Answer: 17.5 or 35/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(If you change 4/5 to a decimal, it makes this easier. 4/5 would be 0.8.)

23.6 = (12 + x)*0.8

23.6 = 9.6 + 0.8x

14 = 0.8x

17.5 = x

17.5 as an improper fraction would be 35/2.

A biologist is comparing the growth of a population of flies per week to the number of flies a bullfrog will consume per week. S
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Realize that since 2x and 3x - 1 are equal to each other, they are also equal to y. This means that we can craft two equations, y = 2x and y = 3x - 1.


When you want to solve a systems of equations via a graph, you need to plot both equations on a graph and determine the x- and y-value of where the lines intersect. In this case, we would plot both y = 2x and y = 3x - 1. These lines intersect at the point (1, 2).


Since we are trying to find the day the bullfrog will be able to eat the entire population, or x, we are going to use the x-value of our point as our answer. Thus, our answer is 1 day.

Given the figure. Find AC.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Image is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

AC = 10sin 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached, using terms in trigonometric ratio, AC is the opposite side, BC is the adjacent side and AB is the hypotenuse.

Thus, since we want to find AC;

We know that in trigonometric ratios; opposite/hypotenuse = sin θ

In the diagram, θ = 40° and AB = 10

Thus,

AC/10 = sin 40°

Multiply both sides by 10 to get;

AC = 10sin 40°
