If you add 5x to 2x+2 you will get 7x+2. You would set this equation equal to 80, so it would be 7x+2=80. When you solve this you will get 11.1428571429, which can be rounded to 11, 11.1, or 11.14, whichever you prefer.
Answer:
It costs $0.216 to make smaller can and $0.324 to make larger can
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The ratio of the surface areas = 4:9
Area of smaller cans = 36 sq in
Cost = $0.006 per square inch
To Find:
how much does it cost to make each can = ?
Solution:
Lets the area of the larger can be x
the ratio is 4 : 9
then 4x = 9.(36)
4x = 216

x = 54
The area of the larger can is 54 sq in
Now the cost of making the smaller can =
= $0.216
The cost of making the Larger can =
=$0.324
Well you can start by drawing a triangle with the information
the size of angle B can be found using the Law of Sine

the size of angle C can be found using angle sum of a triangle.
The length of side c can be found using the Law of Cosines
