Let d = # digital cameras
Let m = # manual cameras

d + m = 240 equation 1

(d-82) = 3(m-26) equation 2
d - 82 = 3m - 78
d - 3m = 82 - 78
d - 3m = 16 equation 2 simplified

We have two equations with 2 unknowns:

d + m = 240
d - 3m = 16 subtract equation 1 from equation 2
---------------
-4m = -224
m = -224/-4
m = 56

d + m = 240
d = 240-m
d = 240-56
d = 184

He started with 184 digital cameras and 56 manual cameras

A rectangle is measured 6.5 cm by 7.8 cm .
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

3.24%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage error =[ (|calculated value  - actual value) / actual value] x 100

calculated area = length x width

6.5 x 7.8 = 50.7

[(|50.7 - 52.4|] / 52.4] x 100 = 3,24

denpristay [2]

Answer:

A = 201.06  square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of the pizza is 8 inches.

It is required to find the area of the pizza get by Emily's family.

Pizza is in the shape of circle. Area of a circular figure is given by :

A=\pi r^2\\\\A=\pi (8)^2\\\\A=201.06\ in^2

So, the Emily's family will get 201.06 square inches of pizza.

HELP WITH THIS QUESTION???
schepotkina [342]

❇Answer: y=-5x+5

❇Explanation:

First I'll write down the points given:

(-2,15)➡1st point=(x1,y1)

(2,-5)➡ 2nd point=(x2,y2)

(6,-25)➡ 3rd point=(x3,y3)

(10,-45)➡4th point=(x4,y4)

Calculating slope using 1st and 2nd points:

slope= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(-5-15)/[2-(-2)]

=-20/4

=-5

Calculating slope using 3rd and 4th points:

slope= (y4-y3)/(x4-x3)

=[-45-(-25)]/(10-6)

=-20/4

=-5

Since slope of first two points and last two points are equal, all of these points lie on same line whose equation can be given in slope-intercept form as,

↪y=mx+c {m is slope}

↪y=-5x+c➡Eqn(1)

Let (0,c) be any point cutting y-axis making

y-intercept=c

Lets take 1st point and (0,c) and apply slope formula,

slope=(c-15)/[0-(-2)]

↪-5=(c-15)/2

↪c-15=-10

↪c=15-10

↪c=5

Put value of c in Eqn(1),

↪y=-5x+5
