Hey!
Let p = cost of a pen
<span>Let n = cost of a notebook </span>
<span>The info in the question leads to two equations: </span>
<span>1) 2p + 3n = 5.55 </span>
<span>2) p + 2n = 3.50 </span>
<span>Multiply equation 2) by 2 to get the new system of equations </span>
<span>1a) 2p + 3n = 5.55 </span>
<span>2a) 2p + 4n = 7.00 </span>
<span>Subtract equation 1a) from equation 2a) to get </span>
<span>n = 1.45 ...................... that's the cost of one notebook </span>
<span>~~~~~~~~ </span>
<span>To check, you could go on to figure out p, which turns out to be 0.60 . Put in those values of n and p into the original equations to verify.</span>
Hope this helps! ~Nadia~
Answer:
The y-int is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A) tan(45°) help us to find the height of the tree because it relates our unknown with a known length (the length of the shadow)
B) tan(45°) = x/35.6
C) x = 35.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
B) From definition:
tan(45°) = opposite/adjacent
opposite to angle 45° is x ( the height of the tree), adjacent to angle 45° is the length of the shadow (35.6 ft). Replacing into the equation:
tan(45°) = x/35.6
C) tan(45°) = 1
Then:
1 = x/35.6
35.6 ft = x
