Answer:

Hat costs $17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one sweater.

Let y represent the cost of one hat.

James spent 4/5 of his birthday money on three sweaters and four hats. This means that she spent 4/5 of his birthday money on 3x +4y

Each sweater cost twice as much as each hat. It means that

x = 2y

Assuming his total birthday money was $z and after spending 4/5 of it on the hats and sweaters, he had $35 left after his shopping spree, then,

z - 4z/5 = 35

Cross multiplying by 5

5z - 4z = 175

z = 175

This means that his birthday money was $175

It means that

3x + 4y = 175 - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 2y into equation 1, it becomes

3(2y) + 4y = 175

6x + 4y = 175

10y = 175

x = 175/10= 17.5

x = 2y = 17.5×2 = $35

How to find the average squared distance between the points of the unit disk and the point (1,1)
ddd [48]
The unit disk can be parameterized by the function

\mathbf p(r,\theta)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta)

where 0\le r\le 1 and 0\le\theta\le2\pi. The squared distance between any point in this region (x,y)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta) and the point (1, 1) is

(x-1)^2+(y-1)^2=(r\cos\theta-1)^2+(r\sin\theta-1)^2
=(r^2\cos^2\theta-2r\cos\theta+1)+(r^2\sin^2\theta-2r\sin\theta+1)
=r^2(\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta)-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2
=r^2-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2

The average squared distance is then going to be the ratio of [the sum of all squared distances between every point in the disk and the point (1, 1)] to [the area of the disk], i.e.

\dfrac{\displaystyle\iint_{x^2+y^2
=\dfrac{\displaystyle\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{r=0}^{r=1}[r^2-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2]r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta}{\displaystyle\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{r=0}^{r=1}r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta}
=\dfrac{\frac{5\pi}2}\pi=\dfrac52

Graph the system of inequalities y&gt; 2x-3 and 3y-x≤6
Veronika [31]
Y > 2x - 3
3y - x ≤ 6
       ↓
y = 2x - 3
3y - x = 6

    3(2x - 3) - x = 6
3(2x) - 3(3) - x = 6
        6x - 9 - x = 6
        6x - x - 9 = 6
             5x - 9 = 6
             <u>    + 9 + 9</u>
                  <u>5x</u> = <u>15</u>
                   5      5
                    x = 3
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(3) - 3
y = 6 - 3
y = 3
(x, y) = (3, 3)
