Answer:
All of these terms are dollar amounts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, x + y = 10 (where these numerals represent counts)
(1/2)x + (1/4)y = 4 (where (1/2), (1/4) and 4 are dollar amounts)
Let's eliminate y. To accomplish this, mult. the 2nd eq'n by-4, obtaining
-2x - y = -16, and then combining this with the 1st equation, as follows:
-2x - y = -16
x + y = 10
-------------------
-x = -6, or x = 6. This represents the number of pens purchased by Terrance.
Subbing 6 for x in the first equation, we get y = 4. This represents the number of pencils he bought.
($0.50)x + ($0.25)y = $4.00 (dollar amounts)
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
x (5-y)
Let x=6,and y=1
6(5-1)
PEMDAS says parentheses first
6(4)

The percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370 is:
= 16%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of consignor check, μ = $480
Standard deviation, σ = $110
Value of check received, x > $370
Solution: find the z-score to determine the percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370:
z = (x-μ)/σ
z= ($370 - $480)/$110
z = -$110/$110
z = -1.00
Percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370
= 0.15866
= 0.16
= 16%

Answer: 72.54</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
We set up a cosine ratio, since we want to connect the adjacent and hypotenuse. Then we'll use the inverse cosine, which is also known as arccosine, to isolate the angle value.
This is what your steps could look like:
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(L) = LM/LN
cos(L) = 18/60
cos(L) = 0.3
L = arccos(0.3)
L = 72.542396876278 which is approximate
L = 72.54 degrees approximately
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
