well, we know that θ is in the III Quadrant, where the sine is negative and the cosine is negative as well, or if you wish, where "x" as well as "y" are both negative, now, the hypotenuse or radius of the circle is just a distance amount, so is never negative, so in the equation of cos(θ) = - (2/5), the negative must be the adjacent side, thus

cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-2}}{\underset{hypotenuse}{5}}\qquad \textit{let's find the \underline{opposite side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{5^2 - (-2)^2}=b\implies \pm\sqrt{25-4}\implies \pm\sqrt{21}=b\implies \stackrel{III~Quadrant}{-\sqrt{21}=b}

\dotfill\\\\ csc(\theta)\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{5}}{\underset{opposite}{-\sqrt{21}}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{rationalizing the denominator}}{-\cfrac{5}{\sqrt{21}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{21}}\implies -\cfrac{5\sqrt{21}}{21}} \\\\\\ tan(\theta)=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-\sqrt{21}}}{\underset{adjacent}{-2}}\implies tan(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{21}}{2}

Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

You can use Gaussian Elimination.

Double both sides of the first equation and add the second equation.

6x + 4y = 8

5x - 4y = 3

---------------

11x      = 11

x = 1

5 - 4y = 3

-4y = -2

y = 1/2

Mario took clothes to the cleaners three times last month. first, he brought 3 shorts and 1pair of slacks and $10.96. then, he b
valina [46]

Let us say that:

x = cost of shorts

y = cost of slacks

z = cost of sports coat

 

From the given statements, we can create the following equations:

eqtn 1: 3 x + y = 10.96

eqtn 2:  7 x + 2 y + z = 30.40

eqtn 3:  4 x + z = 14.45

 

Rewrite eqtn 1 explicit to y:

y = 10.96 – 3 x                    --> eqtn 4

 

Rewrite eqtn 3 explicit to z:

z = 14.45 – 4x                     --> eqtn 5

 

Plug in the values of y (eqtn 4) and z (eqtn 5) to eqtn 2:

7 x + 2 (10.96 – 3 x) + 14.45 – 4 x = 30.40

7 x + 21.92 – 6 x + 14.45 – 4 x = 30.40

- 3 x + 36.37 = 30.40

- 3 x = - 5.97

x = 1.99

 

Eqtn 4:

y = 10.96 – 3 x   

y = 10.96 – 3 (1.99)

y = 4.99

 

Eqtn 5:

z = 14.45 – 4x

z = 14.45 – 4 (1.99)

z = 6.49

 

 

Therefore each shirt cost $1.99, each slacks cost $4.99, and each sports coat cost $6.49.
