Answer:

Number of basketball = 9

Number of football = 15


Step-by-step explanation:

let number of basketball = x

let number of football = y


Given that cost of 1 basketball = 22

Then cost of x basketball = 22x


Given that cost of 1 football = 30

Then cost of x football = 30y


Then total expense = 22x+30y

Given total expense is $648 so we can set both equal to each other and get:

22x+30y=648...(i)


Given that they bought 6 more footballs than basketballs

so we get:

y=6+x...(ii)


Now plug (ii) into (i)

22x+30y=648

22x+30(6+x)=648

22x+180+30x=648

52x+180=648

52x=648-180

52x=468

x=9

plug x=9 into (ii)

y=6+x=6+9=15

Hence final answer is :

Number of basketball = 9

Number of football = 15

Answer:

  x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle bisector divides the segments on either side of it so they are proportional. That is ...

  x/12 = 5/10

  x = 12(5/10) = 6 . . . . . multiply by 12

TANGENT LINES FIND PERIMETER
Harlamova29_29 [7]
There is a theorem that says that, two tangent lines onto a circle that start from the same point are equal. For example, if we were to label the polygon ABCD, the tangent lines going from point A are equal, the lines going from point B are equal, etc.

Since we now know this rule, we can see that, for each point of the polygon you are given 1 out of 2 tangent lines for that point. Using this theorem, we can say that the other tangent line is equal to the first.

So, the bottom two tangents are 98 and 98, the right-side are both 22 and 22, the top are both 27 and 27, and the left are 22 and 22. We need to find the perimeter, or the sum of all the sides of the polygon. Seeing as the sides of the polygon are formed by all the tangent lines, we just have to find the sum of all the tangent lines.

98 + 98 + 22 + 22 + 27 + 27 + 22 + 22 =
= 196 + 88 + 54 (or 2*98 + 4*22 + 2+27) =
= 338 inches

I hope this wasnt too confusing.

Answer: 110

Step-by-step explanation: This is actually very simple. Al you have to do is to find the area of the 3 rectangles, which adds up to be 96, and find the area of the triangles, which adds up to be 14. You then have to add 96 and 14, which results in 110.
