Length of x is 98.2 m
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Use the trigonometric ratio tan 27° to find the common side of both the right angled triangles.
tan 27° = opposite side/adjacent side = opposite side/9
∴ Opposite side = 9 tan 27° = 9 × - 3.27 = -29.46 m
Step 2:
Use this side and trigonometric ratio cosine to find the value of x.
cos 49° = adjacent side/x = -29.46/x
∴ x = -29.46/cos 49° = -29.46/0.30
= 98.2 m (negative value neglected)
Answer:
Kayla bought 7 tacos and 10 hotdogs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hotdogs be x.
Let the number of tacos be y.
i) It is given that x = y + 3
ii) It is also given that 3.5x + 4y = 63, therefore 7x + 8y = 126
iii) substituting the value of x from i) in ii) we get 7(y + 3) + 8y = 126
therefore 15y + 21 = 126
therefore 15y = 105
therefore y = 7
Therfore Kayla bought 7 tacos
iv) Using the value of y from iii) in i) we x = 7 + 3 = 10
Therefore Kayla bought 10 hotdogs
