A. Renard let’s t= the number of taffy bags and c= the number of Carmel bags. Help him write two equations to represent the info

rmation in the problem.
b. Now are are is stuck. He says, “if both of the equations were in the form ‘t= something’, I could set the two expressions equal to each other to find the solution.” Help him rewrite the equations into a form he can use to solve the problem.


c. Solve Renard’s system of equations to find the number of bags of Carmel and number of bags of taffy that Ariel bought.


d. How you can verify that your solution is correct?

Answer:

  • 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • t = the number of taffy bags
  • c = the number of caramel bags
  • Number of taffy's are 5 more than caramel bags
  • Taffy bags weigh 8 ounces and caramel bags weigh 16 ounces
  • Total weight is 400 ounces

<u>Equations:</u>

  • t = c + 5             (the difference in number of bags)
  • 8t + 16c = 400  (the weight of the bags)

<u>Simplify the second equation by dividing all terms by 8:</u>

  • t + 2c = 50

<u>Substitute t and solve for c:</u>

  • c + 5 + 2c = 50
  • 3c = 50 - 5
  • 3c = 45
  • c = 45/3
  • c = 15

<u>Find the value of t:</u>

  • t = 15 + 5 = 20

<u>Answer:</u>

  • 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags

Let ABC be an isosceles triangle with AB = AC and ∠BAC=30°. Side AB and the median AD contain points Q and P respectively (point
juin [17]

Answer:

15°

brainlest

Step-by-step explanation:

Since P is on the median of ΔABC, it is equidistant from points B and C as well as from C and Q. Thus, points B, C, and Q all lie on a circle centered at P. (See the attached diagram.)

The base angles (B and C) of triangle ABC are (180° -30°)/2 = 75°. This means arc QC of the circle centered at P has measure 150°. The diameter of circle P that includes point Q is defined to intersect circle P at R.

Central angle RPC is the difference between arcs QR and QC, so is 180° -150° = 30°. Inscribed angle RQC has half that measure, so is 15°.  Angle PQC has the same measure as angle RQC, so is 15°.

Angle PQC is 15°.
