Answer:

Elsa sent 15, Lamar sent 30, and Keith sent 23

Step-by-step explanation:

If x=Elsa, L=Lamar, and K=Keith

2x=L

x+8=K

x+x+8+2x= 68

4x+8=68

4x=60

x=15

Then you plug 15 into x, and solve for each person.

(15)2=L

(15)+8=K

“a railroad bridge spans a gorge 40 feet wide and connects two cliffs at heights of 98 and 158 feet above the bottom of the gorg
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Height above the bottom gorge is 113 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of the gorge = 40 feet

The height of the higher cliff = 158 feet

The height of the lower cliff = 98 feet

The length of the bridge = √((158-98)² + 40²) = 72.11 feet

The slope of the bridge = (158-98)/40 = 1.5

The length of 1/4 of the bridge from the lower cliff =72.11 - 3/4×72.11 = 18.03 feet

The angle of inclination of the bridge = tan⁻¹(1.5) = 56.31°

The height above the bottom at 3/4 from the higher cliff = The height above the bottom at 1/4 from the lower cliff = 98+ 18.03×sin(56.31 ) = 113 feet

Which can also be found directly from the heights of the two cliffs knowing that 3/4 from the higher cliff = 1/4 from the lower cliff giving;

Height above the bottom gorge = 98 + 1/4×(158 - 98) = 113 feet.

My name is Ann [436]
Switch sides

4/5 (x+3)=y+6

Multiply both sides by 5

5*4/5 (x+3) = 5y+5*6

Simplify

4(x+3) = 57+30

Divide both sides by 4

4(x+3)/4 = 5y/4+ 30/4

Simplify

x+3 = 5y+30/4 

Subtract 3 from both sides

x+3 - 3 = 5y+30/4 - 3

Simplify 

x=5y+30/4 - 3
