Answer:

4y-6/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens.

Number of boxes of pen = 4

Number of pens per box = y

Total number of pens = 4 x y = 4y

She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes told her 17 students to divide the remaining pens equally among themselves.

Total number of pens left = 4y - 6

Number of students = 17

Answer:

x = (4y-6)/17

where x is the  number of pens each student got.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of boxes = 4

no. of pen in 1 box = y

total no, of pens in 4 box =  No. of boxes *no. of pen in 1 box = 4y

No. of pen took away by Jaden's teacher = 6

no. of pens left = 4y - 6

This, 4y - 6 pen has to be divided among 17 students.

Let  each student get x pen

thus, total no. of pen got by 17 student  = 17x

This, 17x should be equal to total no. of pens available which is 4y-6

17x = 4y-6

=> x = (4y-6)/17

Thus, expression to represent  number of pens each student got

is x = (4y-6)/17

Given a triangle with: a =<br> 150, A = 75°, and C = 30°<br> Using the law of sines gives: c = 0
koban [17]

Answer:

c = 77.6

Step-by-step explanation:

You may have entered the measure of a side as the measure of an angle.

\dfrac{\sin A}{a} = \dfrac{\sin C}{c}

\dfrac{\sin 75^\circ}{150} = \dfrac{\sin 30^\circ}{c}

c\sin 75^\circ = 150 \sin 30^\circ

c = \dfrac{150 \sin 30^\circ}{\sin 75^\circ}

c = 77.6

You are correct. Good job!

Find the sum of a finite geometric series. The Smiths spent $2,000 on clothes in a particular year. If they increase the amount
boyakko [2]

\bf \stackrel{\textit{first year}}{2000}~~,~~\stackrel{\textit{second year}}{2000+\stackrel{\textit{10\% of 2000}}{\frac{2000}{10}}}\implies 2200

now, if we take 2000 to be the 100%, what is 2200? well, 2200 is just 100% + 10%, namely 110%, and if we change that percent format to a decimal, we simply divide it by 100, thus \bf 110\%\implies \cfrac{110}{100}\implies 1.1.

so, 1.1 is the decimal number we multiply a term to get the next term, namely 1.1 is the common ratio.

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence}\\\\S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad \begin{cases}n=n^{th}\ term\\a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\r=\textit{common ratio}\\----------\\a_1=2000\\r=1.1\\n=4\end{cases}\\\\\\S_4=2000\left[ \cfrac{1-(1.1)^4}{1-1.1} \right]\implies S_4=2000\left(\cfrac{-0.4641}{-0.1}  \right)\\\\\\S_4=2000(4.641)\implies S_4=9282

In the figure above, the vertices of square
Olin [163]

(C) 6 + 3√3

<u>Explanation:</u>

Area of the square = 3

a X a = 3

a² = 3

a = √3

Therefore, QR, RS, SP, PQ = √3

ΔBAC ≅ ΔBQR

Therefore,

\frac{BQ}{BA} = \frac{QR}{AC}

\frac{BQ}{BA} = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{BA}

In ΔBAC, BA = AC = BC because the triangle is equilateral

So,

BQ = √3

So, BQ, QR, BR = √3 (equilateral triangle)

Let AP and SC be a

So, AQ and RC will be 2a

In ΔAPQ,

(AP)² + (QP)² = (AQ)²

(a)² + (√3)² = (2a)²

a² + 3 = 4a²

3 = 3a²

a = 1

Similarly, in ΔRSC

(SC)² + (RS)² = (RC)²

(a)² + (√3)² = (2a)²

a² + 3 = 4a²

3 = 3a²

a = 1

So, AP and SC = 1

and AQ and RC = 2 X 1 = 2

Therefore, perimeter of the triangle = BQ + QA + AP + PS + SC + RC + BR

Perimeter = √3 + 2 + 1 + √3 + 1 + 2 + √3

Perimeter = 6 + 3√3

Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle is 6 + 3√3
