Answer:

each book costs $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of each book be $x

cost of buying 8 books = $8x

It is given that with an original amount of $116, after buying 8 books, he had $12 left over. Hence,

$8x + $12 = $116   (dropping the $ signs)

8x + 12 = 116

8x = 116 - 12

8x = 104

x = 13  (each book costs $13)

Answer:

he possibly spent $13 on order to end up with $12 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) look. at the number 116 you can use a calculator.

2) if 14 only leaves you with nothing you take it away

3) add 13 + 8X that should give you 104

4). substract 116-104 your total should be $12

I hope I helped you.

Find the perimeter of each of the two non congruent triangles where a=15,b=20 and a=29
Alborosie

Answer:

b. about 63.9 units and 41.0 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In question ∠a= 29° and Side of a= 15 and b= 20

Using sine rule of congruence of triangle.

⇒ \frac{a}{sin A} = \frac{b}{sin B} = \frac{c}{sin C}

⇒ \frac{15}{Sin 29} = \frac{20}{sin B}

Using value of sin 29°

⇒ \frac{15}{0.49} = \frac{20}{sin B}

Cross multiplying both side.

⇒ Sin B= \frac{20\times 0.49}{15} = 0.65

∴ B= 41°

Now, we have the degree for ∠B= 41°.

Next, lets find the ∠C

∵ we know the sum total of angle of triangle is 180°

∴∠A+∠B+∠C= 180°

⇒ 29+41+B= 180

subtracting both side by 70°

∴∠C= 110°

Now, again using the sine rule to find the side of c.

\frac{b}{SinB} = \frac{c}{SinC}

⇒\frac{20}{sin41} = \frac{C}{sin110}

Using the value of sine and cross multiplying both side.

⇒ C= \frac{20\times 0.94}{0.65} = 28.92

∴ Side C= 28.92.

Now, finding perimeter of angle of triangle

Perimeter of triangle= a+b+c

Perimeter of triangle= (15+20+28.92)= 63.9

∴ Perimeter of triangle= 63.9 units

WILL MARK THE CORRECT ANSWER BRAINLIEST!<br><br> Select all the correct answers:
stepladder [879]

Answer:

B, D

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve all equations:

A.

x-3x=-2x+4\\ \\-2x=-2x+4\\ \\0=4

This is false equality, so this equation has no solutions.

B.

x-\dfrac{1}{3}(3x)=0\\ \\x-x=0\\ \\0=0

This equality is true for all values of x, so this equation has infinitely many solutions.

C.

\dfrac{1}{3}x-3=4+2x\\ \\x-9=12+6x\\ \\x-6x=12+9\\ \\-5x=21\\ \\x=-\dfrac{21}{5}

This equation has the unique solution.

D.

3x+2-\dfrac{1}{3}(3x)=2+2x\\ \\9x+6-3x=6+6x\\ \\6x+6=6+6x\\ \\0=0

This equality is true for all values of x, so this equation has infinitely many solutions.

E.

x-\dfrac{1}{3}x+2=0\\ \\3x-x+6=0\\ \\2x=-6\\ \\x=-3

This equation has the unique solution.

Which ratio is equal to 1 1/3 :2​
arsen [322]
You can solve this by convert mixed number(s) into improper fraction(s) 2. change both fractions to the equivalent fractions with the same denominator 3. omit denominators and write numerators as a ratio 4. simplify the ratio by dividing both numbers by the highest common factor.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

it will look like this 4(a+3)-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

look since the equation "a+3" replaced for the place of "x" in f(x), you replace it on the equation "4x- 2/3" and just solve
