Answer:

It will take nine years and four months for the refrigerator to pay for itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

The new refrigerator which costs $1200, saves the family 22% annually in energy cost.

Since the old refrigerator costs $580 to run, we want to determine how many years it will take for 22% of $580 per year to make $1200.

22% of $580

= 580 × 0.22

= 127.6

That is, it saved then $127.6 per year.

Now,

$1200/127.6

≈ 9.4

Which means, it will take 9 years and 4 months for the refrigerator to pay for itself.

Using the converse of Pythagorean Theorem and the law of sines and cosines solve the word problem.
Helga [31]

Answer:

It's the law of cosines

Step-by-step explanation:

law of cosines states that c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2} -2ab (cos(\alpha ))

so we know that a = 7, b = 4, and alpha would be 135 degrees, so just plugging it in gets us 49+16-2*7*4*(-0.707) = 65 + 39.59 = 104.59

What is the system of inequalities associated with the following graph?
slamgirl [31]

One line passes through the points (-2,3) and (0,-3) , it means the y intercept is b=-3

and slope m = \frac{(-3-3)}{0-(-2)}

= \frac{-6}{2}= -3

So the equation of line will be y= -3x -3

And the inequality should be y\geq -3x-3

Or 3x +y \geq -3

And the other line passes through (-2,3) and (0,2)

So the y intercept is b=2

and the slope is m= \frac{2-3}{0-(-2)} = \frac{-1}{2}

So the equation of line will be y= \frac{-1}{2} x +2\\and the inequality should be  y \leq \frac{-1}{2} x+2

Or

2y +x \leq 4

So answer is 3x +y \geq -3,  x+2y\leq 4

Wittaler [7]
7 total cups of flour divided by 2.33 cups of flour needed per batch of 24 muffins equals three batches, then multiply total number of batches by number of muffins in each batch- 3x24- gives you a total of 72 muffins
