Answer:

m = 100, t = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

m +  t = 180

6m + 8t = 1240

The highway mileage m in miles per gallon for a compact car is approximated by m(s) = -0.025s^2 + 2.45s - 30, where s is the spe
Over [174]
The maximum mileage per gallon for the compact car is determined by taking the first derivative of the given equation and equate to zero. The differentiated form is m's = -0.05 s + 2.45 = 0; s is equal to 49 seconds. substituting this s, m is equal to 30.025 miles/gallon.

A line passes through (10,4) and (13,-11). Write the equation of the line in standard form.
AlexFokin [52]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{13}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-11}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-11-4}{13-10}\implies \cfrac{-15}{3}\implies -5 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-4=-5(x-10)


now

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

therefore,


\bf y-4=-5(x-10)\implies y-4=-5x+50\implies \blacktriangleright 5x+y=54 \blacktriangleleft

What is the cosecant of angle X?
givi [52]

Answer:

cscX = \frac{y}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

using the trigonometric identity

cscX = \frac{1}{sinX}

sinX = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{x}{y}

cscX = \frac{1}{\frac{x}{y} } = \frac{y}{x}
