Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2} x - 3

x + y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the kitten's weight be y and the cat's weight be x

<u><em>Condition # 1: </em></u>

y = \frac{1}{2} x - 3

<u><em>Condition # 2:</em></u>

x + y = 18

A triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 6. If sin aº
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

24 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 6. If sin a° = four fifths and segment DE measures 30 units, how long is segment EF?

triangle DEF in which angle F is a right angle, angle D measures a degrees, and angle E measures b degrees

15.5 units

24 units

30 units

37.5 units

From the description:

angle D measures a degrees

opposite to angle D is side EF

side DE (which measures 30 units) is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

We also know that

\sin (a) = \frac{4}{5}

\sin (a) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

From definition:

\sin (a) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Replacing:

\frac{4}{5} =\frac{ EF}{DE} \\\\EF = \frac{4}{5} *DE\\\\EF = \frac{4}{5} *30 \\\\= 24 units

A restaurant wants to study how well its salads sell. The circle graph shows the sales over the past few days. If 35 of the sala
balu736 [363]
The restaurants sold 50 salads.

-The given is that they sold 35 garden salads which is 70% of their sales.
-Now, to get how many salads 1% is equal to, you divide 35 by 70
-35/70 = 0.5
-So now, multiply 16 by 0.5 and 14 by 0.5
-16(0.5)=8 and 14(0.5)=7
-Add the three together to get 50
-Now, check to see if it works
70% of 50 is 35
16% of 50 is 8
14% of 50 is 7

Hope this helps and is right, have a good day!
