Answer:

That's called system of equations. it is like adding and subtracting.

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to find x or y. i will choose x. in order to do that you need to put one, ill do the first one but you can do first or second, and change it to negative (-6x+6y=6) or -(-6x+6y=6), changing it to 6x - 6y = -6. then the two x's will be cancled since 6-6 is 0. now you add 6y and 3y, and 6 with -12. get your answer, and do the same thing to y, too. sorry if its a bit confusing, took me a while to learn it too. this is highschool stuff so thats why you will although im im middle too!

Mr. Walker is looking at the fundraiser totals for the last five years.

MrRissso [65]

1. If you want to find the mean you should add all fundraiser totals and divide it by number of years:

$\text{ the mean }=\dfrac{896+925+880+963+914}{5} =915.6.$

2. In order to find the median, firstly you have to order the fundraiser totals from the smallest number to the greatest number:

880, 896, 914, 925, 963.

The median is the middle number, then

$\text{ the median }=914.$

3. 915.6-914=1.6 - the mean is $1.60 greater than the median.

Answer: correct choice is B.

The line with equation −a+3b=0 coincides with the terminal side of an angle θ in standard position and sinθ<0 .

Anna11 [10]

If $a$ is the variable of the horizontal axis, then you can solve for $b$ to get the equation of the line in slope-intercept form in the $a,b$ plane:

$-a+3b=0\implies b=\dfrac a3$

i.e. a line with slope $\dfrac13$ through the origin, which means it is contained in the first and third quadrants. Since the terminal side of $\theta$ has a negative sine, the angle must lie in the third quadrant.

Because the slope of the line is $\dfrac13$ , you can choose any length along the line to make up the hypotenuse of a right triangle with reference angle $\theta$ . Any such right triangle will have $\tan\theta=\dfrac13$ , regardless of whether the angle is the first or third quadrant. But since $\theta$ is known to lie in the third quadrant, and so $\sin\theta$ and $\cos\theta$ are both negative, you have

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\dfrac13\implies \dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\dfrac{-1}{-3}\implies \cos\theta=-3$
