The cost of one pair of shoes is $8.

The cost of one shirt is $12.

<h3>What are the linear equation that represent the question?</h3>

2a + b = 32 equation 1

2a + 3b = 48 equation 2

Where:

  • a = cost of 1 shirt
  • b = cost of one pair of shoes

<h3>What is the cost of one pair of shoes?</h3>

Subtract  equation 1 from  equation 2

2b = 16

b = 16/2

b = $8

<h3>What is the cost of one shirt?</h3>

Substitute for b in equation 1

2a + 8 = 32

2a = 32 - 8

2a = 24

a = 24 / 2

a = $12

determine whether the lines intersect and if so find the point of intersection and the cosine of the angle of intersection x=4t+
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

As the lines are not intersecting nor parallel, they must be skew.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question is incomplete, we consider the nearest match available online.

Parametric equations of two lines are:

L₁ : x=4t+2 , y = 3 , z =-t+1

L₂: x=2s+2 , y= 2s+5 , z = s+1

If lines are parallel then parametric coordinates must be equal scalar multiple of each other which s not true here.

4t+2=2s+2 ---(1)\\ \\3=2s+5---(2) \\\\-t+1=s+1---(3)

If lines are intersecting then parametric coordinates must be equal for some value of t and s.

From (3)\\-t=s\\From (2)\\\\s=\frac{3-5}{2}\\\\s=-1\\\implies t=1\\\\To\,\,check\,\, the \,\,values \,\,of \,\,s\,\, and \,\,t \,\,for\,\,intersection\,\,put \,\,them\,\, in\,\, (1)\\\\4(1)+2= 2(-1)+2\\ 6\ne0

Hence the lines are not intersecting nor parallel, they must be skew.

Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours. If the amount she earns varies directly with the
Andrei [34K]

Given:

Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours.

Amount she earns varies directly with the  number of hours she works.

She need to work to earn an  additional $260.

To find:

Number of hours she need to work to earn an  additional $260.

Solution:

Let the amount of earnings be A and number of hours be t.

According to question,

A\propto t

A=kt     ...(i)

where, k is constant of proportionality.

Karen earns $54.60 for working 6 hours.

54.60=k(6)

Divide both sides by 6.

\dfrac{54.60}{6}=k

9.1=k

Put k=9.1 in (i).

A=9.1t

Substitute A=260 in the above equation.

260=9.1t

Divide both sides by 9.1.

\dfrac{260}{9.1}=t

28.5714=t

t\approx 29

Therefore, she need to work extra about 29 hours to earn an  additional $260.
