The walls are vertical so the angle opposite X would be a right angle which is 90 degrees.
X would be 180 - 90 - 35 = 55 degrees
X and 2y - 5 are complementary angles which add together to equal 90:
2y - 5 + 55 = 90
Simplify:
2y +50 = 90
Subtract 50 from both sides:
2y = 40
Divide both sides by 2:
y = 20
Why did both of their names have to start with the same letter
x=jay hours
y=jamie huours
x=10+3y
x=43
so
43=10+3y
minus 10
33=3y
divide 3
11=y

(5x)^2 + x^2 = c^2
25x^2 + x^2 =c^2
sqrt 26 x ^ 2 = sqrt c^2
x sqrt 26= c
so answer is 6x + x sqrt 26
Answer: three pieces.
The piece of wood is 6/8 inches long - this fraction can be simplified to 3/4 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.
Thus, he cuts a piece of wood that is 3/4 inches long into 1/4 inch pieces.
1 goes into 3 three times, so the piece of wood can be cut into three 1/4-inch pieces.
First convert the rate into a decimal.
8/100=0.08
Next put all those numbers 15,000, 0.08, and 6 into the equation A=P(1+(rt)).
This is how you do it.
A=15,000(1+(0.08*6))
A=15,000(1+0.48)
A=15,000(1.48)
A=22,200
