3 is a whole number while 2/3 is less than 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
Using proportion
Answer:
(x, y) = (2, 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
For the triangles to be congruent, the hypotenuses must be the same length:
y = x + 7
and the marked leg must be the same length in each triangle:
y -3 = 4x -2
These are two equations in two unknowns (a "system" of equations) that can be solved in any of the usual ways. Since the first equation gives an expression for y, it is convenient to substitute that into the second equation:
(x +7) -3 = 4x -2
x +4 = 4x -2 . . . . . . collect terms
x +6 = 4x . . . . . . . . .add 2
6 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract x
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
y = 2 + 7 = 9 . . . . . .substitute for x in the first equation
The values you're looking for are x = 2, y = 9.
Total amount = $80
Amount spent on Monday = 3/5 x 80 = $48
Amount remaining = $80 - $48 = $32
The money is spent over 5 days:
5 days = $32
1 day = $32 ÷ 5 = $6.40
Answer: She spent $6.40 on each of the 5 days.
