Degree is the value of the highest power of the variable, and hence in this case is 8
Answer:
y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=42. We know that x plus y equals 42.
x=2y . We also know that x equals twice y.
2y+y=42. Since we know that x=2y, we're going to replace x with 2y from the original equation, simplified would be 3y=42.
y=14. 3y=42 simplified is y=14, this is because we divided both sides by 3 (since 3 and 42 are both divisible by 3) (btw divisible by 3 simply means that it can be divided by 3)
x+14=42. Now that we know what y equals, let's replace y with 14 from the original equation.
x=28. Now that we know that x=28 and y=14, we know that y is always x/2.
When x=-8, we divide it by 2 and get, -4.
Not absolutely positive as this was all mental math, but hope this helps! :)
Answer:
All sides are the same length (congruent) and all interior angles are the same size (congruent). To find the measure of the angles, we know that the sum of all the angles is 1260 degrees (from above)... And there are nine angles... So, the measure of the angle of a regular nonagon is 140 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose:
C=cost
c=cost per kilo-watt hour
w=number of watts
h=number of hours
thus
C=kwhc
where:
k=constant of proportionality:
k=C/(whc)
but
C=15 when w=6000, h=10/60=1/6 hours, c=7.5 cents per kw/h
thus
k=15/(6000*1/6*7.5)
k=0.002
thus:
C=0.002(whc)
hence:
when
h=70*2=140=140/6=70/3 hours the cost will be:
C=0.002(6000*70/3*7.5)
C=2100 cents
C=$21
