Answer:
y= -10/89
Step-by-step explanation:
89y=-10
89y/89 = -10/89
y= - 10/89
Answer:
m∠QPR = 35° m∠QPM =40° m∠PRS = 30°
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔPRQ is a right triangle with right angle at R. So m∠QPR = 90 - 55 = 35
ΔQPM is a right triangle with right angle at M. So m∠QPM = 90 - 40 = 40
Arc RQ = 2(35) = 70 and arc SR = 2(25) = 50.
So arc PS = 180 - (arc RQ + arc SR) = 180 - (70 + 50) = 180 - 120 = 60
Now arc PS is the intercepted arc for ∠PRS.
Therefore, m∠PRS = 60/2 = 30
I used the fact that an inscribed angle has a measure 1/2 the measure of the intercepted arc several times. Also, I used the fact that the acute angles of a right triangle are complementary. And, finally I used the fact that an inscribed angle in a semicircle is a right angle.
I hope this helped.
Hotdogs = $1.00
hamburgers = $1.75
5 hotdogs + 4 hamburgers = $12.00
4 hotdogs + 5 hamburgers = $12.75
hotdogs = x
hamburgers = y
5x + 4y = 12
4x + 5y = 12.75
subtract the second equation from the first:
(5x + 4y = 12) - (4x + 5y = 12.75) =
1x - 1y = -0.75
x + 0.75 = y ( this means one hotdog plus $0.75 equals one hamburger)
now substitute "y" for "x + 0.75" in either equation to find x ( I used the first equation)
5x + 4y = 12
5x + 4( x + 0.75) = 12
5x + 4x + 3 = 12
9x + 3 = 12
9x = 9
x = 1 ( one hotdog costs $1.00)
now substitute 1 for "x" in either equation to find y ( I used the first equation again)
5x + 4y = 12
5(1) + 4y = 12
5 + 4y = 12
4y = 7
y = 1.75 ( one hamburger costs $1.75)
checking answers with either equation ( input $1.00 for hotdogs and $1.75 for hamburgers):
equation 1:
5 hotdogs + 4 hamburgers = $12.00
5($1.00) + 4($1.75) = $12.00
$5.00 + $7.00 = $12.00
$12.00 = $12.00 ✔
equation 2:
4 hotdogs + 5 hamburgers = $12.75
4($1.00) + 5($1.75) = $12.75
$4.00 + $8.75 = $12.75
$12.75 = $12.75 ✔
