Answer: Each adult’s meal costed $15

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation can be modeled by the following equation:

2a + 3c = 42, where a = the cost of an adult’s meal, and c = the cost of a child’s meal


Since we know from the problem that a child’s meal costs $4, we know c:

2a + 3(4) = 42


At this point, we can just solve the resulting equation for a:

2a + 3(4) = 42

= 2a + 12 = 42 (simplify 3(4))

= 2a = 30 (subtract 12 from both sides)

= a = 15 (divide both sides by 2)


So, the cost of each adult’s meal was $15.

The cross-sectional areas of a right triangular prism and a right cylinder are congruent. The right triangular prism has a heigh
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

B.)The volume of the triangular prism is not equal to the volume of the cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the cross-sectional area of both congruent right triangular prism and right cylinder.

Since the prism has height 2 units, its volume V₁ = 2A.

Since the cylinder has height 6 units, its volume is V₂ = 6A

Dividing V₁/V₂ = 2A/6A =1/3

V₁ = V₂/3.

The volume of the prism is one-third the volume of the cylinder.

So, since the volume of the prism is neither double nor half of the volume of the cylinder nor is it equal to the volume of the cylinder, B is the correct answer.

So, the volume of the triangular prism is not equal to the volume of the cylinder.

Albert wants to show that tan(theta)sin(theta)+cos(theta)=sec(theta). He writes the following proof:
Nataly_w [17]
We have that
<span>tan(theta)sin(theta)+cos(theta)=sec(theta)
</span><span>[sin(theta)/cos(theta)] sin(theta)+cos(theta)=sec(theta)
</span>[sin²<span>(theta)/cos(theta)]+cos(theta)=sec(theta)

</span><span>the next step in this proof
is </span>write cos(theta)=cos²<span>(theta)/cos(theta) to find a common denominator
so

</span>[sin²(theta)/cos(theta)]+[cos²(theta)/cos(theta)]=sec(theta)<span>

</span>{[sin²(theta)+cos²(theta)]/cos(theta)}=sec(theta)<span>

remember that 
</span>sin²(theta)+cos²(theta)=1
{[sin²(theta)+cos²(theta)]/cos(theta)}------------> 1/cos(theta)
and 
1/cos(theta)=sec(theta)-------------> is ok

the answer is the option <span>B.)
He should write cos(theta)=cos^2(theta)/cos(theta) to find a common denominator.</span>
