Answer: Joe's weekly allowance = $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe spent half of his weekly allowance playing mini-golf

Let a = his weekly allowance

This means Joe spent a/2 playing mini-golf.

To earn money, his parents let him weed the garden for $6

This means Joe's total money

= a + 6

What is his weekly allowance if he ended with $12?

This means he had $12 left after spending a/2 from ta total of (a +6)

Therefore,

(a +6) -a/2 = 12

Taking LCM of 2

[2(a+6)-a]/2=12

Cross multiplying by 2

2a + 12-a = 24

a+12 =24

a = 24-12 =$12

Joe's weekly allowance = $12

Write a linear equation that has a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept at the origin.
Nata [24]

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is the most commonly used linear equation:

It goes like this:

y=mx+b

In this equation, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Your line has a slope of 1/2. So, your m-value is 1/2.

y=1/2x+b

B, your y-intercept, is at the origin.

The origin is the point (0,0).

So b, is 0 (y-intercept is the y-value when x is 0)

y=1/2x+0

=

y=1/2x

Given that y= 12 cm and θ= 24 °, work out x rounded to 1 DP.<br><br> (not drawn to scale.)
padilas [110]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf x = 5.3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given:</u></h3>

y = 12 cm

θ = 24°

Using trigonometric ratio, tan.

\displaystyle \boxed{tan \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} }\\\\tan \ 24 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\0.445 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\Multiply \ 12 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\0.445 \times 12 = x\\\\5.3 = x\\\\x = 5.3\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}
