Answer:
9a+18=9
9a=-9
a=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is a if the line is dotted/dashed. The answer is c if the line isn't dotted/dashed.
Answer:
-9
Step-by-step explanation:
-6a=54
you're trying to get a by its self so divide by -6 on both sides . To get a=54/-6=-9
Answer:
Adult ticket: $7
Child ticket: $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a system of equations where a represents the cost of one adult ticket and c is the cost of one child ticket:
2a + 3c = 20
a + 4c = 15
Solve by elimination by multiplying the bottom equation by -2:
2a + 3c = 20
-2a -8c = -30
Add them together:
-5c = -10
c = 2
Now, we can plug in 2 as c to find the value of a:
2a + 3c = 20
2a + 3(2) = 20
2a + 6 = 20
2a = 14
a = 7
Answer:
The answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hit 'em with the Law of Sines.
sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b.
Let's say x is equal to "A", thus 5 is "a".
sin(x)/5 = sin(B)/b.
We could go for the obvious choice for "B", which would be the 90 degrees shown. To solve for the hypotenuse which will be "b", let's use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 20^2 = c^2
25 + 400 = 425
sqrt(425) = about 20.6, which we can now substitute "b" with.
sin(x)/5 = sin(90)/20.6
sin(x)/5 = 1/20.6
sin(x)/5 = 0.04854...
sin(x) = 0.2427...
You can plug in sin^-1(0.2427) into your calculator, and you should end up with something like 14.047... which equates to answer choice C.
