Answer:

34.78 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

1) using the cosine function, I did cos(43)=x/51

This is because cosine is equal to adjacent over hypotnuse

Once I found x, I used the pythagorean theorem to get 34.78 feet

Answer:

5x - 2y = -10 (B.) This should be right so if its not let me know I am stumped on what else it would be

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelism: Same slope but different y-intercept

1 - Get into slope formula

 5x - 2y = 7

<u>- 5x           -5x                </u>

       -2y = -5x + 7

  -2y/-2 = -5x/-2 +7/-2

    y = (5/2)x - 7/2

2 - Plug x and y from (0, 5) into y = mx + b however note the - 7/2 is extranneous and wont be used for b

    y = (5/2)x + b

   5 = (5/2)0 + b

   5 = 0 + b

   5 = b

Therefore

y = 5/2x + 5 is your slope formula.

Now to get x to the other side.

3 - Get it back to standard form.

        y = 5/2x + 5

- 5/2x    -5/2x

- 5/2x + y = 5

(Multiply 2 into everything to get rid of the fraction)

   -5x + 2y = 10

X=17-4y<br> y=x-2<br> answer by substitution
sashaice [31]

Answer:

x=5,y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

the first step is to decide whether you want to substitute y and find x, or substitute x and find y.

(it doesn't matter which way you will choose.If you do the math correctly you will get the correct answer,one way or another).

for example, let's substitute y into the first equation:

x=17-4*(x-2)

so now,we will organize the equation:

x+4x=17+8

5x=25/(÷5)

x=5

now we will substitute x with 5 in the second equation(or the first one,it doesn't matter)in order to find y:

y=5-2

y=3

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 9x+14 items and 7x−5 ​items, respectively. The first plan
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

the first plant would be 2x + 19 more than the second plant

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

There production levels are

9x + 14 and 7x - 5

Now

= 9x + 14 - (7x - 5)

= 9x + 14 - 7x + 5

= 2x + 19

Hence, the first plant would be 2x + 19 more than the second plant

there businessmen makhoa,njau and odhiambo contribute a total amount of sh 120,000 to start a business.the ratio of the contribu
malfutka [58]

Let makoha contribute x then njao contributes x * 3/2 = 1.5x

and odhiambo contributes 1.5x * 2.5 = 3.75 x

so we have the equation x + 1.5x + 3.75x = 120000

6.25x = 120000

x = sh 19,200 which is the amount for makhoa

Answer : amount contributed by odhiambo = 19,200 * 3.75 = sh 72,000
