Answer:

39.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying

s = 2πrθ/360................ Equation 1

Where s = length of an arc or distance traveled by the minutes hand of the clock during the 42 munites, r = length of the minutes hand of the clock, θ = Angle traveled by the minute hand of the clock for every 42 minutes

From the question,

Given: r = 9 cm, θ = 252°

Constant: π = 22/7 = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

s = (2×3.14×9×252)/360

s = 39.564

s = 39.6 cm

Hello there!

3x - y = 3
-x + y = 3

We need to solve 3x - y = 3 for y

Let start by adding -3x to both sides

3x - y = 3

3x - 3x - y = 3 - 3x

-y = 3 - 3x
We cannot leave the variable with a negative sign. We must multiply both sides by -1

-y * -1= (3 - 3x)-1

y = 3x - 3

Substitute 3x -3 for y in -x+y=3

-x + y = 3

-x + 3x - 3 = 3

2x - 3 = 3

2x = 3 + 3

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Now substitute 3 for x in y=3x -3

y = 3x - 3

y = 3(3) - 3

y= 9 - 3

y= 6

Thus,

The answer is x=3 and y=6

Molly earns a rebate each month on her movie tickets and books. She earns $0.25 for each movie ticket and $2 for each book. Last
Sliva [168]

The algebraic equation is 4(0.25)+2x=17

STEP 1: Simplify both sides of the equation

1+2x=17  or  2x+1

STEP 2: Subtract both sides

2x = 16

STEP 3: Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 16/2

x = 8

Which pair are equal trig values? A) tan 45° and sin 45° Eliminate B) sin 40° and sin 50° C) sin 36° and cos 54° D) cos 65° and
ira [324]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

note that sin x = cos(90 - x ) ← Cofunction identity

If x = 36 then 90 - x = 90 - 36 = 54

Hence sin 36° = cos 54° → C
