Step-by-step explanation:
how many feet of fence is he doing
Haha, part of my final today was about this! Don't worry, I got you!
y=2/3x-4
(the 2/3 is supposed to be a fraction)
Answer:
B. r + l = 45; 2r + 3l = 96
39 regular; 6 long-distance
Step-by-step explanation:
There were 45 baskets, so
(1) r + l = 45
There were 96 points in the game, so
(2) 2r + 3l = 96
Solve equation (1) for l
l = 45 – r Substitute the value for l in Equation (2)
2r + 3(45 – r) = 96 Remove parentheses
2r + 135 - 3r = 96 Combine like terms
-r + 135 = 96 Subtract 135 from each side
-r = -39 Multiply each side by -1
r = 39 Substitute the value of r in Equation (1)
39 + l = 45 Subtract 39 from each side
l = 6
===============
Check:
(1) 39 + 6 = 45
45 = 45
(2) 2×39 + 3×6 = 96
78 + 18 = 96
96 = 96
Ugh, more algebra pretending to be geometry. Why?
This is a pretty awful instance of the genre, with no units on the constant 16, assumed to be degrees.
The total arc measure in a circle is 360 degrees. Geometry part over.
3m + 16 + 2m + 3m = 360
8m = 344
m = 344/8 = 43
Arc measures:
Arc 3m+16 = 3(43)+16 = 145°. The angle subtended by that arc is half that, 145/2=72.5°
Arc 2m=2(43)=86°. The angle subtended is half that, 43°
Arc 3m=3(43)=129°. The angle subtended is half that, 64.5°
