Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need two facts

The smallest angle is opposite the smallest side
The name is the letter not making up the line.

RP is the smallest side

Q is the smallest angle

PQ is the next smallest side

R is the next smallest angle

QR is the largest side

P is the greatest angle

<Q <R <P is the correct order from smallest to largest

That's the second one from the top.

The Capulet and Montague families love writing. Last year, each Capulet wrote 4 essays, each Montague wrote 6 essays, and both f

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Infinite solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, number of Capulet family = x and number of Montague family = y.

Since, last year, each Capulet wrote 4 essays and each Montague wrote 6 essays.

Moreover, total essays wrote last year are 100.

So, we get, 4x + 6y = 100.

Again, this year, each Capulet wrote 8 essays and each Montague wrote 12 essays.

Moreover, total essays wrote this year are 200.

So, we get, 8x + 12y = 200.

Thus, the system of equations is given by,

4x + 6y = 100.

8x + 12y = 200.

Dividing first equation by 2 and second equation by 4, we get the equation,

2x + 3y = 50.

Since, there is only one equation and two variables i.e. x and y.

There can be infinite number of possibilities for the values of x and y.

helena needs 3.5 cups of flour per loaf of bread and 2.5 cups of flour per batch of muffins. she also needs 0.75 cup of sugar pe

tatuchka [14]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

She can make 2 loaves of bread and 4 batches of muffins.

Explanation:

Let b represent bread and m represent muffins.

The equation for the amount of flour she needs is 3.5b+2.5m=17.

The equation for the amount of sugar she needs is 0.75b+0.75m=4.5.

To solve this, we will want to eliminate one of the variables. To do this, we will make the coefficients of one of the variables the same. If we multiply 2.5 by 0.3, we get 0.75; this is what we will do to the first equation:

$\left \{ {{0.3(3.5b+2.5m=17)} \atop {0.75b+0.75m=4.5}} \right. \\ \\\left \{ {{1.05b+0.75m=17} \atop {-(0.75b+0.75m=4.5)}} \right. \\ \\0.3b=0.6 \\ \\\frac{0.3b}{0.3}=\frac{0.6}{0.3} \\ \\b=2$

She can bake two loaves of bread.

Substituting 2 for b in the first equation, we have

3.5(2)+2.5m=17

7+2.5m=17

Subtract 7 from each side:

7+2.5m-7=17-7

2.5m=10

Divide both sides by 2.5:

2.5m/2.5 = 10/2.5

m = 4

She can bake 4 batches of muffins.
