Answer:

a) The equation (10s + 8w) represents the calories Bridget ate on Monday and the equation (20s + w) represents the calories she ate the next day.

b) The number of calories in each strawberry is 4 and the number of calories in each vanilla wafer cookie is 19. The solution is s= 4 and w = 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

For part A, Bridget ate 10 strawberries and 8 vanilla wafer cookies on Monday. Since the the number of calories in a strawberry is s and the number of calories in a vanilla wafer cookie is w , the number of calories Bridget ate on Monday is 10s + 8w. The next day, Bridget ate 20 strawberries and 1 vanilla wafer cookie. Hence, the number of calories Bridget ate on the next day is 20s + w.

For part B,

we will create two different simultaneous equations.

Equation 1: 10s + 8w = 192

Equation 2: 20s + w = 99

We need to find one of the terms first to solve the other term. For this case, I will solve for w first.

Multiply the first equation by 2.

Equation 3: 20s + 16w = 192*2 = 384.

Now, subtract equation 2 from this new equation.

Equation 4:

(20s + 16w) - (20s + w) = 384 - 99

20s + 16w - 20s - w = 285

15w = 285

This leaves only w left and we can solve w.

w = 285 / 15 = 19

Now, we can solve for s using equation 2.

20s + 19 = 99

20s = 99-19 = 80

Hence,

s = 80/20 = 4

An equilateral triangle has a side length of 6. What is the height of the triangle?

vlabodo [156]

Since the height of an equilateral triangle in terms of its side s is s√3/2, the height of the triangle is 6√3/2 = 3√3 and so the area is (1/2)(6)(3√3) = 9√3.

If we draw a horizontal line a height of h from the base of the triangle, the region is split into two regions: the lower region consisting of a trapezoid of height h and the upper region consisting of a triangle of height 3√3 - h. 

Since the upper triangle and the triangle itself are similar triangles, the base and height are proportional. If we let x denote the base of the length of the upper triangle, we have: 

(S. of small triangle)/(S. of big triangle) = (Ht. of small triangle)/(Ht. of big triangle) 
==> x/6 = (3√3 - h)/(3√3) 
==> x = (6√3 - 2h)/√3 

Thus, the area of the upper triangle is: 

A = (1/2)[(6√3 - 2h)/√3](3√3 - h) = [(6√3 - 2h)(3√3 - h)]/(2√3). 
(Made a dumb mistake about the height here for some reason) 

Since we require that the area of this triangle is to be half of the total area (9√3/2), we need to solve: 

[(6√3 - 2h)(3√3 - h)]/(2√3) = 9√3/2 
==> (6√3 - 2h)(3√3 - h) = 27 
==> 54 - 6h√3 - 6h√3 + 2h^2 = 27 
==> 2h^2 - 12h√3 + 27 = 0. 

Solving with the Quadratic Formula gives: 

h = (6√3 + 3√6)/2 ≈ 8.87 units and h = (6√3 - 3√6)/2 ≈ 1.52 units. 

Since h = (6√3 + 3√6)/2 would place the line outside of the triangle, we pick h = (6√3 - 3√6)/2. 

Therefore, the line should be ==> (6√3 - 3√6)/2 units from the base. 

I hope this helps! ^^ Brainliest Please?
