S = large shrimp and p = popcorn shrimp

s + p = 10.....multiply by -1
5s + p = 30
---------------
-s -p = -10 (result of multiplying by -1)
5s + p = 30
---------------add
4s = 20
s = 20/4
s = 5

s + p = 10
5 + p = 10
p = 10 - 5
p = 5

so there was 5 lbs of large shrimp (s) and 5 lbs of popcorn shrimp (p) in the mixture

Hi,so I've tried solving this problem for a while and I just don't get it,if you could give me some ideas I would appreciate it.

Answer:

187 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom rectangle area is easy, it is 15*9 = 135 cm².

To find the area of the triangle, you only need the base width and its height (you don't need the hypotenuse). You can then use the formula: area triangle is base times half height.

The base width is 15-7 = 8 cm

The height is 22-9 = 13 cm

So the area of the triangle is 13*8/2 = 52 cm²

Together with the 135 of the rectangle that sums to 52+135 = 187 cm².

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

<u>Use the formula for area of the triangle:</u>

  • A = 1/2bh, where b- base, h- height or altitude
<h3>Part A</h3>

<u>The triangle i has:</u>

  • b = 4 cm, h = 1.5 cm

<u>The area is:</u>

  • A = 1/2*4*1.5 = 3 cm²
<h3>Part B</h3>

Triangles have same area as they are congruent.

<u>Total area is:</u>

  • 3*2 = 6 cm²

Plz help/ Trigonometric models and sine functions: plz show how you got and the GRAPH! Thx to anyone that can help
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

y=-2\sin(2x)-2 - The graph is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A sine function has the following key features:

Period = π , Amplitude = 2,  Midline: y = -2 , y-intercept: (0,-2)

The function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis.

To plot the graph :

Solution :

General form of sin function is y=A sin(Bx)+C

Where A is the amplitude

B=\frac{2\pi}{\text{Period}}

C is the midline    

Substitute the given key features  

A=2 , C=-2  

B=\frac{2\pi}{\pi}=2

The sin function is  y=2\sin(2x)-2

The function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis.

i.e, The coordinate became (x,y)→(x,-y)

The sin function is y=-2\sin(2x)-2

Now, We plot the graph of the sin function.

The graph is attached below.  

First point is midline i.e, (0,-2)

Minimum point is (\frac{\pi}{4},-4)

Match the area to each parallelogram and trapezoid.<br> brainliest
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Area of first shape is 288ft^{2}, area of second shape is 45m^{2}, area of third shape is 34in^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of first shape

A=bh

A=18*16

A=288

Second shape

A=bh

A=9*5

A=45

Third shape

A= 1/2 h(b1+b2)

A=1/24(12+5)

A=1/2*4(12+5)

A=1/2*4(17)

A=1/2*68

A=34

Can someone help me with this please
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

B = 22

C = 122

D = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles of a triangle add to 180. Take the measure of each angle add them together. Set them equal to 180.

2x + x + 4 + 7x - 4 = 180

10x = 180

x = 18

To find each angle, substitute x = 18.

Angle B is 18 + 4 = 22

Angle C is 7(18) - 4 = 122

Angle D is 2(18) = 36
