Answer:

Sydney = 22 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

DeVaughn = D

Sydney = S

D = 3S

D + S = 88

Substitute in 3S for D

3S + S = 88

4S = 1888

S = 22

Hope this helps :)

The top and bottom margins of a poster are each 15 cm and the side margins are each 10 cm. If the area of printed material on th
12345 [234]

Answer:

the dimension of the poster = 90 cm length and 60 cm  width i.e 90 cm by 60 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question.

Let p be the length of the of the printed material

Let q be the width of the of the printed material

Therefore pq = 2400 cm ²

q = \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p}

To find the dimensions of the poster; we have:

the length of the poster to be p+30 and the width to be \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p} + 20

The area of the printed material can now be:  A = (p+30)(\dfrac{2400 }{p} + 20)

=2400 +20 p +\dfrac{72000}{p}+600

Let differentiate with respect to p; we have

\dfrac{dA}{dp}= 20 - \dfrac{72000}{p^3}

Also;

\dfrac{d^2A}{dp^2}= \dfrac{144000}{p^3}

For the smallest area \dfrac{dA}{dp }=0

20 - \dfrac{72000}{p^2}=0

p^2 = \dfrac{72000}{20}

p² = 3600

p =√3600

p = 60

Since p = 60 ; replace p = 60 in the expression  q = \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p}   to solve for q;

q = \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p}

q = \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{60}

q = 40

Thus; the printed material has the length of 60 cm and the width of 40cm

the length of the poster = p+30 = 60 +30 = 90 cm

the width of the poster = \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p} + 20 = \dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{60} + 20  = 40 + 20 = 60

Hence; the dimension of the poster = 90 cm length and 60 cm  width i.e 90 cm by 60 cm.

Verify the identity: (1-sinx)/cosx = cosx/(1+sinx)
Tresset [83]
Cross multiply the expression so that we can get

(1+sinx)(1-sinx) = cos^2 x

1 - sin^2 x = cos^2 x

cos^2 x + sin^2 x = 1

since

cos^2 x + sin^2 x = 1 

therefore 

1 = 1

the two expressions are identical in a trigonometric sense

A particular chemistry book costs $6 less than a particular physics book, while two such chemistry books and three such physics
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the Physics book costs $x

The Chemistry book will cost $x - $6

Two such Chemistry books will cost;

2($x - $6) = $(2x - 12)

Three such Physics books cost $3x

$(2x - 12) + $3x = $123

$5x - $12 = $123

$5x = $111

x = $22\frac{1}{5}

So the Physics book costs;  $22\frac{1}{5}

and the Chemistry book costs  $22\frac{1}{5} - 6 =  $16\frac{1}{5}

On Saturday, many tickets for a hockey game were sold. Children and adult tickets were sold in the ratio of 4:7. There are 88 ti
Illusion [34]

Answer:

49 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

THis is pretty straight forward

So we have the ratio 4:7

We know there were 88 tickets in total but we don’t know the exact amount of adult and kids

So we can Add up the ratio

4+7=11

Now we can divide 88 by 11

you’ll get 7

So by doing this we know there are 7 groups of the ratio for child to adults 4:7

So we just multiply the 7 to each

4*7

7*7

you’ll get 28:49

Now we know there are 28 kid tickets and 49 adult tickets

We know this is correct becuase if you add up the ratio, it’ll be 88

Which is the same as the amount fo people at the hockey game
