Courtney purchased 15 cases of small portion meals and 5 cases of large portion meals.
VLD [36.1K]2 years ago

Let's set up two equations:
x+y=20             We know she brought total of 20, some of each so x=small y=big
20x+ 30y=450
 
 x+y= 20
   -y    -y
 ------------
 x= 20 -y

substitute into the other equation:    
20 (20-y) + 30y = 450
400 - 20y + 30y = 450
400+ 10 y = 450
10 y = 50
y= 5

So she brought  5 big cases.  Then substitute the value of y into one of the equations.

5+ x = 20 
x= 15

So we bought 15 small cases and 5 big cases. 

Hope this helps! Please give me the brainliest answer if you like it! If you have further questions, please leave a comment or add me as a friend!

Use ΔABC below to answer the question that follows:
Elza [17]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

To prove Δ ABC similar to ΔDBE  we can consider

Segments AC and DE are parallel.

⇒ DE intersects AB and BC in same ratio.

AB is a transversal line passing AC and DE.

⇒∠BAC=∠BDE [corresponding angles]

Angle B is congruent to itself due to the reflexive property.

All of them are telling a relation of parts of ΔABC to ΔDBE.

The only option which is not used to prove that ΔABC is similar to ΔDBE is the first option ,"The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C".

Verify identity: <br><br> (sec(x)-csc(x))/(sec(x)+csc(x))=(tan(x)-1)/(tan(x)+1)
Nikitich [7]
So hmmm let's do the left-hand-side first

\bf \cfrac{sec(x)-csc(x)}{sec(x)+csc(x)}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{cos(x)}-\frac{1}{sin(x)}}{\frac{1}{cos(x)}+\frac{1}{sin(x)}}\implies &#10;\cfrac{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)sin(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)+cos(x)}{cos(x)sin(x)}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)sin(x)}\cdot \cfrac{cos(x)sin(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}}

now, let's do the right-hand-side then  

\bf \cfrac{tan(x)-1}{tan(x)+1}\implies \cfrac{\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}-1}{\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}+1}\implies \cfrac{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)+cos(x)}{cos(x)}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)}\cdot \cfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)+cos(x)}}
