x- \ angelfish\\
y-\ goldfish\\
z-\ guppies\\\\
\left\{\begin{array}{l} x+y=149\\2x=z\\2(y-35)=x \end{array} \\\\

2y-70+y=149\\
3y-70=149\ \ |Add\ 70\\
3y=219\ \ |:3\\y=73\\\\
x=149-73\\
x=76\\
z=2x\\
z=2*76=152\\\\
All\ fishes:\\
x+y+z=76+152+73=301\\
After\ selling\ 35\ goldfishes\ there\ are\ 266\ fishes\ in\ aquarium.

The height of a triangle is 4 inches greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 70 square inches.
Alexxandr [17]

Answer: 10 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve a system of equations.

The formula to calculate a triangle area is A = (b.h)/2

where b is the base and h is the height. This will be our first equation.

Since the height is 4 inches greater than the base, the second equation will be: h = b+4

We replace h and the value of the area (70 square inches) in the first equation, and we solve it by using the cuadratic equation formula:

70 = (b . (b+4)) / 2

70 . 2 = b² + 4b

140 = b² +4b

0 = b² + 4b - 140

The roots of this polynomial are -14 and 10. Since a distance can't be negative, the length of the base is 10 inches.

"I have $225.00 in my account. I can spend all but 20% of that on some new equipment. What is the most that I can afford to spen
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Since you can spend all but 20%, then you can spend the rest, namely the 80%.

whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

therefore, 80% of 225 is then (80/100) * 225, that much.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq. of line through (-4,0) and (3,2) is

y-0=(2-0)/(3+4) (x+4)

y=2/7 (x+4)

or y=2/7 x+8/7

m1=2/7

b1=8/7

eq. of line through (-3,2) and (4,0) is

y-2=(0-2)/(4+3) (x+3)

y-2=-2/7(x+3)

y=-2/7 x-6/7 +2

or y=-2/7 x+8/7

m2=-2/7

b2=8/7

m1b2+m2b1

=\frac{2}{7} \times \frac{8}{7} +(-\frac{2}{7} ) \times \frac{8}{7} \\=\frac{16}{49} -\frac{16}{49} \\=0
