Answer:

<u>The number of associates = 6  and the number of partners = 4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of associates = x

let the number of partners  = y

The law firm assigned a total of 10 lawyers

∴ x + y = 10

∴ y = 10 - x ⇒ (1)

$8000 per day charged for these lawyers, The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $600 and the daily rate for each partner is $1100.

∴ 600x + 1100 y = 8000 ⇒ (2)

By substitute from (1) at (2)

600 x + 1100 (10 - x) = 8000

solve for x

600 x + 11000 - 1100 x = 8000

-500 x = -3000

x = -3000/-500 = 6

At (1) to find y

y = 10 - 6 = 4

<u>So, the number of associates = 6  and the number of partners = 4</u>

Consider kite WXYZ. What are the values of a and b? a = 4; b = 10. a = 4; b = 40, a = 8; b = 10, a = 8; b = 40
Brut [27]

Check the picture below.

let's recall that a kite is a quadrilateral, and thus is a polygon with 4 sides

sum of all interior angles in a polygon

180(n - 2)      n = number of sides

so for a quadrilateral that'd be 180( 4 - 2 ) = 360, thus

\bf 3b+70+50+3b=360\implies 6b+120=360\implies 6b=240 \\\\\\ b=\cfrac{240}{6}\implies b=40 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \overline{XY}=\overline{YZ}\implies 3a-5=a+11\implies 2a-5=11 \\\\\\ 2a=16\implies a=\cfrac{16}{2}\implies a=8

• Yogi is planning a concert for his animal friends. He arranges his chairs and if he makes 8 rows he was
qaws [65]

Answer: Yogi has 59 chairs.

Step-by-step explanation: For the question, it's a lot of guess an check. 10 is a good place to start. Times 10 by 8 and add 3. Then times 6 by 10 and add 17. Does it equal the same number? No. Is it close? Yes. So maybe try going up a few numbers or down a few. You'll eventually get 7 which when you multiple 7 by 8 and add 3 and multiple 6 by 10 and add 17, you'll get 59.
