Which has smallest value 0.79 or 0.425

aliina [53]

7: $200<3x-y(28) where x represents each kids money out of it and y represents the parents pay.
8: 7.00>(is greater then or equal to) 0.75X + 1.29Y where X is the amount of bagels and Y is the amount of cream cheese containers.
9: $25 + $75>4X where X is the shirts
10: 720-120>(greater then or equal to) 32X where X is the number of people in each row
11: 2400= 2100+ X(1/20) where X is the value of all things sold.
12: 2000<(X7)-668 where X is the amount of cans in one day.
13: 100> 7X - 10Y where X equals the amount of months and Y equals the amount of CD's
14: $80 - $22> (greater than or equal to) 17X where x equals the amount of shirts.

first off sorry it took so long to answer, these long word questions are time consuming and i havent done them in a while so i had to refresh my memory, secondly the equations all end where i say the word "where", thirdly i am absolutely sure of all these answers except for the first one, the first one i am pretty sure i still got it but not 100%.

hope this helps.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 24 ft wide and 33 ft long. She

<h3>Answer: 16 ft by 25 ft</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

The outer dimensions 24 ft and 33 ft shrink down to 24-2x ft and 33-2x ft respectively. This subtraction of 2x is due to subtracting two copies of x per side.

The carpet has area of (24-2x)(33-2x)

Cynthia can afford to buy 400 sq ft of carpet

So we set 400 equal to that previous expression and solve for x

(24-2x)(33-2x) = 400

24(33-2x) - 2x(33-2x) = 400

792-48x - 66x + 4x^2 = 400

4x^2 - 114x + 792 = 400

4x^2 - 114x + 792-400 = 0

4x^2 - 114x + 392 = 0

From here, use the quadratic formula to isolate x.

Plug in a = 4, b = -114, c = 392

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-114)\pm\sqrt{(-114)^2-4(4)(392)}}{2(4)}\\\\x = \frac{114\pm\sqrt{6724}}{8}\\\\x = \frac{114\pm82}{8}\\\\x = \frac{114+82}{8} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{114-82}{8}\\\\x = \frac{196}{8} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{32}{8}\\\\x = 24.5 \ \text{ or } \ x = 4\\\\$

The two possible solutions are x = 24.5 and x = 4

But if x = 24.5, then 24 - 2x = 24 - 2*24.5 = -25 which isn't possible. We cannot have a negative width or negative length for the carpet.

Luckily x = 4 does work since

24 - 2x = 24 - 2*4 = 16

33 - 2x = 33 - 2*4 = 25

Both results are positive.

Therefore, the carpet has dimensions of <u>16 ft by 25 ft</u>

Check: 16*25 = 400, so the answer is confirmed

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth BC=?

miskamm [114]

Answer:

BC = 1.71

Step-by-step explanation:

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse in a right triangle

α = 70°

a: adjacent = BC

h: hypotenuse = 5

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

we see that it has (angle, adjacent, hypotenuse)

we look at which meets those data between the sine, cosine and tangent

is the cosine

cos α = a/h

Now we replace the values and solve

cos 70 = a/5

0.34202 = a/5

0.34202 * 5 = a

1.7101 = a

round to the neares hundredth

a = 1.7101 = 1.71

BC = 1.71
