Answer:

Let n be the number of 25 cent stamps.Then, 28 - n must be the number of 29 cent stamps.Tim paid $7.60 the stamps.

0.25n + 0.29(28 - n) = 7.60

This means that n stamps at 25 cents a piece plus (28 - n) stamps at 29 cents a piece sum to $7.60.Solve for m.

0.25n + 8.12 - 0.29n = 7.60

-0.04n = -0.52

n = 13

So, Tim bought 13 25-cent stamps and 28 - 13 = 15 29-cent stamps

Question 8 of 10 What is sin 30º? 60 2 901 D A B. c.. () E. E )

levacccp [35]

Answer:

A. $\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Trigonometry

[Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA
[Right Triangles Only] sinθ = opposite over hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

sin 30°

Step 2: Solve

Since sin is opposite over hypotenuse, we need to find the length of the opposite leg of the angle and the length of the hypotenuse.

Given the triangle and it's values, the opposite leg to the 30° angle is 1 and the hypotenuse is 2.

Substituting it into sin, we have:

sin 30° = 1/2 = 0.5

∴ our answer is A.

A magazine subscription costs $29.88 for 12 issues or $15.24 for 6 issues. Which subscription costs more per issue? How much mor

Valentin [98]

Answer:

The magazine that cost $15.24 for 6 issues cost more by $0.60/60 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $15.24 is 6 issues each and you need to even out the issues add $15.24+$15.24 then you would get $30.48, because its 15.24 each 6 add them both and it would be 12 issues. And the first issue $29.88 for 12 issues is only $29.88 while the other is $30.48 so the one with 6 issues/the second cost more than the first.

60 cents more because 29.88+60=30.48.
