Answer:

Sam have $\$174$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> amount of money that Sam has

y-----> amount of money that Andy has

we know that

$x+y=340$ -----> equation A

$x=y+8$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$y+8+y=340$

$2y=340-8$

$y=332/2=\$166$

Find the value of x

$x=166+8=\$174$

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The land that is covered with an irrigation arm of 370 ft is $430,084\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the circle

Being r the radius of a circle, its area can be calculated as follows:

$A=\pi\cdot r^2$

The irrigation arm acts as the radius of the irrigation circle, thus r=370 ft. The land covered is the area under the irrigation arm, thus:

$A=\pi\cdot 370^2$

$A=430,084\ ft^2$

The land that is covered with an irrigation arm of 370 ft is $430,084\ ft^2$

Answer C and D please

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

C. solution:

3(3c-2) = 5(2c-1)

or, 9c-6 = 10c-5

or, -6+5 = 10c-9c

or, -1 = 1c

Hence, c = -1.

D. solution:

5(5-2a) = 4(6-a)

or, 25-10a = 24 - 4a

or, 25-24 = -4a+10a

or, 1 = 6a

or, 1/6 = a

Hence, a = 1/6.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

 -1

Step-by-step explanation:

here's your solution

=> The value of x = 1

=> The value of y = 2

=> we need to find ( x - y)

=> so, put the value of above variables in it

=> hence, (1 - 2) = - 1

=> - 1 is correct answer

hope it helps
