Each year lizzy e's school purchases students agenda books, which are sold in the school store.This year, the school purchased 3

50 books at a cost of $1,137.50. If the school would like to make a profit of 1,500 to help pay for field trips and school activities, what is the least amount they can charge for each agenda book? Explain how you found your answer.

In order to make back the money they spent ($1,137.50) plus $1500, they want to make 1137.5+1500=2637.5 $2,637.50 total. 

They want to make this amount by selling 350 agendas, so divide the amount they want to make by 350 to find the amount per book:
2637.5/350=7.54
I rounded the answer to the nearest hundredth because the hundredth is the smallest amount we have in USD (the penny.)
So they need to charge at least $7.54 to make back their money plus $1500.

Hope I helped, and let me know if you have any questions :)

The answer is c (4, 1) because when you add 1 to the x value it moves right one and then when you subtract 3 from the y value it goes down 3 making it (4, 1)

Simplify 7x + 7 + 6x - 9.<br><br> 13x - 2<br> 13x + 2<br> 11x
nikklg [1K]
To do this you must combine like terms as follows.

7x + 6x = 13x
7 - 9 = -2 

Combine these together and you will get the following.

13 - 2 or -2 +13

Fred the owl is looking down at a 67° angle from the top of a tree that is 15 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. How f
guapka [62]

Answer:

Fred     C. 16.30 ft

Gary     B. 169.67 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Fred the owl...

Always <u>draw a diagram first</u> (see diagram below). We assume trees are perpendicular (at 90°) to the ground. The situation forms a right-angle triangle.

We need to <u>find "x"</u>, which is the direct distance between the owl and the bird. "x" is also the hypotenuse, which is the longest side in a right-angle triangle. Since we know a side and an angle, we can find the hypotenuse using primary trigonometry ratios.

∠B will be the angle of reference (the angle we are "talking" about). The side we know is opposite to ∠B (15ft). We know it's opposite because it's not touching the angle. The side we need to find is the hypotenuse.

<u>Use the trig. ratio sine</u> because it has opposite and hypotenuse in it. The general formula is:

sinθ = opp/hyp

θ means the angle, and we know it is 67°.

Replace all the information you know:

sinB = opp/hyp

sin67° = (15ft) / x     Isolate "x". Rearrange the equation.

xsin67° = (15ft)         Divide both sides by sin67°

x = (15ft) / sin67°

x = 16.295... ft   Exact answer in decimals

x ≈ 16.30 ft     Rounded to nearest hundredth

Therefore Fred the owl is 16.30 feet from the bird.

Gary spots a monkey...

Draw a diagram first (see below). G is Gary, M is the monkey, T is the bottom of the Sears Tower. We need to <u>find "x"</u>, which is the distance between the monkey and the bottom of the tower.

The angle of reference is M, which is 69°. We need to find the adjacent side and we know the opposite side. <u>The trig. ratio that has adjacent and opposite is tangent.</u>

tanθ = opp/adj

Replace all the information you know:

tanM = opp/adj

tan69° = (442m) / x    Rearrange the formula to isolate "x"

xtan69° = 442m         Divide both sides by tan69°

x = 442m / tan69°      Solve by dividing

x = 169.6679.... m    Exact decimal answer

x ≈ 169.67m            Rounded to the nearest hundredth

Therefore the monkey is 169.67 metres from the tower.

Remember all the trig. ratios using the acronym SohCahToa.

o = opposite side

a = adjacent side

h = hypotenuse side

S = sine, sin for short

C = cosine, cos for short

T = tangent, tan for short

The operation is always dividing the first side in the acronym by the second side.

sinθ = opp/hyp

cosθ = adj/hyp

tanθ = opp/adj
