Answer:

Cost of each roast beef sandwich = $7

Cost of each ham sandwich = $8

Step-by-step explanation:

x = cost of each roast beef sandwich

y = cost of each ham sandwich

2x + 5y = 54 (1)

5x + 3y = 59 (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 2

10x + 25y = 270

10x + 6y = 118

Subtract to eliminate x

25y - 6y = 270 - 118

19y = 152

Divide both sides by 19

y = 152 / 19

= 8

y = $8

Substitute y = 8 into (1)

2x + 5y = 54 (1)

2x + 5(8) = 54

2x + 40 = 54

2x = 54 - 40

2x = 14

x = 14 / 2

x = $7

Cost of each roast beef sandwich = $7

Cost of each ham sandwich = $8

The sine and cosine of one of the acute angles in a right triangle are equal. What is the tangent of the angle?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x), if sin(x) = cos(x) then tan(x) must be 1.

You can even reason that the acute angle is 45° and sin(x)=cos(x) = \frac12\sqrt2.
