measure of income inequality, where a value of 0 represents perfect equality (everyone has the same income) and a value of 1 represents perfect inequality (one person has all the income). The Gini Index is calculated as the ratio of the area between the Lorenz curve and the line of equality to the total area beneath the line of equality.

To find A and B for the Gini index we can use the following integral:

A = ∫(L(x) - x) dx from 0 to 1

B = ∫(x - L(x)) dx from 0 to 1

We can then solve the integral for each specific function of L(x) = xp to find the specific value of A and B.
