Answer: 2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4(22-x)=17-x

66/4-3/4x=34/2-x

33/2-3/4x=34/2-x

1/4x=1/2

x=2

Answer:

that's 2kg because 22*.75 is 17 the difference is -5 each time. 17- another 5 is 12 or 2/4 the original amount. you keep going and at the end you are left with 2kg

Using the unit circle, determine the value of cos(-150°).

<h3>Answer:  -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}</h3>

Explanation:

The identity we'll use is cos(-x) = cos(x) for any value of x.

So cos(-150) = cos(150).

Then locate the angle 150 on the unit circle. The terminal point is \left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \frac{1}{2}\right)

The x coordinate of this terminal point is the value of cos(150).

Let T,S be the number of days spent at Tahoe and San Francisco, respectively.

We don't know the values of T and S yet, but we know that the holiday lasted 9 days:

T+S=9

We also know that each day spent in Tahoe costed 350 and each day spent in San Francisco costed 475. So, the total cost of the holiday is the sum of the number of days muliplied by their cost:

350T+475S=3650

If we put the two equations together, we have the system

\begin{cases}T+S=9\\350T+475S=3650\end{cases}

Which yields

S=4,\quad T=5
