Answer:
a=8
c=5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
solve simultaneously:
2a + 4c = 38.00
3a + 3c = 40.50
times the first eq. by 3 and the second by 2
6a + 12c = 114
6a +6c = 81
subtract from one another
6a + 12c = 114
-6a +6c = 81
6c = 33
c=5.5
3a + 3x5.5 = 40.50
3a= 24
a=8
Answer:
$76.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that inflation from last year to this year was 2% and a pair of designer jeans sold for $75 last year. We are asked to find the price of pair of designer jeans this year.
An inflation of 2% will increase the price of pair of jeans by 2%, so price of pair of jeans this year would be $75 plus 2% of $75.




Therefore, the price of pair of jeans would be $76.5 this year.
Here we are finding x, given the angle and adjacent side. To find x we will use the function cos as cos = a/h.
So let's do cos(35°) = 15cm / x
cos(35°) = 0.8 (1 dp)
x = 15 cm / cos(35°)
x = 18.3 cm (1 dp)
Perimeter = 26 Explanation: count the sides of the shape then add them all
