<span>Let x=apples that Andre picks
Then x/3=apples that Maria picks
And 2x=apples that Jane picks 
So, 
x +(x/3)+2x=840 multiply each term by 3</span>

Harrison has $9.30 in his coin collection all in pennies and dimes the number of dimes is three times the number of pennies how
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Number of Pennies = 30

Number of Dimes = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pennies be p and number of dimes be d

We can write 2 equations and use substitution method to solve.

<u>Total value of all the coins is 9.30:</u>

We can write:

0.01p + 0.1d = 9.30

Note: value of penny is 0.01 and dime is 0.1, in dollars

<u>Number of dimes is 3 times number of pennies:</u>

We can write:

d = 3p

Now putting 2nd equation in first and solving for p:

0.01p + 0.1(3p) = 9.30

0.01p + 0.3p = 9.30

0.31 p = 9.30

p = 9.30 /0.31

p = 30

Now we know d = 3p, so d = 3 (30) = 90

Hence

Number of Pennies = 30

Number of Dimes = 90

The graph of f(x) = |x| is transformed to g(x) = |x + 1| – 7. On which interval is the function decreasing?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

g is decreasing for all x less than or equal to -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the function y = |x| looks like a "vee."

g(x) = |x + 1| - 7 moves that graph 1 unit to the <u>left</u><em> </em>(I know, it looks backwards!) and down 7 units. See attached image.

Function g(x) is decreasing for all x \le -1.

If
arlik [135]

Given:

In a right angle triangle θ is an acute angle and \tan\theta =\dfrac{3}{5}.

To find:

The value of \cos \theta.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

\tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}

We have,

\tan\theta =\dfrac{3}{5}

It means the ratio of perpendicular to base is 3:5. Let 3x be the perpendicular and 5x be the base.

By using Pythagoras theorem,

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{Perpendicular^2+base^2}

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(3x)^2+(5x)^2}

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{9x^2+25x^2}

Hypotenuse=\sqrt{34x^2}

Hypotenuse=x\sqrt{34}

In a right angle triangle,

\cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}

\cos \theta=\dfrac{5x}{x\sqrt{34}}

\cos \theta=\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{34}}

Therefore, the value of \cos \theta is \dfrac{5}{\sqrt{34}}.

Find the M&lt;6 if m&lt;2 = 75
ryzh [129]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

angle 2 and angle 6 are corresponding angles, because the lines are parallel and cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are congruent, thus if angle 2 is 75 degrees then angle 6 is 75 degrees
