Answer:

Lady purchased 12 trinkets costing $0.30 each and 8 trinkets costing $0.65 each.

Step-by-step explanation:

A lady buys total number of trinkets = 20

Cost of each trinket is either $0.30 or $0.65.

Let the number of trinkets is x she purchased for $0.30 and y for $0.65

Then x + y = 20 --------(1)

Since she spends total amount = $8.80

Then the equation will be

0.30x + 0.65y = 8.80 ---------(2)

We replace x = (20 - y) from equation (1) to equation (2)

0.30(20 - y) + 0.65y = 8.80

6 - 0.30y + 0.65y = 8.80

0.35y + 6 = 8.80

0.35y = 8.80 - 6

0.35y = 2.80

y = \frac{2.80}{0.35}

y = 8

Now we put y = 8 in equation (1)

x + 8 = 20

x = 20 - 8

x = 12

Therefore, lady purchased 12 trinkets costing $0.30 each and 8 trinkets costing $0.65 each.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). \frac{5\pm\sqrt{-4}}{3} = \frac{5}{3}\pm \frac{\sqrt{-4}}{3}

               = \frac{5}{3}\pm\frac{2\sqrt{(-1)} }{3}

               = \frac{5}{3}\pm\frac{2i}{3} [Since, i = \sqrt{(-1)}]

b). \frac{10\pm\sqrt{-16}}{2} = \frac{10}{2}\pm \frac{\sqrt{-16}}{2}

                  = 5\pm \frac{4\sqrt{-1}}{2}

                  = 5 ± 2i [Since, i = \sqrt{(-1)}]

c). \frac{-3\pm \sqrt{-144}}{6} = -\frac{3}{6}\pm \frac{\sqrt{-144}}{6}

                    = -\frac{3}{6}\pm \frac{12\sqrt{-1}}{6}

                    = -\frac{1}{2}\pm 2\sqrt{-1}

                    = -\frac{1}{2}\pm 2i [Since, i = \sqrt{(-1)}]

The function f(t)= 5 tan 2 t, does not have an amplitude and has a period of π.
trasher [3.6K]

ANSWER

False

EXPLANATION

The tangent function has no amplitude because it is not bounded.

The given tangent function is

f(t) = 5 \tan(2t)

This is of the form

f(t)=a tan(bt)

The period is given by

T =  \frac{\pi}{ |b| }

T =  \frac{\pi}{ |2| }  =  \frac{\pi}{2}

The first statement is true but the second is false.

Hence the whole statement is false.

What is 5a + 2/3= -1/6 with two step equations fractions​
Natalija [7]

Answer:

-1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

5a+2/3=-1/6

5a=-1/6-2/3

5a=-1/6-4/6

5a=-5/6

a=(-5/6)/5

a=(-5/6)(1/5)

a=-5/30

simplify

a=-1/6
