Answer:
72.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The arc length formula is s = rФ, where Ф is the central angle and is in radians (not degrees).
Here we convert 140° to radians: 140°(π/180°) = 2.44 radians.
Then the desired arc length is s = rФ = (29.5 cm)(2.44 radians) = 72.1 cm
It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..
a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2
2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together
a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13
Which gives;
2a = 90
Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45
3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.
a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32
4.Solution
a=45
b=32
Answer:
the total cost would be $45.2
