Answer:

£165

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{198}{y} :\frac{120}{100}$

y · 120 = 198 · 100

120y = 19800

120y ÷ 120 = 19800 ÷ 120

y = 165

The line with equation a + 4b = 0 coincides with the terminal side of an angle θ in standard position and cos θ>0 . What is t

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

$\frac{-1}{\sqrt{17} }$

Step-by-step explanation

We have given that equation of line a+4b=0

⇒4b= -a

⇒ $b= \frac{-a}{4}$

slope of line = $tan\theta =\frac{P}{B}= \frac{-1}{4}$

⇒ $tan\theta$ is negative therefore it lies into 4th quadrant

By, Pythagoras theorem $H^2=P^2+B^2$

by putting value of P= -1 & B=4

the value of $H=\sqrt{17}$

with the given condition $cos\theta>0$

i.e. $\theta$ ∈ (3π/2, 2π)

now, $sin\theta= \frac{P}{H}= \frac{-1}{\sqrt{17}}$

Solve the system.<br> x + y - z = 17<br> y +z = 1<br> z = -3

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

(10, 4, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

z = -3

y + z = 1

y - 3 = 1

y = 4

x + y - z = 17

x + 4 - -3 = 17

x + 4 + 3 = 17

x + 7 = 17

x = 10
