A sandwich store charges a delivery fee to bring lunch to an office.
Delivery cost - D
Meatball sandwich cost - M
One office pays $40.50 for 5 meatball sandwiches.
40.50 = 5M + D
Another office pays $66.50 for 9 meat ball sandwiches
66.50 = 9M + D
A. How much does each meatball sandwich add to the cost of delivery?
D = 40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M
40.50 - 5M = 66.50 - 9M
9M - 5M = 66.50 - 40.50
4M = 26.00
M = 6.50
B. What is the delivery fee
D = 40.50 - 5M = 40.50 - 5(6.50) = 40.50 - 32.50 = 8.00
Check
66.50 = 9M + D = 9(6.50) + 8 = 58.50 + 8.00 = 66.50
It went up 24c because 25% of 96c is 24c
First of all, just to avoid being snookered by a trick question, we should verify that these are really right triangles:
7² + 24² really is 25² , and 8² + 15² really is 17² , so we're OK there.
In the first one:
sin(one acute angle) = 7/25 = 0.28
the angle = sin⁻¹ (0.28) = 16.26°
the other acute angle = (90° - 16.26°) = 73.74°
In the second one:
sin(one acute angle) = 8/17 = 0.4706...
the angle = sin⁻¹ (0.4706...) = 28.07°
the other acute angle = (90° - 28.07°) = 61.93°
I'm sorry, but just now, I don't know how to do the
third triangle in the question.
Answer:
1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve. Change the division sign into a multiplication, and flip the second fraction:
(8/15)/(2/5) = (8/15) x (5/2)
Multiply across:
(8 x 5)/(15 x 2) = (40)/(30)
Simplify. Divide common factors:
(40/30)/(10/10) = 4/3
4/3 or 1 1/3 is your answer.

The difference between each number in the dollars fund is 25
209 - 184 = 25
184 - 159 = 25
so....in the ? space......134 - 25 = 109 <==
