Two student clubs were selling t-shirts and school notebooks to raise money for an upcoming school event. In the first few minut

es, club A sold 3 t-shirts and 2 notebooks, and made $19. Club B sold 1 t-shirt and 1 notebook, for a total of $8. Use the given matrix equation to solve for the cost of t-shirts and notebooks that were sold. Explain the steps that you took to solve this problem.
A matrix with 2 rows and 2 columns, where row 1 is 3 and 2 and row 2 is 1 and 1, is multiplied by matrix with 2 rows and 1 column, where row 1 is x and row 2 is y, equals a matrix with 2 rows and 1 column, where row 1 is 19 and row 2 is 8.

Using a system of equations, it is found that the cost of a t-shirt is of $3 and the cost of a notebook is of $5.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

The variables are given as follows:

  • Variable x: Cost of a t-shirt.
  • Variable y: Cost of a notebook.

Considering the costs of the purchases of Clubs A and B, the matrices give the equations as follows:

  • 3x + 2y = 19.
  • x + y = 8 -> y = (8 - x).

Hence, replacing the second equation into the first:

3x + 2(8 - x) = 19

x = 3.

y = 8 - x = 8 - 3 = 5.

The cost of a t-shirt is of $3 and the cost of a notebook is of $5.

Circle O is shown. 2 tangents intersect at a point outside of the circle which is labeled Satellite. The angle formed is 20 degr
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The arc measure, x, that the satellite can see is 160°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the two tangents intersect at a point outside the with circle center O

The angle formed between between the two tangent = 20°

The first arc formed is measured as x°, which is the arc opposite the point where the two tangents meet = The arc the satellite can see

The angle x is given by the relationship;

x = 2 × (90 - v/2)

Where;

v = The angle formed at the point where the two tangent meet = 20°

Therefore;

x = 2 × (90 - 20/2) =  2 × (90 - 10) =  2 × 80  = 160°

The arc measure, x, that the satellite can see = 160°.

Solve the equation. Check your solution.<br> 3x+4x-8=6<br> x= <br> ​(Simplify your​ answer.)
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

<h2>x=2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x

3x + 4x - 8 = 6

             +8    +8

3x + 4x = 6 + 8

Simplify

3x + 4x = 6 + 8

7x = 14

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 14/7

x = 2
