Answer:

Electrician = 44

Plumber = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Electrician Hourly wage = x

Plumber's hourly wage = y

Average = 33

(x + y ) /2 = 33

x + y = 66 - - - - (1)

7x + 4y = 396 - - - (2)

From (1)

x = 66 - y

Put x = 66 - y in (2)

7(66-y) + 4y = 396

462 - 7y + 4y = 396

-3y = - 66

y = 22

x = 66 - 22

x = 44

Electrician = 44

Plumber = 22

It is given that line segment BC is congruent to line segment EC and that line segment AC is congruent to DC. Because of the vertical angles theorem, angle BCA is equal to angle DCE. Therefore, triangles CBA AND DEC are congruent by SAS. Using CPCTC, BA is equal to ED.

the perimeter of a rectangle is 62 feet.if the width of the rectangle is 19ft. what is the length of the rectangle
denis23 [38]
Perimeter = 2(l+w) or 2(length+width)

So far you have the width, which is 19feet. Since you have two sides of the rectangle which are 19 feet, add 19+19=38

Subtract 62-38 to get 24.

You now have the length of both of the sides combined. So you need to divide 24/2 = 12
The length of the rectangle = 12ft.

Well
It is in the form of a/b + b/a = (a sqr + b sqr)ab

Substitute
(Sin sqr theta + cos sqr theta) +2 cos theta + 1. 2 + 2cos theta
———————————————————————— = ————————-
Sin theta(1+cos theta). Sin theta (1 + cos theta)

2(1+ cos theta)/sin theta(1 + cos theta). {1 + cos theta cancelled}
2/sin theta. Hope it helps :}

What are the solutions of the equation x6 – 9x3 + 8 = 0? Use u substitution to solve.
Natalka [10]
X6 – 9x3 + 8 = 0
let u = x^3
u^2 - 9u + 8 = 0 
(u-8)(u-1) = 0
u = 1,8
back substitute 
1 = x^3
8 = x^3

(Geometry) PLZ HELP ASAP
Marianna [84]

Answer:

121 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is the height multiplied by the base divided by 2. Since this is a right triangle, you can simply use the two legs for this. The area of this triangle is therefore:

\dfrac{24.2\cdot 10}{2}=\dfrac{242}{2}=121

Hope this helps!
