Answer:

Microscopes cost $44 and Dissection Kits cost $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given, we can make the system of equations:

30x+48y=1848

x represents the price of microscopes and y represents the price of dissection kits.

We also know that microscopes will be 4x the price of dissection kits. Therefor:

x=4y

We can plug these two equations together to find the answer.

30(4y)+48y=1848

120y+48y=1848

168y=1848

y=11

Using the y-value, can find the x-value.

x=4(11)

x=44

Solve x2 - 8x = 20 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

{-2,10}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8x = 20

Take the coefficient of x

-8

Divide by 2

-8/2 =-4

Square it

(-4)^2 =16

Add this to each side

x^2 - 8x+16 = 20+16

x^2 - 8x+16 = 36

The left hand side becomes( x + (-8/2) )^2

(x - 4)^2 = 36

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x - 4)^2) =±sqrt( 36)

x-4 = ±6

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4 = 4±6

x = 4±6

x = 4+6       x = 4-6

x = 10        x = -2

SVEN [57.7K]

The formula of an area of a circle:

A_O=\pi r^2

We have

r = 1.8 m

π ≈ 3.14

Substitute:

A_O=\pi\cdot1.8^2=3.24\pi\ m^2\approx3.24\cdot3.14=10.1736\ m^2\approx10.17\ m^2
