Answer:
x/20 = 5/x
x^2 = 100
x = 10
Let me know if this helps!
Let x represent the price they charge hardcover book and let y represent the price they charge for a paperback book.
4x + 10y = 62 . . . . . (1)
5x + 7y = 61 . . . . . . (2)
(1) x 5 ⇒ 20x + 50y = 310 . . . . (3)
(2) x 4 ⇒ 20x + 28y = 244 . . . . (4)
(3) - (4) ⇒ 22y = 66
y = 66 / 22 = 3
4x + 10(3) = 62
4x = 62 - 30 = 32
x = 32 / 4 = 8
Therefore, the price for a hardcover book is $8 and the price for a paperback book is $3.
Answer:
Y = 59.0°
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the cosine rule in terms of x, y and z
cosY = 
with x = 22, y = 20 and z = 18
cosY = 
= 
= 
, thus
Y = 
( ) ≈ 59.0° ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
no
22.25 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
First determine how long it will take her to read the entire book
20 pages 47 pages
-------------- = ----------------
35 minutes x minutes
Using cross products
20x = 35*47
20x=1645
Divide by 20
20x/20 = 1645/20
x =82.25 minutes
This is more than 1 hour ( 1 hour = 60 minutes)
82.25 minutes - 60 minutes = 22.25 minutes
She will need 22.25 more minutes
