Answer:
Sarah is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
By plugging 10 in as 'x' to the equation, we get y=21+(2*10). 2 x 10 is 20, and 20 + 21 is <em>not</em> 42 - it's 41. So, Sarah is incorrect.
Answer:
80km
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (1.2, 1.0, 96) as shown below:
Next we cross multiply. We multiply 1.2 and x, and we multiply 96 and 1.0.
1.2(x) = 1.2x
96 x 1.0 = 96
Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:
1.2x = 96
Lets solve this equation. First we divide 96 by 1.2.
1. 
2. 
This means that our answer is 80km.
Given:
Cost to build a bookshelf = $20
Cost to build a table = $45
Amount available to spend = $600
Let x = number of bookshelves built.
Let y = number of tables built.
The total number of bookshelves and tables = 18.
Therefore
x + y = 18.
That is,
y = 18 - x (1)
The total amount available to build x bookshelves and y tables = $600. Therefore
20x + 45y = 600
That is (dividing through by 5),
4x + 9y = 120 (2)
Substitute (1) into (2).
4x + 9(18 - x) = 120
4x + 162 - 9x = 120
-5x = -42
x = 8.4
From (1),obtain
y = 18 - 8.4 = 9.6
Because we cannot have fractional bookshelves and tables, we shall test values of x=8, 9 and y=9,10 for profit
Note: The profit is $60 per bookshelf and $100 per table.
If x = 8, then y = 18-8 = 10.
The profit = 8*60 + 10*100 = $1480
If x = 9, then y = 18-9 = 9.
The profit = 9*60 + 9*100 = $1440
The choice of 8 bookshelves and 10 tables is more profitable.
Answer: 8 bookshelves and 10 tables.
Answer:
<h3>11.8 feet</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Length of the ladder = 12foot
angle of elevation = 80 degrees
Required
Height of the wall (opposite side)
The set up will form a right angled triangle where
length of the ladder is the hypotenuse
height of the wall is opposite;
Using SOH, CAH, TOA trig identity
According to SOH
sin 80 = opp/hyp
sin80 = opp/12
opp = 12sin80
opp = 11.82 feet
Hence the height of the wall is 11.8feet (to the nearest tenth)
