Solution:

We are given that

Shaneese is buying peanuts and cashews.

he has $12 to spend.

peanuts cost $3 per pound and cashews cost $4 per pound.

she buys x pounds of peanuts and y pounds of cashews.

The equation that represents the amount of each is 3x + 4y = 12.

Now we have been asked to find the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept , we need to set x=0

when x=0, equation becomes

3*0 + 4y = 12.

0 + 4y = 12.

4y = 12.

Divide both the sides by 4 we get

y = 3

Hence the y-intercept is 3.

Two-thirds of a number added to itself is 20. What is the number?
vivado [14]

Answer:

12

2/3 x + 3/3x = 20

5/3 x = 20   ... times 3/5 both sides

x = 12

Estimate the value 9.03 + 19.87 x 3.11 - 4.97
dybincka [34]

Answer:

82

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem you would first round everything. 9.03 becomes 9, 19.87 becomes 20, 3.11 becomes 3 and 4.97 becomes 5. You then just do the problem. 9 + 20 = 29, multiplied by 3 makes 87, 87 - 5 = 82.

For this case we have by definition of trigonometric relations of rectangular triangles that, the sine of an angle is given by the opposite leg to the angle on the hypotenuse of the triangle. Then according to the figure we have:

Sin (40) = \frac {CA} {7}

We cleared CA:

AC = 7 * Sin (40)

Option A
