Scrat [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Approximately 25p (please change to pounds by yourself I'm not European, sorry).

Ok so according to my research its 100 pence to one pound. Which will mean that 25p in pounds is £ 00.25

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>let's say:</h3><h3>10p= <em>x</em></h3><h3>20p=<em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em></h3><h3>50p= <em>z</em><em> </em></h3><h3>'3 fewer 20p (<em>y</em><em>)</em><em> </em>coins than 10p (<em>x</em>) coins'</h3><h3>Therefore:</h3><h3>y-3=<em>x</em><em> </em></h3><h3>and <em>y</em>= <em>x</em>+3</h3><h3>'7 more 50p coins (<em>z</em>) than 10p coins (<em>x</em>)'</h3><h3>That is:</h3><h3><em>z</em>+7= <em>x</em></h3><h3><em>z</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>x-7</em></h3><h3>'altogether are 61 coins'</h3><h3><em>x</em><em>+</em><em>y</em><em>+</em><em>z</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em>61 </h3><h3>(substitute for y and z)</h3><h3><em>x</em><em> </em>+ <em>x</em><em> </em>+ 3 + <em>x</em><em> </em>- 7 = 61</h3><h3><em>x</em><em>+</em><em>x</em><em>+</em><em>x</em><em>+</em><em>3</em><em>-7</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em>61</h3><h3>3<em>x</em><em> </em>- 4= 61</h3><h3>3<em>x</em>= 61 + 4</h3><h3>3<em>x</em>=65</h3><h3><em>x</em>= 65÷3</h3><h3><em>x</em>= (approximately) 21.6 </h3><h3>(Substitute <em>x</em><em> </em>in <em>y</em><em> </em>and <em>z</em>)</h3><h3><em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>+</em>3</h3><h3><em>y</em><em> </em>= 21.6 + 3 = 24.6 (approximately 25)</h3><h3><em>z</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em>-7</h3><h3><em>z</em><em>=</em><em> </em>21.6-7= 14.6 (approximately 15)</h3><h3>y= 20p </h3><h3>y= 25p (approximately)</h3><h3 /><h3><u>Check</u><u> </u></h3><h3>x+y+z= ?</h3><h3>21.6 + 24.6 + 14.6= 60.8 (approximately 61)</h3>

(Sorry I couldn't change to pounds)

And I tried to explain as much as possible, you can ask if you're confused.

What is the slope of the line joining (8,8) and (12, 6)?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ -  \frac{1}{2} }}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\

From the question we have

m =  \frac{6 - 8}{12 - 8}  =  -  \frac{2}{4}  =  -  \frac{1}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

-  \frac{1}{2}  \\

Hope this helps you

1) The angle of elevation of the top of the building at a distance of 50 m from its foot on a horizontal
seropon [69]

Answer:

the height of the building is 86.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

In the right triangle, the height which we are looking for is the opposite side, since it is opposite to the angle 60°

Now we need to find the height of the building

tanθ = Opposite side/Adjacent side

tan 60° = Opp side/Adj side

1.7321 = Opp side/50

1.7321 x 50 = Opp side

Opp side = 50 x 1.7321

Opp side = 86.6 m

Therefore, the height of the building is 86.6m.
