Solid paper costs 1.75 each
Printed paper costs 2.50 each

Given:
Ben = $43.50 (12 rolls solid paper and 9 rolls of
printed paper)
Joel = $51.50 (8 rolls solid paper and 15 rolls of
printed paper)
Let x = solid paper
Let y= printed paper
12x + 9y = 43.50
8x + 15y = 51.50

Find X:
8x + 15y = 51.50
8x = 51.50 - 15y
x= (51.50 - 15y)8

Substitute X:
12x + 9y = 43.50
12(51.50 - 15y)/8 + 9y = 43.50
(618 - 180y)/8 + 9y = 43.50
8 (618 - 180y)/8 + 8*9y = 43.50 * 8
618-180y + 72y =348
-108y = 348 - 618
-108y =-270
-108y/-108=-270/-108

Y= 2.50

x = (51.50 - 15y)/8
x = (51.50 - 15(2.5) /8
x= (51.50 - 37.50\8
X = 14/8

X = 1.75

To check: x = 1.75; y = 2.5
12x + 9y = 43.50
12(1.75) + 9(2.5) = 43.50
21 + 22.50 = 43.50
43.50 = 43.50
8x + 15y = 51.50
8(1.75) + 15(2.5) = 51.50
14 + 37.50 = 51.50
51.50 = 51.50

Hope that helps! Have a good day :)

An isosceles triangle has slant height s and angle t opposite the base. Find a formula for the base length b in terms of the ang
Mars2501 [29]

OK, let's try with no figure.  We have an isosceles triangle sides s,s, and b.

Opposite b is angle t.

Draw the altitude h to bisect t.  We have two right triangles, legs b/2 and h, hypotenuse s.  The angle opposite b/2 is t/2 so

sin(t/2) = (b/2)/s = b/2s

So we arrived at the first part,

b = 2s sin(t/2)

The area of a triangle with sides s,s and included angle t is

A = (1/2) s² sin t

Answer:

  • 8 3/4
  • 2, 3
  • 4 1/2, 11 1/4
  • 9 3/4, 16 1/4
  • Y/B = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>a)</h3>

The first line is simply the sum of the two given numbers.

  3 1/2 +5 1/4 = (3+5) +(2/4+1/4) = 8 3/4

__

To find values on the remaining lines, it is convenient to find the ratios of the numbers involved. The ratio of yellow to blue is ...

  Y/B = (3 1/2)/(5 1/4) = (7/2)/(21/4) = (7/2)(4/21) = 2/3

Then ...

  Y : B : total = 2 : 3 : 5

This tells you the numbers on the second line are ...

  Y = 2; B = 3

__

The value for B on the third line is the basic ratio number multiplied by (6 3/4)/3 = 2 1/4. Then the other two numbers are ...

  Y = 2(2 1/4) = 4 1/2

  total = 5(2 1/4) = 11 1/4

__

The value for Y on the fourth line is the basic ratio number multiplied by (6 1/2)/2 = 3 1/4. Then the other two numbers are ...

  B = 3(3 1/4) = 9 3/4

  total = 5(3 1/4) = 16 1/4

_____

<h3>b)</h3>

The equation is the one we used to find the values on the second line:

  Y/B = 2/3
