Answer:
So, when we solve for x we see that we can make 16 cookies using 1 cup of sugar. Then, yes, as you suggested we could divide 30 cookies by this ratio to see that we need less than 2 cups of sugar to make 30 cookies: And, as you said, this value is less than 2 cups, the value under Quantity B. Good job! I hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent of x is defined to be its sine divided by its cosine: tan x = sin x cos x . The cotangent of x is defined to be the cosine of x divided by the sine of x: cot x = cos x sin x .
About 5 or 4.9 is the estimation
Substitution
Step 1: Solve for x or y in either of the two equations. In the equations that you are given, y is already solved for you.
Step 2: Plug in 2x + 6 into the opposite equation.
2x + 6 = -3x + 16
- 6 - 6
------------------------------
2x = -3x + 10
+ 3x + 3x
------------------------------
5x = 10
------ ------
5 5
x = 2
Step 3: Plug in the x value into either equation.
y = 2(2) + 6
y = 4 + 6
y = 10
The final answer gets expressed as a coordinate pair: (x,y) (2,10)
I hope this helps you :)
The given expression for the area, 81x² - 4y², is a difference of two squares. The first term is the square of 9x and the second term is the square of 2y. The factors of this difference and the therefore the dimensions of the rectangle are, 9x - 2y and 9x + 2y.
