Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH-CAH-TOA.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

Side a is adjacent to the 29° angle, and 14 is opposite of the 29° angle.  So use tangent:

tan 29° = 14 / a

a = 14 / tan 29°

a ≈ 25.3

Side c is the hypotenuse, and 14 is opposite of the 29° angle.  So use sine:

sin 29° = 14 / c

c = 14 / sin 29°

c ≈ 28.9

Sue has 100 dimes and quarters. If the total value of the coins is $21.40, how many of each kind of coins does she have?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

There would be 24 dimes and 76 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, start by defining the number of dimes by x and the number of quarters as y. Now we can create a system of equations. Make the first about the total number of coins.

x + y = 100

Make the second about the amount of money.

.10x + .25y = 21.40

Now we can solve using elimination by multiplying the second equation by -4 and adding through.

x + y = 100

-.40x - y = -85.60

-----------------------

.60x = 14.4

x = 24

Now we can use the amount of dimes we have to find the number of quarters.

x + y = 100

24 + y = 100

y = 76

The following graph shows the cost c, in dollars, of p pounds of strawberries at a local grocery store.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

A. The ordered pair (5, 3.5) represents 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50.

B. The cost per pound of strawberries is shown at (1, 0.7).

C. The relationship shown in the graph is a direct variation because as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost also increases.

Explanation:

A. The coordinate is in (x,y). The x-axis represents the pound of strawberries and the y-axis represents the cost of the strawberries.

B. The cost for one pound of strawberries can be calculated to find the exact value of y (cost) when x is 1. The graph shows 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50 so divide $3.50 by 5 lbs. to find the cost per pound of strawberries. 3.5 ÷ 5 = 0.7. On the graph, the cost for one pound of strawberries is at (1, 0.7)

C. A direct variation in a graph is shown when both x and y increase or decrease together. In this case, as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost of the strawberries also increases.

How do I solve 2m + n = 2 and 3m - 2n = 3 using substitution?
Leona [35]

\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

  • Solve 2m + n = 2 and 3m - 2n = 3 using substitution.

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

We can use the substitution method to solve linear equations of this form. Let's solve for m & n.

\left. \begin{array}  { l  }  { 2 m + n = 2 } \\ { 3 m - 2 n = 3 } \end{array} \right.

To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.

2m+n=2, \: 3m-2n=3

Choose one of the equations and solve it for m by isolating m on the left-hand side of the equal sign.

2m+n=2

Subtract n from both sides of the equation.

2m=-n+2

Divide both sides by 2.

m=\frac{1}{2}\left(-n+2\right)  \\

Multiply 1/2 times -n+2.

m=-\frac{1}{2}n+1  \\

Substitute -\frac{n}{2}+1\\ for m in the other equation, 3m-2n=3.

3\left(-\frac{1}{2}n+1\right)-2n=3  \\

Multiply 3 times -\frac{n}{2}+1\\.

-\frac{3}{2}n+3-2n=3  \\

Add -\frac{3n}{2}\\ to -2n.

-\frac{7}{2}n+3=3  \\

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

-\frac{7}{2}n=0  \\

Divide both sides of the equation by -\frac{7}{2}\\, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

\large \underline{\underline{ \bf \: n=0 }}

Substitute 0 for n in m=-\frac{1}{2}n+1\\. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for m directly.

\large \underline{ \underline{\bf \: m=1 }}

The system is now solved.

\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: m=1, \: n=0 }}

Let f(x) = 3x2 + x − 3 and g(x) = x2 − 5x + 1. Find f(x) − g(x).
scZoUnD [109]
<h3>Answer:   2x^2 + 6x - 4</h3>

=================================

Work Shown:

f(x) - g(x) = [ f(x) ] - [ g(x) ]

f(x) - g(x) = ( 3x^2+x-3) - ( x^2-5x+1 )

f(x) - g(x) = 3x^2+x-3 - x^2+5x-1

f(x) - g(x) = (3x^2-x^2) + (x+5x) + (-3-1)

f(x) - g(x) = 2x^2 + 6x - 4
