PLEASE HELP ASAP!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Debora [2.8K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = c = 17 feet

Height = a = 9 feet + 6 feet = 15 feet

Children's space = b

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

15^2 + b^2 = 17^2

225 + b^2 = 289                   Subtract 225 from both sides

225-225+b^2=289-225

b^2 = 64                                 Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(64)

b = 8

Since each child takes up 1 foot, 8 children can sit on side b.

Solve the system y=x-3 y=-2x+3
vivado [14]

Answer:

x = 2, y= -1 Or (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s solve the system using substitution. First we can set the equations equal to each other:

x-3= -2x +3

Now solve for x

3x-3= 3

3x = 6

x=2

Now that we have x, we can plug it back into one of the original equations to get y

y= x-3

y= 2-3

y = -1

Finally, the solution to the system of equations is (2, -1).

Isaac downloaded 7 ringtones. Each polyphonic ringtone costs $3.25, and each standard ringtone costs $1.50. If he spends a total
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

6\ polyphonic\ ringtones  and 1\ standard\ ringtone

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of polyphonic ringtones

y ----> the number of standard ringtones

we know that

x+y=7

x=7-y -----> equation A

3.25x+1.50y=21 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

3.25(7-y)+1.50y=21

22.75-3.25y+1.50y=21

3.25y-1.50y=22.75-21

1.75y=1.75

y=1\ standard\ ringtones

Find the value of x

x=7-1=6\ polyphonic\ ringtones

aalyn [17]

Answer:

Option a.  $2,040

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

To find out the amount of the additional passive income last year, subtract the amount earned at her salaried job from Loretta’s income last year

so

\$81,300-\$56,800=\$24,500

step 2

Divide the additional passive income last year by 12 (number of months in a year)

\$24,500/12=\$2,041.67

therefore

approximately $2,400 per month

How do you do this? Someone give me the answer
Gemiola [76]
It would last 13.5 weeks because you would make a proportion:
12/16 = x/18 and then cross multiply. You would get 216=16x, then you have to divide both sides by 16 to get x = 13.5
