Answer:

Dryer cost $475;  Washer cost $382

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will simply set up a system of equations to find the value of each the washer (variable x) and the dryer (variable y).

We are given the washer and dryer cost $857 together.

x + y = 857

We are also given that the washer cost $93 less than the dryer.

x = y - 93

So to find the cost of the dryer, we simply need to find the value of y.

x + y = 857

x = y - 93

( y - 93 ) + y = 857

2y - 93 = 857

2y = 950

y = 475

So now we have the value of the dry to be $475.  We can check this by simply plugging in the value and see if it makes sense.

x + y = 857

x + 475 = 857

x = 382

And check this value:

x = y - 93

382 ?= 475 - 93

382 == 382

Therefore, we have found the values of both the washer and the dryer.

Cheers.

What is the porosity of the gravel sample?(The sediment volume for each sample is 400ml. ) a. 23. 75% b. 28. 75% c. 55. 75% d. 8
Anna [14]

The porosity of the gravel sample is 28.75%

We have to determine.

What is the porosity of the gravel sample?

<h3>The porosity of the gravel sample;</h3>

Porosity is the term which is defined as the volume of voids present in the soil to the total volume of the soil.

The formula used to calculate the Porosity is;

\rm Porosity =\dfrac{Volume \ of \ voids \ present \ in soil}{Volume \ of \ soil}

A sponge is a case of a permeable fabric because it incorporates a huge number of purge spaces compared to its volume.

Porosity is the property of a question that communicates the entire volume of purge or pore space within the material.

Hence, the porosity of the gravel sample is 28.75%

See the picture to better understand the problem

we know that
in the triangle ABC
∠A+∠B+∠C=180°
find ∠C
∠C=180-[80+65]------> ∠C=35°

Applying the law of sines

AB/sin C=CB/sin A
solve for CB
CB=AB*sin A/sin C-----> CB=45*sin 65/sin 35-----> CB=71.10 ft

the answer is
<span>the distance from person B to the top of the hill is 71.10 feet</span>
