Answer: 9.25 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The described situation can be modelled in the following equation:

Total=(5 lbs+8 oz)+(4 lbs+15 oz)

But firstly, we have to convert the amounts in ounces to pounds in order to work with the same units, taking into account 1 oz=0.0625 lbs:

8 oz \frac{0.0625 lbs}{1 oz}=0.3125 lbs

15 oz \frac{0.0625 lbs}{1 oz}=0.937 lbs

Then:

Total=(5 lbs+0.3125 lbs)+(4 lbs+15 oz+0.937 lbs)

Total=9.25 lbs This is the totall Amy bought

the line passing through the points A (-1,3k) and B (k , 3) is parallel to the line whose equation is 2y+3x=9. write down the co
vodomira [7]

Answer:

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line passing through the points A (-1,3k) and B (k , 3) is parallel to the line whose equation is 2y+3x=9, then their slopes are equal

For coordinate AB;

slope m1 = 3 - 3k/k-(-1)

m1 = 3-3k/k+1

For the line 2y+3x = 9

2y = -3x + 9

y = -3/2 x + 9/2

Slope m2 = -3/2

Since m1 = m2

3-3k/k+1 = -3/2

Cross multiply

2(3-3k) = -3(k+1)

Expand

6 - 6k = -3k - 3

-6k+3k = -3 - 6

-3k = -9

k = -9/-3

k = 3

Hence the value of k is 3

A person is standing 50 ft from a statue. The person looks up at an angle of elevation of 8 degrees when staring at the top of t
borishaifa [10]

The height of the statue is 19.5 feet.

Why?

We can solve the problem using trigonometric formulas. In this case, we are going to use the trigonometric formula of the tangent.

We know that the person is standing 50ft from the statue, so, it will be the base of the two triangles formed by both angles (elevation and depression)

Using the trignometric formula, we have:

First triangle:

tg(\alpha )=\frac{h_{1}}{base} \\\\tg(8\°)=\frac{h_{1}}{50ft}\\\\0.14*50ft=h_1\\\\h_1=7ft

Second triangle:

tg(\alpha )=\frac{h_{2}}{base} \\\\tg(14\°)=\frac{h_{1}}{50ft}\\\\0.25*50ft=h_1\\\\h_1=12.5ft

Now, the total height of the statue will be:

TotalHeight=h_1+h_2=7ft+12.5ft\\\\TotalHeight=19.5ft

Have a nice day!

Which planet is an inner planet, and which one is an outer planet? Explain your answer.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Planet A is an outer planet, and planet B is an inner planet. Inner planets rotate slowly, so they take more time to complete a rotation. Outer planets rotate faster, so they take less time to complete a rotation.

your welcome !!!

A cylinder with a radius of 1 cm and a height of 21 cm has the same volume as a cone with a height of 7 cm. What is the radius o
Maru [420]
Volume of the cylinder = πr²h = π(1)² (21) = 21π cm³

Volume of the cone = 1/3 π r² h

21π = 1/3 π (r)² (7)

r³ = 21π ÷ (7/3 π) 

r² = 9

r = 3

Answer : Radius = 3
