Why does the Board of Aldermen send a delegation to Miss Emily’s house?

The Board of Aldermen of the town send a delegation to the
home of Miss Emily Grierson because they want her to pay taxes.  She does not pay any
taxes on her home and property and they think that she
should.


In a previous generation (in 1894), the mayor of
the town had said that Miss Emily would not need to pay any taxes.  But later, when a
new generation came into power, they thought that this was not how things should be and
they sent the delegation to ask her to pay (since she had ignored
letters).

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) ...
