$\begin{array}{ccc}200\ buttons&-&50\ shirts\\\\x\ buttons&-&350\ shirts\end{array}\ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\\\50x=200\times350\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 50\\\\x=\frac{200\times350}{50}\\\\x=4\times350\\\\\boxed{x=1400}\\\\\boxed{\boxed{Answer:1400\ buttons/350\ shirts}}$

Which ordered pair in the form (x, y) is a solution of this equation? (x 3)y = 14 (11, 1) (7, 2) (5, 2) (3, 2)

kicyunya [14]

You have to replace x and y by each pair in the equation and find the answer 14.
IF you replace the pair (11,1) you will get (11+3)*1=14
solve this and you get 14=14 so ordered pair is (11,1)

The function A(b) relates the area of a trapezoid with a given height of 12 and

Flura [38]

Answer:

$B(a)=\frac{a}{6}-9$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure , to better understand the problem

we have

$A(b)=12(\frac{b+9}{2})$

where

A(b) ---> is the trapezoid's area

b ---> is the other base value

Solve the equation for b

That means ----> isolate the variable b

Divide 12 by 2 right side

$A=6(b+9)$

Divide by 6 both sides

$\frac{A}{6}=b+9$

subtract 9 both sides

$\frac{A}{6}-9=b$

Rewrite

$b=\frac{A}{6}-9$

Convert to function notation

$B(a)=\frac{a}{6}-9$

HELP AND PLEASE PROVIDE A FULL EXPLANATION THANK YOU

Marrrta [24]

Let us consider the distance between kensington and greenwich be x
since the given figure is a right angled triangle,we use pythagoras theorem to find the answer

so by pythagoras theorem
x^2= 20^2+40^2
x^2=400+1600
x^2=2000

x=root of 2000=20root 5mi
answer is option (b)
