Answer:

A7.45x = y

Step-by-step explanation:


We can use a ratio to solve this problem.  Take the total cost of the lunches and divide by the number of lunches.

y = total cost of lunches and

x = number of lunches

74.50             y

-------------- = ------------

10                     x


Using cross products

74.5 x = 10 y

Divide each side by 10

74.5/10 x= 10y/10

7.45x = y

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

There is only one answer that works and that is A. The rest give you strange answers. Each box, no matter how many there are, costs 7.45

Since you don't know the number of boxes, call that x

The total cost is y

Therefore y = 7.45*x

The other choices

B: When you cross multiply the proportion of B, you get

7.45*y = 10x That means the total (y) is multiplied by 7.45 (making y not the total). When you divide by 10, the answer is now meaningless. B is incorrect.

C: C is saying that each box costs 74.50. That was supposed to be the total for 10 boxes. C is getting to be far too big. C is not the answer.

D: They total is y, not 74.5 * y. The answer is getting out of control (too big) if it is D. So D is incorrect.

Why is the value of q?
Rudiy27

Given:

QSR is a right triangle.

QT = 10

TR = 4

To find:

The value of q.

Solution:

Hypotenuse of QSR = QT + TR

                                 = 10 + 4

                                 = 14

Geometric mean of similar right triangle formula:

$\frac{\text { hypotenuse }}{\text { leg }}=\frac{\text { leg }}{\text { part }}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{14}{q} =\frac{q}{4}

Do cross multiplication.

$\Rightarrow14\times 4 =q\times q

$\Rightarrow 56 =q^2

Switch the sides.

$\Rightarrow q^2 =56

Taking square root on both sides.

\Rightarrow q =2 \sqrt{14}

The value of q is 2 \sqrt{14}.

Circle o is shown below the diagram is not drawn to scale if m
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

∠ O = 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

the inscribed angle R is half the measure of its intercepted arc NQ , then

arc NQ = 2 × 36° = 72°

the central angle O is equal to the measure of the arc that subtends it , so

∠ O = arc NQ = 72°
