Answer:

  • y = 8
  • RS = 51
  • ST = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) You use the fact that the lengths RS and ST total the length RT.

  RS +ST = RT

  (6y+3) +(3y+5) = 80 . . . . . substitute the given values

  9y +8 = 80 . . . . . . . . . . . . .simplify

  9y = 72 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 8

  72/9 = y = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of y

___

(b) Now, the value of y can be substituted into the expressions for RS and ST to find their lengths.

  RS = 6y +3 = 6·8 +3

  RS = 51

  ST = 3y +5 = 3·8 +5

  ST = 29

___

<em>Check</em>

  RS +ST = 51 +29 = 80 = RT . . . . the numbers check OK

Need help with this question about amplitude
lesantik [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

the amplitude is the height of the wave.

like with sound - the further away you are, the lower the volume of the sound (as the sound volume is the indicator of the amplitude of a sound wave, or the brightness of a light is the indicator of the amplitude of a light wave).

the same for any other type of wave (like the seismic wave of an earthquake).

so, the larger the distance, normally the smaller the amplitude.

Before tax &amp; after a 50%
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer: The boots were marked $86.

Step-by-step explanation: We know Mica's total was $100 for the bill. He got the only hat left marked $12, and a pair of boots. Before tax and after a 50% sale, her total is $100. Since she spent $12 for the hat, we know the rest of the money is going towards the boots. The boots will cost $86.

Hat($12) + Boots($86) = 100
