Answer:

The cost of 1 Douglas Fir Tree = $30

The cost of 1 Noble Fir Tree = $ 79

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of 1 Douglas Fir tree =  $ x

Let the cost of 1 Noble Fir tree = $ y

Total Amount Earned in morning = $2,417

Total Amount Earned in evening = $2,022

Now, according to the question:

20 x + 23 y = 2417

and 20 x + 18 y = 2022

Subtraction both equation , we get

20 x + 23 y  - (20 x + 23 y)  = 2417 - 2022

or,  20x - 20x + 23 y - 18 y  = 395

or, 5 y = 395

⇒ y = 395 / 5 =  79

Hence, the cost of 1 Noble Fir Tree = $ 79

Now, put the value of y in 20 x + 23 y = 2417 , we get

20x + 23(79) = 2417

or, 20x = 2417 - 1817 = 600

or, x  = 600/20  = 30

Hence, the cost of 1 Douglas Fir Tree = $30

Aleks [24]

Answer:

38.7

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{sinA}{A}=\frac{sinB}{B}=\frac{sinC}{C}

A, B and C are the sides of the triangle and sinA, sinB and sinC are the opposing angles

\frac{sin95}{43}=\frac{A}{27}

A = sin^{-1} (\frac{27*sin95}{43} )=38.72018809

Jon, Leroy, and Simon are having a free-throw shooting contest. Each boy
Zolol [24]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If you arrange a statistics in order from least to greatest, the middle number is the median.

If there is even number of numbers in a list, let it be n numbers, then we take the average of n/2th and n/2 + 1 th terms.

Here, all of them have 6 numbers, so 6/2 = 3  and 4th, we take average of 3rd and 4th number to find the median.

Since they are arrange in order we check each:

Jon = average of 6 and 7, (6+7)/2 = 6.5

Leroy = average of 6 and 8,  (6+8)/2 = 7

Simon = average of 5 and 6, (5+6)/2 = 5.5

Leroy's median is the greatest (7).
