For the class of 2013's prom Norman's dress shop sold cheaper dresses for $90 each and more expensive dresses for $140 each. The
Tema [17]

Answer:

Number of cheaper dresses sold  is 35

Number of expensive  dresses sold  is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of cheaper dresses = $90

Cost of  expensive dresses = $140

Total cost of  the dresses = $5250

To Find:

Number of cheaper dress = ?

Number of expensive  dress = ?

Solution:

Let

The number of  cheaper dresses be x

The number of  expensive dresses be y

(Number of cheaper dresses X cost of cheap dress) +  (Number of Expensive dresses X cost of  expensive dress)  =  $5250

x \times90 +y \times 140 = 5250=  $5250

It is given that the 20 more of the cheaper dresses than the expensive dresses is sold

So,

number of cheaper dress  =  20  +  number of expensive dress

x = 20 + y---------------------------------------(1)

(20+y) \times90 +y \times 140 = 5250 = 5250

(20 \times 90 +y\times 90) +y \times 140= 5250

1800 + 90y+ 140y = 5250

1800 + 230y = 5250

230y =5250 -1800

230y = 3450

y = \frac{3450}{230}

y = 15

Substituting y in (1)

x = 20 +15

x= 35

There are 45 new houses being built in a neighborhood Last month, 1/3 of them were sold. This month, 1/5 of the remaining houses
goldfiish [28.3K]
1/3 of 45 is 15.

So 45-15= 30.

1/5 of 30 is 6.

So 30-6=24.

There are 24 houses left to be sold.

In circle O, chord AOB is drawn. Point C is located on the exterior of the circle with tangent CB and secant CDA drawn.Itisknown
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

  (a) 4

  (b) 2√3

  (c) 60°

  (d) 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The relationship between tangents and secants is ...

  CB^2 = CD·CA

Filling in the given values, we find ...

  CB^2 = 2·(2+6) = 16

  CB = √16 = 4

The length of BC is 4 units.

__

(b) Triangle ABC is a right triangle, so the sides of it satisfy the Pythagorean theorem.

  CA^2 = CB^2 +AB^2

  8^2 = 16 +AB^2

  AB = √48 = 4√3

The radius is half the length of AB, so the radius is 2√3.

__

(c) The measure of angle C can be determined from the cosine relation:

  cos(C) = CB/CA = 4/8 = 1/2

  C = arccos(1/2) = 60°

The measure of angle C is 60°.

__

(d) Arc AD is intercepted by angle ABD, which has the same measure as angle C. Hence the measure of arc AD is twice the measure of angle C.

The measure of arc AD is 120°.
