The object of the 24 game, created by Robert Sun, is to combine four numbers, using addition, subtraction, multiplication and or

division to get the number 24. For examples the numbers 2,5,5,4 can be combined as 2(5+5)+4= 24. For the algebra edition of the game and the game card shown to the right, the object is to find single digit positive integer value x and y so the four numbers x+y, 3x+2y, 8 and 9 can be combined to make 24. Using the game card, write a system of equations that, when solved, can be used to make 24 from the game card. what is the solution to this system, and how can it be used to make 24 on the game card?

Answer:

  4x +3y = 7; 1 ≤ x ≤ 9; 1 ≤ y ≤ 9

  (x, y) = (1, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simply add the numbers, you have ...

  (x+y) +(3x+2y) +8 +9 = 24

This simplifies to ...

  4x +3y = 7

Perhaps the other "equations" in the "system of equations" are the constraint inequalities ...

  • 1 ≤ x ≤ 9
  • 1 ≤ y ≤ 9

The smallest possible value of both x and y is 1, which would satisfy this equation:

  4·1 + 3·1 = 7

Using the expression (x+y) +(3x+2y) +8 +9 = 24, suitable values for x and y are 1 and 1.

_____

We have written one equation, which in this context only has one solution for the two variables. It seems likely that we need to know more about the game card in order to write a system of equations.

For which value of theta is cot (theta) undefined?
sattari [20]

The cotangent function is defined as the ratio between cosine and sine of a given angle, i.e.


\cot(x) = \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}


Since you can't have zero at the denominator, the cotangent function is not defined when the sine is zero.


Let's look at your option:


\sin(90^\circ) = 1, so the cotangent is defined here


\sin(180^\circ) = 0, so the cotangent is not defined here


\sin(270^\circ) = -1, so the cotangent is defined here


\sin(450^\circ) = \sin(360^\circ+90^\circ)=\sin(90^\circ) = 1, so the cotangent is defined here

Answer:

Therefore, HL theorem we will prove for Triangles Congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Label the Figure first, Such that

Angle ADB = 90 degrees,  

angle ADC = 90 degrees, and

AB ≅ AC

To Prove:

ΔABD ≅ ΔACD    by   Hypotenuse Leg theorem

Proof:

In  Δ ABD and Δ ACD

AB ≅ AC     ……….{Hypotenuse are equal Given}

∠ADB ≅ ∠ADC     ……….{Each angle measure is 90° given}

AD ≅ AD     ……….{Reflexive Property or Common side}

Δ ABD ≅ Δ ACD ….{By Hypotenuse Leg test} ......Proved

Therefore, HL theorem we will prove for Triangles Congruent.

Student Council sponsors weekly dances at their school on Friday nights. The admission price for each person is $4 for Student C
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

$110

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you have to do 15*4. We get the 4 from the admission fees and the 15 from the number of dances they attend. From this answer we can see the total of money they will be paying for admission for the 15 dances.

15*4=$60

However, our answer isn't just $50 as we are also told membership costs $50. So no we add $50 to $60, which gives us an answer of $110, which is the amount the member will pay if they attend 15 dances during the school year.

6.7 x 8 is 53.6 (80%)
1% of 67 is .67
53.6 - .67 is 52.93 (79%)
