A) x / y = 3 / 5
A) 5x = 3y
A) 5x - 3y = 0
B) y - x = 6
B) 3y -3x = 18
Adding A) and B)
2x = 18

A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is
Maksim231197 [3]
X + y = 24....multiply by -3
3x + 5y = 100
---------------
-3x - 3y = - 72 (result of multiplying by -3)
3x + 5y = 100
--------------add
2y = 28
y = 28/2
y = 14

x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 24 - 14
x = 10

solution is (10,14)...and x represents 3 point q's and y represents 5 point q's......so this tells me there are 10 three point q's and 14 five point q's.

Carissa earns $450 per week for a 40 hour work week plus $16.83 per hour for each hour of overtime after 40 hours. Write an equa
gavmur [86]

Answer:

W = 450 + 16.83V

Step-by-step explanation:

For 40 hours Carissa

earning = $450

earning for 1 hour of over time = $16.83

multiplying both side by V

earning for v hour of over time = $16.83*V = $16.83V

weekly wage(W) = earning for 40 hours + earning for V hour of over time

W = 450 + 16.83V

Thus equation will be as given below for weekly earning

Find the measure of the indicated angle. Round to the nearest degree.
slava [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH CAH TOA to recall how the trig functions fit on a triangle

SOH: Sin(Ф)= Opp / Hyp

CAH: Cos(Ф)= Adj / Hyp

TOA: Tan(Ф) = Opp / Adj

5)

Adj = 14

Hyp = 26

∠X

so use

CAH

Cos(X) = 14/26

X = arcCos(14/26)

X = 57.421°

X = 57.4 ° ( rounded to nearest 10th )

6)

∠X

Hyp = 46

Opp = 12

use SOH

Sin(x) = 12/46

X = arcSin(12/46)

X = 15.121°

X = 15.1 ° ( rounded to nearest 10th )

7)

∠X

Adj = 29

Opp = 24

use TOA

Tan(x) = 29 / 24

X = arcTan( 29 /24)

X = 50.389

X = 50.4 °  ( rounded to nearest 10th )

8)

∠X

Adj = 22

Opp = 6

use TOA agian

Tan(x) = 6 / 22

X = arcTan(6/22)

X = 5.194

X = 5.2 °  ( rounded to the nearest 10th )
