Answer:

500 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

By proportion :-

15% of the tigers weight   = 75 pounds

100% ..................................   = 75*100 / 15 pounds

= 7500 / 15

= 500 pounds

5x + 2y = 6 3x + y = 4 Which of the following is part of the solution to the system of equations?
BabaBlast [244]
5x + 2y = 6
3x + y = 4....multiply by -2
-------------
5x + 2y = 6
-6x - 2y = -8 (result of multiplying by -2)
-------------add
-x = -2
x = 2

5x + 2y = 6
5(2) + 2y = 6
10 + 2y = 6
2y = 6 - 10
2y = -4
y = -4/2
y = -2 <=== here it is

A circle centered at the origin has a radius of 10 units. The terminal side of an angle, Theta, intercepts the circle in Quadran
Tanzania [10]
Since the circle is centered at the origin, we can use the equations
x² + y² = r²
x = r cos θ
y = r sin θ

We know y = 8 and r = 10. Solving for x
x² + 8² = 10²
x = 6

From this equation:
x = r cos θ
6 = 10 cos θ
cos θ = 6/10 = 0.6
