Answer:

450 portugals

Step-by-step explanation:

in this question, we are tasked with calculating the number of portugals which are picked by the farmer

Firstly, let the number of portugals picked be p and the number of oranges picked be r.

Thus;

p + r = 600 ••••••••••(i)

Secondly there are 3 times as many oranges as there are portugals;

That would be;

3 * r = p

3r = p. •••••••••(ii)

substitute ii into i

3r + r = 600

4r = 600

r = 600/4

r = 150

P = 3r

p = 3 * 150 = 450

Use ABC, in which AB = 48, AC = 64, and BC = 80, to answer the question.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

CosB  = \frac{48}{80}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

AB = 48, AC = 64, and BC = 80

Required

Determine the ratio of cosB

The first step is to determine, which type of triangle it is.

Checking for Right Angled Triangle

For a triangle to be a right angled triangle, the square of the largest side must be equal to the sum of squares of other sides

This implies that:

80^2 = 48^2 + 64^2

6400 = 2304 + 4096

6400 = 6400

<em>Hence, the triangle is a right angled triangle [See attachment]</em>

From trigonometry;

CosB  = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}

The adjacent of B = 48 while the hypotenuse is 80;

Hence;

CosB  = \frac{48}{80}

Hence, the ratio of cos B is CosB  = \frac{48}{80}

HELP PLS GIVING BRAINLIEST
Setler79 [48]

For this case we have by definition, that the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx+b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cutoff point with the y axis

We need two points through which the line passes to find the slope:

(0,1)\\(1, -2)

We found the slope:

m = \frac {y2-y1} {x2-x1}\\m = \frac {-2-1} {1-0} = \frac {-3} {1} = - 3

So, the equation is of the form:

y = -3x + b

We substitute a point to find "b":

1 = -3 (0) + b\\1 = b

Finally, the equation is:

y = -3x+1

Answer:

Option C
