Answer: Ashley has $20

Chau has $15

Rueben has $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount that Ashley has.

Let y represent the amount that Chau has.

Let z represent the amount that Rueben has.

Ashley,chau, and reuben have a total of $ 75 in their wallets. This means that

x + y + z = 75- - - - - - - - -- - -1

Chau has $5 less than ashley. This means that

y = x - 5

Reuben has  2 times what ashley has. This means that

z = 2x

Substituting y = x - 5 and z = 2x into equation 1, it becomes

x + x - 5 + 2x = 75

4x = 75 + 5 = 80

x = 80/4 = 20

y = x - 5 = 20 - 5

y = 15

z = 2x = 2 × 20

z = 40

HELP URGENT STEP FUNCTIONS!!!!!!! Used books cost $2.25 each. Which expression represents the total number of books that can be
irinina [24]

Answer:

A. \left \lfloor \frac{10}{2.25} \right \rfloor

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

The cost of one book = $2.25

Since, it takes $2.25 to buy 1 book.

The, for $10, we can get \frac{1}{2.25}\times 10 i.e. \frac{10}{2.25} = 4.44

Since, number of books cannot be in decimals.

So, the closest integer to 4.44 is 4.

Hence, we can buy 4 books from $10.

Now, according to the options:

A. \left \lfloor \frac{10}{2.25} \right \rfloor = \left \lfloor 4.44\right \rfloor = 4

B. \left \lceil \frac{10}{2.25} \right \rceil = \left \lceil 4.44 \right \rceil=5

C. \frac{10}{\left \lceil 2.25\right \rceil} =\frac{10}{3} =0.33

D. \frac{10}{\left \lfloor 2.25\right \rfloor} = \frac{10}{2} = 5

Hence, we see that from the options, A is correct.

find the angle between the vectors. (first find the exact expression and then approximate to the nearest degree. ) a=[1,2,-2]. B
SashulF [63]

Answer:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{10}{\sqrt{9} \sqrt{25}})=cos^{-1} (\frac{10}{15}) = cos^{-1} (\frac{2}{3}) = 48.190

Since the angle between the two vectors is not 180 or 0 degrees we can conclude that are not parallel

And the anfle is approximately \theta \approx 48

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case first we need to calculate the dot product of the vectors, and after this if the dot product is not equal to 0 we can calculate the angle between the two vectors in order to see if there are parallel or not.

a=[1,2,-2], b=[4,0,-3,]

The dot product on this case is:

a b= (1)*(4) + (2)*(0)+ (-2)*(-3)=10

Since the dot product is not equal to zero then the two vectors are not orthogonal.

Now we can calculate the magnitude of each vector like this:

|a|= \sqrt{(1)^2 +(2)^2 +(-2)^2}=\sqrt{9} =3

|b| =\sqrt{(4)^2 +(0)^2 +(-3)^2}=\sqrt{25}= 5

And finally we can calculate the angle between the vectors like this:

cos \theta = \frac{ab}{|a| |b|}

And the angle is given by:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{ab}{|a| |b|})

If we replace we got:

\theta = cos^{-1} (\frac{10}{\sqrt{9} \sqrt{25}})=cos^{-1} (\frac{10}{15}) = cos^{-1} (\frac{2}{3}) = 48.190

Since the angle between the two vectors is not 180 or 0 degrees we can conclude that are not parallel

And the anfle is approximately \theta \approx 48
