The volleyball team and the wrestling team at Weston High School are having a joint car wash today, and they are splitting the r

evenues. The volleyball team gets $4 per car. In addition, they have already brought in $9 from past fundraisers. The wrestling team has raised $101 in the past, and they are making $3 per car today. After washing a certain number of cars together, each team will have raised the same amount in total. How many cars will that take? What will that total be?

After washing 92 cars, both teams will have same amount.

The total will be $377.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount raised in past by Volleyball team = $9

Revenue generated per car = $4

Let,

c be the number of cars.

T be be funds raised

T = 4c + 9      Eqn 1

Amount raised by Wrestling team = $101

Revenue generated per car = $3

T = 3c+101      Eqn 2

For same amount;

Eqn 1 = Eqn 2

4c+9=3c+101\\4c-3c=101-9\\c=92

After washing 92 cars, both teams will have same amount.

Putting c=92 in Eqn 1 and 2

T=4(92)+9\\T=368+9\\T=377

T=3(92)+101\\T=276+101\\T=377

The total will be $377.

Point b has coordinates (-8,15) and lies on the circle whose equation is x^2+y^2=289. If an angles is drawn in standard position
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

\cos \theta=-\dfrac{8}{17}

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of Point b=(-8,15)

b lies on the circle whose equation is x^2+y^2=289

x^2+y^2=17^2

Comparing with the general form a circle with center at the origin: x^2+y^2=r^2

The radius of the circle =17 which is the length of the hypotenuse of the terminal ray through point b.

For an angle drawn in standard position through point b,

x=-8 which is negative

y=15 which is positive

Therefore, the angle is in Quadrant II.

\cos \theta=\dfrac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse} \\$Adjacent=-8\\Hypotenuse=17\\\cos \theta=\dfrac{-8}{17} \\\cos \theta=-\dfrac{8}{17}

Show that x+y:x-y=3:2
ycow [4]

We have,

x+y:x-y=3:2

To prove that, x+ y : x - y = 3:2.

x+y=3  

And,

x+y = 2      

Adding (1) and (2), we get

x+y+x-y=3+2

⇒2x=5

⇒ x =

Put x =  in (1), we get

+y=3

⇒ y=3-=

x+y:x-y=

=3:2

So, x+y:x-y=3:2.

You rent an apartment that costs $1100 per month during the first year, but the rent is set to go up 9.5% per year. What would b
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

  $2076.30

Step-by-step explanation:

In the n-th year, the rent will be ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1) . . . . . . . . . r is the year on year ratio: 1+rate of increase

  an = 1100·(1.095^(n-1))

Then the rent in the 8th year is ...

  a8 = 1100·(1.095^(8-1)) ≈ 2076.30

The rent in the 8th year would be $2076.30.
