Answer:
answer above or below is right
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the length of one piece
y = the length of the other piece
the total length is 100 cm this means
x + y = 100
one piece is 16 inches longer than the other
first we need to convert inches to cm:
1 in = 2.54 cm
16 in = 2.54*16 = 40.64
now we can write
x = y + 40.64
by solving the system of equations
x + y = 100
x = y + 40.64
we find
x = 70.32 cm
y = 29.68 cm
the lengths of the two pieces are 70.32 cm and 29.68 cm.
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Recall: SOHCAHTOA
1. Reference angle = 70°
Adjacent side = x
Hypotenuse = 6 cm
Apply CAH. Thus,
Cos 70 = adj/hyp
Cos 70 = x/6
6 × cos 70 = x
2.05 = x
x = 2.05 cm
2. Reference angle = 45°
Adjacent side = x
Hypotenuse = 1.3 m
Applying CAH, we would have the following ratio:
Cos 45 = adj/hyp
Cos 45 = x/1.3
1.3 × cos 45 = x
0.92 = x
x = 0.92 m
3. The who diagram is not shown well. Some parts are missing, however you can still solve the problem just the same way we solved problem 1 and 2.
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 5 = -2
<h2>I hope this helped! :)</h2>
x = 3 + y Eqn(1)
y = -2x + 9 Eqn(2)
Let us solve the system of equations with the substitution method
x - 3 = y (Subtracting 3 from both sides of the Eqn(1))
Replacing y = x - 3 in Eqn (2), we have:
x - 3 = -2x + 9
x = -2x + 9 + 3 (Adding 3 to both sides of the equation)
x + 2x = 9 + 3 (Adding 2x to both sides of the equation)
3x = 12 ( Adding like terms)
x = 12/3 (Dividing by 3 on both sides of the equation)
x = 4
Replacing x=4 in Eqn(1), we have:
4 = 3 + y
4 - 3 = y (Subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation)
y=1
The answers are:
x= 4 and y=1
