Answer:a = - 2

b = - 3

c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a + 5b - c = - 20 - - - - - - - - - 1

4a - 5b + 4c = 19 - - - - - - - - - 2

-a - 5b - 5c = 2 - - - - - - - - - - - 3

Adding equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

- 6c = - 18

c = - 18/ - 6 = 3

Multiplying equation 2 by 1 and equation 3 by 4, it becomes

4a - 5b + 4c = 19

-4a - 20b - 20c = 8

Adding both equations, it becomes

- 25b - 16c = 27

- 25b = 27 + 16c = 27 + 16 × 3

- 25b = 75

b = 75/- 25 = - 3

Substituting b = - 3 and c = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

a + 5 × - 3 - 3 = - 20

a - 15 - 3 = - 20

a - 18 = - 20

a = - 20 + 18 = - 2

One of the legs of a right triangle is 9 cm. If the area of the triangle is 225 cm², then the length of the other leg is
ioda

Given:

One of the legs of a right triangle is 9 cm.

The area of the triangle is 225 cm².

To find:

The length of the other leg.

Solution:

The area of a triangle is

Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Base\times Height

The area of a right triangle is

Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (leg_1)\times (leg_2)

Let x be the length of other leg.

225=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (9)\times (x)

2\times 225=9x

\dfrac{450}{9}=x

50=x

Therefore, the length of the other leg is 50 cm.

aksik [14]

Answer:

15 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

We need 5 liters of Yoda soda for 12 guest.

To find:

If we have 36 guest how many liters of Yoda soda we need.

Solution:

<u>By unitary method:</u>

For 12 guests, we need liters of Yoda soda = 5

For 1 guest, we need liters of Yoda soda = \frac{5}{12}

For 36 guests, we need liters of Yoda soda = \frac{5}{12}\times36=\frac{180}{12} =15\ liters

Therefore, we need 15 liters of Yoda soda for 36 guests.

8 Graph the equation y = –20x + 500.
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to plot the y-intercept first so since we know that the y-intercept is 500 from the y=mx+b format, you have to plug in (0,500). Then, we use the slope or the m provided in the equation with is -20. This means you have to go down 20, and right 1 since it is -20/1 or 20 down and 1 run. then you just connect the dots to finish your line.
