Five cupcakes and two cookies cost $19.75. Two cupcakes and four cookies cost $ 17.50.

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the cost of a cupcake and cookie respectively.

Given that;

Five cupcakes and two cookies cost $19.75.

$5x+2y=19.75 ---------- 1$

Two cupcakes and four cookies cost $17.50.

$2x+4y=17.50 --------------2$

Let's solve the simultaneous equation by elimination;

Multiply equation 1 by 2;

$10x+4y=39.50-------3\\$

Subtract equation 2 from equation 3;

$10x-2x+4y-4y=39.50-8x=22$

$8x=22$

divide both sides by 8

$\frac{8x}{8} =\frac{22}{8} \\x=2.75$

Since we have the value of x, let substitute into equation 1 to get y;

$5x+2y=19.75\\5(2.75)+2y=19.75\\13.75+2y=19.75\\2y=19.75-13.75\\2y=6\\y=\frac{6}{2} \\y=3.00$

therefore , the cost of cupcakes and cookies are;

$cupcakes= 2.75\\cookies= 3.00$

suppose a triangle has two sides of length 2 and 3 and that the angle between these two sides is 60. what is the length of the t

arlik [135]

Answer:

√7 ≈ 2.646

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is applicable. It tells you ...

c² = a² + b² - 2ab·cos(C) . . . . . where a, b, c are triangle side lengths, and angle C is opposite side c.

Filling in the given information, you have ...

c² = 2² + 3² - 2·2·3·cos(60°) = 4 + 9 - 12·(1/2) = 7

c = √7 ≈ 2.646

The length of the third side is √7, about 2.646 units.
