Answer:

21.7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can use trig functions. We are given the side adjacent to the 37° given and we are looking for the hypotenuse. This means that cosine function is the most suitable. Cosine is written as:

cos(θ°) = adjacent / hypotenuse

We can substitute the values we have:

cos(37°) = 17.3 / x

And rewrite the expression:

x = 17.3 / cos(37°)

Then, use a calculator to evaluate:

x = 21.66194689

This can be rounded to 21.7

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (-3,-1) with a slope of 4.
Bingel [31]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = 4
(-3,-1)...x = -3 and y = -1
now we sub...we r looking for b, the y int.
-1 = 4(-3) + b
-1 = -12 + b
-1 + 12 = b
11 = b

so ur equation is : y = 4x + 11

Joe sold a total of 10 baked goods. Each cookie costs $1.25 and each brownie costs $2.50. Joe made $20 at the bake sale. How man
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

4 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cookies he sold be c and that of brownies be b.

Assuming that brownies and cookies are the only type of baked goods sold,

b +c= 10 -----(1)

Amount of money received= $20

b(cost of brownie) +c(cost of cookie)= $20

2.50b +1.25c= 20 -----(2)

From (1): b= 10 -c -----(3)

Substitute (3) into (2):

2.50(10 -c) +1.25c= 20

Expand:

2.50(10) +2.50(-c) +1.25c= 20

25 -2.50c +1.25c= 20

-1.25c +25= 20

Being constants to 1 side:

-1.25c= 20 -25

-1.25c= -5

c= -5 ÷(-1.25)

c= 4

Thus, Joe sold 4 cookies.
