In this question, we're trying to find cost of one sandwich.

To find this, we must make a systems of equation from the given information:

We would represent sandwiches as "s" and drinks as "d".

Systems of equations:

6s + 4d = 53

4s + 6d = 47

Solve for s:

6(6s + 4d = 53)

-4(4s + 6d = 47)

36s + 24d = 318

-16s - 24d = -188

--------------------------

20s = 130

Divide both sides by s

s = 6.50

This means that one sandwich costs $6.50

Answer:

$6.50

Which ordered pair in the form (a,b) is a solution of the equation?

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

A. (6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

4a- 5b = 24

Check each point to see if its is true

A. (6,0)

4(6) - 5(0) = 24

24 = 24

true

B. (-5, -2)

4(-5) -5(-2)= 24

-20 +10 = 24

-10 =24

False

C. (0,6)

4(0) -5(6) =24

-30 =24

False

D. (-2, -5)

4(-2) -5(-5)=24

-8+25=24

18=24

False

Carrie spent 1/4 of her allowance on a shirt, 1/3 of her allowance on a skirt, and $8 on a belt. If she spent $22 in all, how mu

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x + 1/3x + 8 = 22

1/4x + 1/3x = 7/12x

7/12x + 8 = 22

22 - 8 = 14

7/12x = 14

14/ 7/12

x = 24

If cosθ=2/3 find cscθ using identities. This is in quad. 1.

laiz [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

cos θ = 2/3

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf {cos \; \theta = \dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse} } \\$

Hence, base = 2 units and hypotenuse = 3 units.

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { H^2 = B^2 + P^2} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { P^2 = H^2 - B^2} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { P^2 = (3)^2 - (2)^2} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { P^2 = 9- 4} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\bf { P = \sqrt{5}} \\$

Now, we know that :

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf {cosec \; \theta = \dfrac{Hypotenuse}{Perpendicular} } \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\bf{cosec \; \theta = \dfrac{3}{\sqrt{5}} } \\$

Therefore, the required answer is 3/√5.

Answer. Triangle ABD

Explanation: There’s no thinking in this, because you can use your eyes to look for the answer. Not all questions will have this type of question. But they do seem pretty similar to me.
