Answer:

  48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the number of sweets Dora has to start with. Then 2d is the number Harini had. After they each ate 18, the ratio of their numbers is ...

  (2d -18)/(d -18) = 5/1

  2d -18 = 5(d -18) . . . . . multiply by d-18

  72 = 3d . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2d-90

  24 = d . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  2d = 48

Harini started with 48 sweets.

Write the following polar equation in Cartesian coordinates:
maks197457 [2]
Remember that transformation between Cartesian and polar system are:
x=r*cos(α)
y=r*sin(α)
From this we can conclude that:
r=√(x^2 + y^2)

Using trigonometry transformations we can write:
r=sin(2α) = 2sin(α)cos(α)
Now we can multiply both sides with r^2:
r^3 = 2(r*sin(α))*(r*cos(α))

Now using some replacements we can write:
(x^2 + y^2)^(3/2) = 2*x*y

kvasek [131]

Answer:

18=6b, b=3

Because Mary has 6 times as much as Carlos does, we put the x with 6. 18 is the number that 6x equals. 6*3=18
