What is the value of a ?

Li buys supplies so he can make and sell key chains. he begins to make a profit only after he sells 4 key chains. what point on the graph makes the most sense in this situation?

Which situation can be modeled by the inequality 5 + 10w ≥ 45? a. you start with $5 and save $10 a week until you have at least $45. b. you start with 5 baseball cards and purchase 10 cards every week until you have at most 45 cards. c. you start with 5 water bottles and purchases cases of 10 water bottles each until you have a total of 45 water bottles. d. you spend $5 plus $10 per week until you have less than $45.

Prove (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1 and (b) 1 − tanh 2(x) = sech 2(x). solution (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = ex + e−x 2 2 − 2 = e2x + 2 + e−2x 4 − = 4 = . (b) we start with the identity proved in part (a): cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1. if we divide both sides by cosh2(x), we get 1 − sinh2(x) cosh2(x) = 1 or 1 − tanh 2(x) = .
