Answer:

Cost of one pencil: \$0.07

Cost of one eraser: \$0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "p" the cost in dollars of one pencil and "e" the cost in dollars of one eraser.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following system of equations:

\left \{ {{4p+3e=0.37} \atop {3p+4e=0.33 }} \right.

You can use the Elimination Method to solve the system of equations.

Multiply the first equation by -3 ad the second one by 4. Then add the equations and solve for "e":

{\left \{ {{-12p-9e=-1.11} \atop {12p+16e=1.32}} \right.\\..........................\\7e=0.21\\\\e=0.03

Substitute the value of "e" into any original equation  and solve for "p":

4p+3(0.03)=0.37\\\\p=\frac{0.28}{4}\\\\p=0.07

How many different triangles can you make if you are given the measurements for two Angles and the length of a side that is not
nordsb [41]

Answer:

  c.  2

Step-by-step explanation:

Defining two angles of a triangle means you know the values of all of the angles. When all angles are known and the side opposite one of them is known, then the triangle is completely determined.

In this case, the angle opposite the given side can be either of the two given angles, so two triangles are possible.

__

If the two angles have the same measure, then only one triangle is possible.
