Answer:

The price of the cake is $24 and the price of the Pie is $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

<em>Represent price of Cake with C and Price of Pie with P</em>

C = 9 + P

Cakes sold = 8

Pies sold = 14

Total = \$402

Required

Determine C and P

To represent the cakes and pies sold, we have the following expression

8C + 14P = 402

Substitute 9 + P for C

8(9+P) + 14P = 402

Open the bracket

72 + 8P + 14P = 402

Collect Like Terms

8P + 14P = 402 - 72

22P= 330

Divide both sides by 22

P = \frac{330}{22}

P = 15

Recall that

C = 9 + P

C = 9 + 15

C = 24

<em>Hence, the price of the cake is $24 and the price of the Pie is $15</em>

Two functions are shown below.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x)=\dfrac{1}{3}3^x

g(x)=2x+4

For f(x) to be true, the domain is given by observing the graph of two i.e. x\in (-1.981,3.117). In this range g(x) is greater than f(x).

From the above domain largest integer that can satisfy the condition is 3.

If an interior angle of a regular polygon measures 140*, how many sides does it have?
Katen [24]

Answer:

9 sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

N is the # of sides.

140 = ((n-2) x 180) / n

Multiply both sides by n

140 n = (n-2) x 180

Distribute the right side

140 n = 180 n - 360

Subtract 140 n and add 360 to both sides.

40 n = 360

n = 9

What is the exact value of cos 45° ?
Georgia [21]
Let the two sides of a right triangle be equal to one, which means that the hypotenuse is √2

Since cosa=adjacent side / hypotenuse

cos45=1/√2

We can rationalize the denominator by multiplying numerator and denominator by √2

√(2)/2

or if you prefer:  √(1/2)
