Answer:

dryer cost = $450

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

washer + dryer = $841 ---- eq1

As washer costs $59 less than dryer So,

Dryer - $59 = washer

putting in eq1

Dryer + dryer - $59 = $841

2 dryers = $841 +$59

Dryer = $900/2

Dryer = $450

So the cost of washer will be:

washer = dryer - $59

Washer = $450 - $59

washer = $391

i hope it will help you!

A line with slope of -3 passes through the points ( x , -6 ) and ( -2 , 6 ). What is the missing x-coordinate?

valentina_108 [34]

We can use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 to find the answer. Therefore, we would have: 6-(-6)/-2-x equalling -3. So, 12/-2-x = -3. We multiply both sides by -2-x and get 12 = -3(-2 - x), then 12 = 6+ 3x. We then get 6 = 3x, and by dividing both sides by 2 we get x = 2.

A positive real number is 5 more than another. When - 10 times the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the result is 5

salantis [7]

Answer:

4√2 and 5+4√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x ad y

Smaller = y

Bigger = x

If a positive real number is 5 more than another, then;

x = 5 + y ... 1

When - 10 times the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the result is 57, then;

-10y + x² = 57 ...2

Substitute 1 into 2;

-10y + (5+y)² = 57

-10y + 25+10y+y² = 57

y²+25 = 57

y² = 57 - 25

y² = 32

y = √32

y = 4√2

Since x = 5 + y

x = 5 + 4√2

Hence rhe numbers are 4√2 and 5+4√2

You wish to take a flight from Nevada to New York. Use the point (-4, 0) to represent Nevada, and the (5, 2) to represent New Yo

Flauer [41]

Using proportions, it is found that the ordered pair that represents the location of the layover is given by: (2.75, 1.5).

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the flight distance is partitioned in a ratio of 3:1, hence:

L - Nv = 3/4(Ny - Nv).

This ratio is applied for both coordinates, hence, for the x-coordinate:

$x + 4 = \frac{3}/{4}(5 + 4)$

$x = \frac{27}{4} - \frac{16}{4}$

$x = \frac{11}{4}$

x = 2.75.

For the y-coordinate:

$y = \frac{3}/{4}(2 - 0)$

$y = \frac{6}{4}$

x = 1.5.

The probability that a region prone to hurricanes will be hit by a hurricane in any single year is 0.1 and independent of other

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

0.40951

Step-by-step explanation:

P(none in five years) = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

P(at least one) = 1 - P(none in five years)

= 1 - $0.9^{5}$

= 1 - 0.59049

= 0.40951

So the probability of a hurricane hit at least once in the next 5 years is 0.40951
