Answer:

There area 14 one cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of 1 cent stamps

y -----> the number of 8 cent stamps

z -----> the number of 12 cent stamps

we know that

0.01x+0.08y+0.12z=1.78 -------> equation A

x=y+4 ------> y=x-4 -----> equation B

x=2z -----> z=0.5x ------> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for x

0.01x+0.08(x-4)+0.12(0.5x)=1.78

0.01x+0.08x-0.32+0.06x=1.78

0.15x=1.78 +0.32

0.15x=2.10

x=14

therefore

There area 14 one cent stamps

The figure shows a quarter circle and an equilateral triangle. What is thearea of the shaded part? Give your answer to 3 signifi
ad-work [718]

Explanation

The shaded area represents a segment. This can be solved with the formula below;

\mleft(\frac{\theta}{360}\mright)\times\pi r^2-\frac{1}{2}r^2sin\theta

Since the triangle is an equilateral triangle, it implies that the angle subtended at the centre is 60 degrees. Also, the given radius is 7 cm

\begin{gathered} =7^2(\frac{60}{360}\times3.14-\frac{1}{2}\times\sin 60)^{}_{} \\ =49(\frac{3.14}{6}-\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{4}) \\ =4.43\operatorname{cm}^2 \end{gathered}

Answer:

4..43\operatorname{cm}^2

Match the following. 1 . isosceles trapezoid a trapezoid that has two congruent sides (other than the bases) 2 . triangle a quad
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

1. isosceles trapezoid- a trapezoid that has two congruent sides (other than the bases)

2. triangle- a polygon with three sides

3. line symmetry- property where a figure can be folded along a line to create two congruent mirror images

4. line of symmetry- the line which divides a figure into two congruent mirror images

5. rotational symmetry- property where a figure can be rotated less than 360° and still look the same

6. trapezoid- a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides

(10 points) <br> Solve for x. Assume that the lines which appear to be tangent are tangent
Ganezh [65]

The two tangent lines for each circle are the same length. Set the equations to equal and solve for x.

1. 4x + 3 = 3x +12

Subtract 3x from each side:

x +3 = 12

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x = 9

2. -2 + x = 2x -7

Subtract 2x from both sides:

-2 - x =  -7

Add 2 to each side:

-x = -5

Multiply both sides by -1:

x = 5

100 PTS help all information in pictures below
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Question 1: 11%

Question 2: 89%

Question 3: 43%

Question 4: 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at picture 1, we need to find the crossing point between -1.2 and 0.05. That has 0.1056, which is the same as 10.56%. 10.56% rounds to 11%, so C is our answer.

Picture 2 has the same chart, but we just need to find the inverse, since the inequality sign is flipped. 100 - 10.56 is 89.44%, which rounds to 89%, so D is the answer for Picture 2.

Picture 3 has two tables. 0.73 has 76.73% and -0.41 has 34.09%. Subtract 34.09% from 76.73% to get 42.64% That rounds to 43%, so A is the answer.

Picture 4 essentially has the same expression as Picture 2 (only the sign has switched): P(z ≥ 1.25). The meeting point is 89.44%. Now, subtract that from 100 to get 10.56%, which rounds to 11%. C is our answer for Picture 4.

I hope this helps you! ^w^
