Answer: 56 large cars and 86 small cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call:

l: the number of large cars.

s: the number of small cars.

Then, you can set up the following system of equations:

\left \{ {{l+s=142} \atop {5.50l+4.0s=652.50}} \right.

You can use the Elimination Method:

- Multiply the first equation by -4.0

- Add both equations.

- Solve for l.

\left \{ {{-4.0l-4.0s=-568} \atop {5.50l+4.0s=652.50}} \right.\\--------\\1.5l=84.5

l≈56

Substitute l=56 into one of the original equations and solve for <em>s:</em>

<em> </em>56+s=142\\s=142-56\\s=86

Which is equivalent to sin-1(–0.4)? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a radian.
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

-0.41 radians

Step-by-step explanation

(Credit goes to calculista)

let

A---> the angle

if sin A=-0.4

then 

A=sin-1(-0.4)

using a calculator

A=-23.578°----> the angle A belong to the IV quadrant

convert to radians

if pi radians--]----> 180°

x--------> -23.578°

x=-23.578*pi/180----> x=-0.41 radians

The length of a square is 256m and the breadth is 238m what is the perimeter
Arturiano [62]

The perimeter is 988 meters

Further explanation:

The given square has different length and breadth which means that the given square is a rectangle.

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

P=2L+2W

Given

Length=L=256m

Breadth=W=238m

Putting the values in the formula:

P=2(256)+2(238)\\=512+476\\=988\ meters

The perimeter is 988 meters.
