What is the solution to the following system of linear equations?

1 answer:

8 0

x − 2y = −1 => x = 2y -1

2x + y = −12
2(2y - 1) + y = -12
4y - 2 + y = -12
5y = -10
y = -2
x = 2·(-2) - 1
x = -4 - 1
x = -5

What is the cost of constructing a fence 6 and a half feet (6'6") high around a lot measuring 90 ft by 175 ft; if the cost of er

creativ13 [48]

Based on the given values, I can only assume that the fence forms a rectangular shape. With this, the perimeter of the lot is:

Perimeter of lot = 2 * 90 + 2 * 175

Perimeter of lot = 180 + 350

Perimeter of lot = 530 feet

Since the cost per linear feet (perimeter) is $1.25, therefore the cost of erecting the fence is:
Cost of erecting fence = $1.25 * 530

Cost of erecting fence = $662.50

The area of the fence would be equal to the perimeter multiplied by the height:
Area of fence = 530 feet long * 6.5 feet high

Area of fence = 3445 square feet

Then the cost of materials will be:
Cost of materials = 3445 * $.825

Cost of materials = $2,842.13

Therefore the total cost would be: 
Total cost = $662.50 + $2,842.13

Total cost = $3504.63

Given:

Radius of the circle = 6 inches

Central angle = 75 degrees.

To find:

The length of subtended arc, i.e., x.

Solution:

The formula for arc length is:

$s=2\pi r\times \dfrac{\theta}{360^\circ}$

Where, r is the radius and $\theta$ is the central angle.

Putting $s=x, r=6, \pi=3.14, \theta =75^\circ$ in the above formula, we get

$x=2(3.14)(6)\times \dfrac{75^\circ}{360^\circ}$

$x=2(3.14)(6)\times \dfrac{5}{24}$

$x=7.85$

$x\approx 7.9$

Therefore, the value of x is 7.9 inches.
