Answer: chicken $8, duck $5
Explanation:
x - the cost of a chicken
y - the cost of a duck
he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y = 550
he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532
50x + 30y = 550 divide by 10
44x + 36y = 550 divide by 4
______________
50x/10 + 30y/10 = 550/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4
______________
5x + 3y = 55
Multiply by (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
5x * (-3) + 3y * (-3) = 55 * (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
-15x - 9y = -165
11x + 9y = 133
______________
Sum up:
-4x + 0y = -32
-4x = -32
x = -32/-4
x = 8
Since 5x + 3y = 55 and x = 8, then:
5 * 8 + 3y = 55
40 + 3y = 55
3y = 55 - 40
3y = 15
y = 15/3
y = 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we find the slope
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-3,7)....x1 = -3 and y1 = 7
(9,-1)...x2 = 9 and y2 = -1
now we sub
slope(m) = (-1 - 7) / (9 - (-3) = -8 / (9 + 3) = -8 / 12 reduces to - 2/3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
use either of ur points...I will use (-3,7)...x = -3 and y = 7
now we sub and find b, the y intercept
7 = -2/3(-3) + b
7 = 2 + b
7 - 2 = b
5 = b
so ur equation is : y = -2/3x + 5 <===
Answer:
120cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle has a perimeter of 120 cm and two sides of 30 cm and 40 cm. Calculates the area. A right triangle has a cathetus of 10 cm and the hypotenuse 26 cm.
Answer:
<u></u>
Explanation:
The text and the model are garbled.
This is the question amended:
<em />
<em>Hyun Woo is riding a ferris wheel. H(t) models his height (in m) above the ground, t seconds after the ride starts. Here, t is entered in radians.</em>
<em>H(t) = -10 cos(2π/150 t)+10</em>
<em />
<em>When does Hyun Woo first reach a height of 16 m?</em>
<em />
<h2>Solution</h2>
<em />
When <em>Hyun Woo reaches a height of 16 m</em> the <em>model </em>states:
- <em>16 = -10 cos(2π/150 t)+10</em>
<em />
Then you must find the lowest positive value of t that is a solution of the equation.
Solve the equation:
- <em>16 = -10 cos(2π/150 t)+10</em>
- t = 52.86s ≈ 53 s ← answer
