Answer:

5 felt pads.

7 cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The total number of items is 12
So let the felt sheets be x
Let the cards = y

Equations and Solution

x + y = 12

Now the price is 7.75 that she has to pay for the 12 items. She wants to come back with 0 dollars.

0.5x + 0.75y = 7.75 Multiply this equation by 2

x + 1.5y = 15.50 write the first equation underneath and subtract.

x + y = 12

.5y = 3 Divide by 0.5

y = 3/0.5

y = 7

So she can get 7 cards.

x + y = 12

x + 7 = 12

x = 12 - 7

x = 5

So she can buy 5 felt pads.

Miguel is mixing up a salad dressing. regardless of the number of servings, the recipe requires that 5/8 of the finished dressin

olga_2 [115]

The remainder is 1-5/8-1/4=8/8-5/8-2/8=1/8.
If the quantity of dressing was 24oz, then there would be 15oz of olive oil, 6oz of vinegar and 3oz of mixture, consisting of 1oz each of salt, pepper and sugar.
If the vinegar doubles we have 12oz of vinegar. The quantity of ingredients is 15oz of olive oil, 12oz of vinegar, and 2oz of mixture (no sugar) making 29oz altogether. The proportion of olive oil is therefore 15/29.

Given the value of cos 20° ≈ 0.9397, enter the sine of a complementary angle. Use an expression relating trigonometric ratios of

NARA [144]

cos(20) = sin(70)

note how 20+70 = 90

The general rule is that if x+y = 90, then cos(x) = sin(y). The rule works in reverse as well. Another way to phrase the rule is cos(x) = sin(90-x).

So,

$\cos 20^{\circ} = \boxed{\sin 70^{\circ}} \approx \boxed{0.9397}$

Note: if the computer doesn't like the answer of "sin 70" then try "sin(70)" and see how that works out. It's also possible that the teacher wants the single numeric value of "70" in the first box rather than the "sine" part to go along with it. Though that would be strange and incorrect since cos(20) = 70 is a false statement.
