Answer:

$175

Step-by-step explanation:

let the original price be x

if 1/5 is off the price then the sells is at 4/5

4/5 of x = 140

thus,

4/5* x=140

4x = 140*5

x=700/4

x=$175

Find the value of x and y

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

It's hard to make out which is x and y, if x is lower right and y is at the top, then:

x = 55°

y = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 55° because it is an isosceles triangle

y = 180° - 55° - 55° = 70°

Simplify by combining like terms 6a + 3b + a + 2

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

$7a+3b+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6a+3b+a+2$

Use commutative property of addition $x+y=y+x$

$6a+3b+a+2=6a+(a+3b)+2$

use associative property of addition $x+(y+2)=(x+y)+2$

$6a+(a+3b)+2=(6a+a)+3b+2\\=7a+3b+2$

Hence $6a+3b+a+2=7a+3b+2$

You are choosing sprinklers for an irrigation system. One sprinkler that covers a full circle specifies a watering radius of 14

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Area= 615 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the formula for area of a circle to find the area watered when a sprinkler covers a full circle

Area of a circle= $\pi r^{2}$

r= 14ft

Area= 3.14 × 14²

Area=615.44 ft²

Area= 615 ft²

Which represents the solution(s) of the system of equations, y + 4 = x2 and y-x=2? Determine the solution set by

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The points (-2, 0) and (3,5) are the ONLY solutions of the given sets of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equations are: $y + 4 = x^{2} , y -x = 2$

Now checking for the given points:

(a) (-2, 0)

Here, $y + 4 = 0 + 4 = 4 = (-2)^{2} = x^{2} \\y- x = 0 -(-2) = 2 = RHS$

Hence, (-2, 0) is the solution of the given equations.

b) Checking for (2,0), as (-2, 0) is a solution as shown above

Here, $y + 4 = 0 + 4 = 4 = (2)^{2} = x^{2} \\y- x = 0 + (-2) = -2 \neq 2(RHS)$

Hence, (2, 0) is NOT the solution of the given equations.

c) Checking for (3,5), as (-2, 0) is a solution as shown above

Here, $y + 4 = 5 + 4 = 9 = (3)^{2} = x^{2} \\y- x = 5 -3 = 2 - (RHS)$

Hence, (3,5), is the solution of the given equations.

Hence, the points (-2, 0) and (3,5) are the ONLY solutions of the given sets of equations.
