Answer:
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
6 * y * 4 = 2 * 72
y = 2 * 72/24 = 6
Let the number of apples be x and that of pears be y, then:
0.64x + 0.45y = 5.26 . . . (1)
0.32x + 0.39y = 3.62 . . . (2)
(2) x 2 => 0.64x + 0.78y = 7.24 . . . (3)
(1) - (3) => -0.33y = -1.98
y = -1.98 / -0.33 = 6
From (2), 0.32x + 0.39(6) = 3.62
0.32x = 3.62 - 2.34 = 1.28
x = 1.28 / 0.32 = 4
Therefore, he bought 4 apples and 6 pears.
Answer:
We have the magnitude, M, and the angle A.
(The angle is always measured from the +x-axis)
Then we have that:
x = M*cos(A)
y = M*sin(A)
in this case:
M = 9m
A = -80°
x = 9m*cos(-80°) = 1.562
y = 9m*sin(-80) = -8.86m
Now, the component parallel to the x axis is:
x = 9m*cos(-80°) = 1.562 m
And the slope of something parallel to the x-axis is always zero, as this is a constant line.
