Answer:

goldfish is 15 and guppies is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the number of goldfish be x

and the number of guppies be y

so

x+y= 25----------1

and

3x+4y= 86-------2

solve 1 and 2

x+y= 25

3x+4y= 86

from 1

x= 25-y

put this in 2

3(25-y)+4y= 86

75-3y+4y= 86

75+y= 86

y= 86-75

y=11

put y= 11 in 1

x+11= 26

x= 26-11

x= 15

Hence goldfish is 15 and guppies is 11

The perimeter of a rectangular pool is 326 M if the length of the pool is 87 M what is its width​
sveta [45]

Half the perimeter is equal to the length plus the width.

326 /2 = 163

Length + width = 163

87 + width = 163

Width = 163 - 87

Width = 76 meters

This is a 3 part question, PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLY
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Angle of A = 90 degree-62 degree =  28 degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

tan (62) = opposite / adjacent = 10 / a ---> a = 10/tan (62) = 10/ 1.88 = 5.319

cos (62) = a/c --->c = a/cos (62) = 5.319 / 0.47  = 5.3 / 0.47  = 11.3

or another way.

sin (62) = 10 /c  ---> c = 10/ sin (62) = 10 / 0.88 = 11.3

So Angle of A = 28 degree.

a = 5. 3

c =  11.3.

please give me brainliest. I hope it help.

Lee is thinking of two Numbers,the product is 18. the quotient is 2
defon
X, y - the numbers

The product is 18.
xy=18

The quotient is 2.
\frac{x}{y}=2 \ \ \ |\times y \\
x=2y

Substitute 2y for x in the 1st equation:
2y \times y=18 \\
2y^2=18 \ \ \ |\div 2 \\
y^2=9 \\
y=\pm \sqrt{9} \\
y=3 \ \lor \ y=-3 \\ \\
x=2y \\
x=2 \times 3 \ \lor \ x=2 \times (-3) \\
x=6 \ \lor \ x=-6 \\ \\
(x,y)=(6,3) \hbox{ or } (x,y)=(-6,-3)

The numbers are 6 and 3 or -6 and -3.
