Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total flowers sold = 200

Flowers are :

Carnations, Roses, and Gerber daisies

Carnations = c

Roses = r

Daisies = d

20 fewer roses than daisies ; r = d - 20

Total sales = $453

c = $1.50 each ; r = 3.75 each ; d = 2.25 each

c + d + d - 20 = 200

c + 2d = 220 - - (1)

1.50c + (d - 20)(3.75) + 2.25d = 453

1.50c + 3.75d - 75 + 2.25d = 453

1.50c + 6d = 528 - - - (2)

From (1)

c = 220 - 2d

1.5(220 - 2d) + 6d = 528

330 - 3d + 6d = 528

330 + 3d = 528

3d = 528 - 330

d = 198/3

d = 66

66 × 2.25 = $148.5

c = 220 - 2(66)

c = 88

88 * 1.50 = $132

r = d - 20

r = 66 - 20

r = 46

46 × $3.75 = $172.5

Please help! what is the polar equation r = -5 theta in parametric form? thank you!

Rudiy27

Use these equations when converting polar equations to parametric equations:

$x=r\cos\theta$

$y=r\sin\theta$

We know that $r=5\theta$ , so substitute that into both equations for x and y.

$x=5\theta\cos\theta$

$y=5\theta\sin\theta$

Now, replace $\theta$ with any variable that you want to represent the parametric equations in. I'll use the standard variable, $t$

$x=5t\cos t$

$y=5t\sin t$

Thus, $r=5\theta$ represented in parametric form is:

$(x,y)=(5t\cos t, 5t \sin t)$

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Find the missing side 13 ft 5 ft x

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Assuming you're referring to the sides of a right triangle, the missing side X would be 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the two legs of a right triangle squared and added together is equal to the hypotenuse squared. $13^{2}$ is 169, $5^{2}$ is 25, 169 - 25 = 144. Take the square root of 144 and you'll get 12, which is the missing side of the right triangle.
