Ok, so.

You first need to find the height of the shorts guy's setup. We know that the length of the base is 14.5, and that theta is 46 degrees. The opposite side equals tan46 * 14.5, which is 14.935. 14.935 is the height of the short guy's height. Now onto the other dude. We know that the height of his setup is 4.2 more than the shorts guy, which is equal to 19.13. Finally, to find the angle, theta, of the second guy, we take 19.13 / 14.5 and then take the inverse tangent of that number (1.31) which equals approximately 52.6 degrees.

Two smoothies and an ice cream cone cost $7.50. Three smoothies and two ice cream cones cost $12. Calculate the cost of a smooth
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Smoothie = 3

Ice cream = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2s + i = 7.5

3s + 2i = 12

subtract the equations

(3s + 2i) - (2s + i) = s + i

s + i = 4.5

2s + i = 7.5,  so s must equal 3 (7.5 - 4.5)

If s = 3, then i is 1.5 (4.5 - 3.5)

To check, plug 3 and 1.5 into s and i.

2(3) + 1.5 = 7.5

6 + 1.5 = 7.5

7.5 = 7.5

3(3) + 2(1.5) = 12

9 + 3 = 12

12 = 12
