The answer is going to be a fraction...which is 75/1000, otherwise known as 1/40
In this problem, an angle like angle BAC where the
vertices like on the circle itself is called the inscribed angle.
While angle BOC, where O is the center of the circle, is
called the central angle.
Using Proposition III.20 from Euclid's Elements, this is called
the Inscribed Angle Theorem wherein:
∠BOC = 2∠BAC
or ∠BOC / 2 = ∠<span>BAC</span>
Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y
This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643
The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y
Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44
Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72
Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243
Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400
Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243
Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 2y = 12
-2x + 3y = 5 to find the solution we will use elimination method and for that, multiply second equation with 3 and the first equation with 2
<em>2 * 3x + 2y = 12</em>
<em>6x + 4y = 24</em>
<u>3 * -2x + 3y = 5</u>
<u>-6x + 9y = 15</u> now find the sum of both equation:
<em>6x + 4y </em><u>-6x + 9y</u> = 24 + 15 add like terms
13y = 39 divide both sides by 13
y = 3 now that we found the value of y we can use this to calculate the value of x
3x + 2y = 12 replace y with 3
3x + 2*2 = 12
3x + 4 = 12 subtract 4 from both sides
3x = 9 divide both sides by 3
x = 3
