Answer:

B = 12

A =  20

C =  29

Step-by-step explanation:

A = tickets on airline A

B = A-8

C = 2B +5

Total = 61

A + B+ C = 61

Taking B = A -8 and writing in terms of A  

A = B+8

Replacing A and C in the equation A + B+ C = 61

( B+8) + B + 2B +5  = 61

Combining like terms

4B +13 = 61

Subtract 13 from each side

4B =13-13 = 61-13

4B =48

Divide by 4

4B /4 = 48/4

B = 12

A = B +8 = 12+8 = 20

C = 2B +5 = 2*12+5 = 24+5 = 29

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

(-2,-12), (-1,-6), (0,-3) and (1,-3/2)

Step-by-step explanation:  

x     g(x)

-2    -3(1/2)^-2 = -12

-1     -3(1/2)^-1 = -6

0     -3(1/2)^0 = -3

1      -3(1/2)^1 = -3/2

Now, making the graph we will plot

(-2,-12), (-1,-6), (0,-3) and (1,-3/2)

Hope this helps!!

The altitude of an equilateral triangle is 5 cm. what is the length of a side of the triangle?
Grace [21]

Answer:

The length side of the triangle is \frac{10\sqrt{3}}{3}\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three equal internal angles of measure of 60 degrees each.

Let

b------> the length side of the equilateral triangle

Applying Pythagoras theorem

b^{2}=(b/2)^{2}+5^{2}\\\\ b^{2}-(b/2)^{2}=25\\\\ (3/4)b^{2}=25\\ \\b^{2} =25*4/3\\ \\b=\frac{10}{\sqrt{3}}\ cm\\ \\b=\frac{10\sqrt{3}}{3}\ cm
