Solve the inequality step by step. Explain, please, each step! -7-3x

First, we have to subtract 5x, both sides of the
inequality:


-7-3x-5x<5x-5x+29


-7-8x<29


Now,
we'll keep the unknown to the left side of the inequality and we'll multiply the
inequality, both sides, by -1. Because of the negative value, the sign of the inequality
will be changed, after
multiplying.


7+8x>-29


Now,
we'll subtract 7, both sides of the inequality, and we'll
get:


7-7+8x>-29-7


8x>-36


Now,
we'll divide the inequality by
8:


x>-36/8


x>-9/2


The
solution of the inequality consists in all x values from the interval (-9/2,
inf).

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
