Answer:
Cost of five blouses = $145
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = cost of blouse
y = cost of skirt
15x + 2y = 505 (1)
5x + 2y = 215 (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate y
15x - 5x = 505 - 215
10x = 290
x = 290/10
x = 29
Substitute x = 29 into (2)
5x + 2y = 215 (2)
5(29) + 2y = 215
145 + 2y = 215
2y = 215 - 145
2y = 70
y = 70/2
y = 35
x = cost of blouse = $29
y = cost of skirt = $35
How much do 5 such blouses cost?
cost of a blouse = $29
Cost of five blouses = $29 × 5
= $145
Cost of five blouses = $145
Answer: Pythagorean Theorem in 3 D
sqrt ( 3^2 + 4^2 + 2^2) =
sqrt ( 9 + 16 + 4) =
sqrt( 29) = 5.3852 approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
The longest diagonal is about 8.9 inches. The longest length is going to be between the two longest lengths, the width and the height. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Plug the width and height into a and b of the Pythagorean equation. (4)^2 + (8)^2 = c^2. Now simplify the equation. 16 + 64 = c^2. 80 = c^2. Now find the square root of each side. (sqrt)80 = (sqrt)c^2. If you simplify this, you will find that c is equal to about 8.9 inches.
To find half of something, we can divide by 2. So 10338/2 = 5169
1 2/3 is the same as 5/3, so the reciprocal is 3/5
