<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

A box of 50 stickers would cost $13

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>1- getting the equation representing the price:</u>

We have two variables; the number of stickers and the price of the box

We can note that the price is the dependent variable (y) while the number of stickers is the independent one (x)

<u>We are given that:</u>

A box of 15 stickers cost $6..........> first point is (15,6)

A box of 25 stickers cost $8 ........> second point is (25,8)

The general equation of the linear line is:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

<u>i. getting the slope:</u>

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{8-6}{25-15}=0.2

The equation now became: y = 0.2x + c

<u>ii. getting the y-intercept:</u>

To get the y-intercept, use any of the given points and substitute in the equation we got in part i. I will use the point (15,6)

y = 0.2x + c

6 = 0.2(15) + c

c = 6 - 0.2(15) = 3

<u>The final equation is:</u>

y = 0.2x + 3

where y is the price of the box and x is the number of stickers it contains

<u>2- getting the price of a box with 50 stickers:</u>

To get the price of a box of 50 stickers, simply substitute with x = 50 in the equation we got from part 1

<u>This is done as follows:</u>

y = 0.2(50) + 3 = 13

Therefore, a box of 50 stickers will cost $13

Hope this helps :)

You hike 190 meters up a steep hill that has a 33∘ angle of elevation as shown in the diagram.

Answer:

b = 159 m

a = 103 m

angle B is 57 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s start with getting the measure of angle B

Mathematically, since we have a right triangle , we have to subtract the given angle from 90 to get the other acute angle

So we have the measure of B as;

90-33 = 57 degrees

To get the value of a, we use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

a faces the angle 33, that makes it an opposite to that angle

190 faces the right angle and that makes it the hypotenuse

Mathematically , the relationship between the two is that trigonometrically, they are related by the sine which is the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

so, we have it that;

sine 33 = a/190

a = 190 * sine 33

a = 103 m

to get b, it is adjacent to the given angle

So with the hypotenuse, the ratio between it and the hypotenuse is the cosine

so;

cos 33 = b/190

b = 190 * cos 33

b = 159 m
