Answer:

Each person will earn $16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of loss faced by the company = $144

Number of people who would share the amount = 9

Let,

x be the share of each person.

Number of people * Share per person = Total loss

9x = 144

Dividing both sides by 9

\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{144}{9}\\

x = $16

Hence,

Each person will earn $16.

What is the justification for the first step in proving the formula for factoring the sum of cubes?
Anna11 [10]

Explanation:

The formula isnt correctly written, it should state:

a^3+b^3 = (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)

You have to start from (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)  and end in a³+b³. On your first step, you need to use the distributive property.

(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2) = a*(a^2-ab+b^2) + b*(a^2-ab+b^2)

This is equal to

a*a^2-a*(ab) + a*b^2 + b*a^2-b*(ab) + b*b^2 = a^3 - a^2b + ab^2 +ba^2 -b^2a +b^3

Note that the second term, -a²b, is cancelled by the fourth term, ba², and the third term, ab², is cancelled by the fifht term, -b²a. Therefore, the final result is a³+b³, as we wanted to.

Lace edging is sold by the foot for $0.80 or by the foot for $1.99. Which is more expensive
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

$1.99 is more expensive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

One type of lace edging cost $0.80 per foot

Another type of lace edging cost $1`.99 per foot.

We need to find which is more expensive.

In $0.88 where one's place is 0.

In $1.99 where one's place is 1.

By comparing the one's place obviously $1.99 more expensive.

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

Use the Law of Sines to find the measure of angle J to the nearest degree.
rjkz [21]
\bf \textit{Law of sines}
\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{sin(\measuredangle A)}{a}=\cfrac{sin(\measuredangle B)}{b}=\cfrac{sin(\measuredangle C)}{c}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{sin(J)}{9.1}=\cfrac{sin(97^o)}{11}\implies sin(J)=\cfrac{9.1\cdot sin(97^o)}{11}
\\\\\\
\textit{now taking }sin^{-1}\textit{ to both sides}
\\\\\\
sin^{-1}\left[ sin(J) \right]=sin^{-1}\left( \cfrac{9.1\cdot sin(97^o)}{11} \right)
\\\\\\
\measuredangle J=sin^{-1}\left( \cfrac{9.1\cdot sin(97^o)}{11} \right)

crimeas [40]

Answer:

8a+1=33

Step-by-step explanation:

you can solve 3a-2=10 by simplifying to 3a=12, so a=4. Then you replace the a in 8a+1 with 4 to get 32+1, which is 33
