Answer:

x = 1.25

y = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the line that is 8 units long is parallel to the line that is ten units long.

Therefore, both the triangles are similar by AA postulate.

Corresponding sides of of the similar triangles are in proportion.

Therefore,

\frac{5}{x + 5}  =  \frac{7}{y + 7}  =  \frac{8}{10}  \\  \\  \implies \frac{5}{x + 5}  =  \frac{8}{10}  \\  \\ 5 \times 10 = 8(x + 5) \\  \\ 50 = 8x + 40 \\  \\ 50 - 40 = 8x \\  \\ 10 = 8x \\  \\  \frac{10}{8}  = x \\  \\ x = 1.25 \\  \\  \\ \frac{7}{y + 7}  =  \frac{8}{10} \\  \\ 7 \times 10 = 8(y + 7) \\  \\ 70 = 8y + 56 \\  \\ 70 - 56 = 8y \\  \\ 14 = 8y \\  \\  \frac{14}{8}  = y \\  \\ y = 1.75

Find the exact value of sin (x-y) if sinx=4/9 and siny=1/4
Svetach [21]

Answer:

sin(x - y) = 0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the sin values which we need to get cos values

sin (A-B) = sin A cos B - sin B cos A

sin² A + cos² A = 1

sin x = 4/9

cos² x = 1 - sin² x = 1 - 16/81 = 65/81

cos² x = 65/81

cos x = √65/9

sin y = 1/4

cos² y = 1 - sin² y = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16

cos² y = 15/16

cos y = √15/4

sin(x − y) = sin x cos y - sin y cos x

sin(x - y) = 4/9 √15/4 - 1/4 √65/9

sin(x - y) = (4√15-√65)/36

sin(x - y) = 0.21

The cost (in dollars) of a custom made sweatshirt is represented by 3.5n +29.99, where n is the number of different colors in th
juin [17]

Answer:

52.5n+449.85

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost is given for <em>1 sweatshirt</em>. To find the cost of 15 sweatshirts, we need to multiply the expression by 15. Let's do this:

15(3.5n+29.99)\\=15(3.5n+29.99)\\=15(3.5n)+15(29.99)\\=52.5n+449.85

This is the expression that represents the cost of 15 sweatshirts.
