Answer:

flour $42 , bag of sugar $58

Step-by-step explanation:

let f represent flour and s represent sugar, then

7f + 5s = 584 → (1)

5f + 3s = 384 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by - 5 and adding will eliminate s

21f + 15s = 1752 → (3)

- 25f - 15s = - 1920 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate s , that is

- 4f = - 168 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

f = 42

Substitute f = 42 into either of the 2 equations and solve for s

Substituting into (1)

7(42) + 5s = 584

294 + 5s = 584 ( subtract 294 from both sides )

5s = 290 ( divide both sides by 5 )

s = 58

The cost of a bag of flour is $42 and cost of sugar is $58

Find the area of an equilateral triangle (regular 3 Gon) with the given measurement 9 in perimeter a=SQ.in
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

3.897 in^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

equilateral triangles are also equiangular, meaning the have equal angles.

Triangle sum theory says that angles of a triangle add up to 180.

That means each angle is 60.

A = bh/2

You need the (h). The base of is 3.  Perimeter = 9, so each side is 3

Draw a perpendicular line for the height. The line cuts the base in half (1.5)

Using trigonometry you can find the height.

tan 60° = h/1.5

h = height, 1.5 is half of 3, 60° is the base angle.

multiply each side by 1.5

1.5(tan 60°) = h

h=2.598

then substitute h into formula

A= <u>(2.598)(3) </u>

           2

A = 3.897 rounded
