Answer:

7 bottles of paint and 15 canvases

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm letting x stand for the number of bottles of paint and y stand for the number of canvases

1.29x+1.89y=37.38

and y=x+8

Since the y value is isolated I can just substitute the right side of the y= equation into the original like so

1.29x+1.89(x+8)=37.38

I then distributed the 1.89 to each of the terms in the parentheses

1.29x+1.89x+15.12=37.38

I then combined like terms to get

3.18x+15.12=37.38

Then you subtract 15.12 from both sides to get

3.18x=22.26

and last we divide both sides by 3.18 to get

x=7

Now that we have x, we still need to solve for y, so I take the original equation y=x+8 and substitute in the value we solved for x to get

y=7+8

y=15

Don't forget the labels you gave each variable earlier in the problem when answering!

What comes next in the following series?
allochka39001 [22]

The next number in the series is 30.

<h3>What is series?</h3>

It should be noted that series simply means the operation of adding values together in a data set.

In this case, it can be seen that the numbers are interchangeable between 30 and 31.

In this case, since 31 was the last number, the next number will be 30.

Help with trigonometry​
diamong [38]

Answer:

cos ∠CBD = - 4√41 / 41

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = 4      ΔABC = (4 x AC) / 2 = 10

AC = 5

BC = √5² + 4² = √41

cos ∠CBD = cos (180° - ∠CBA) = cos 180° cos ∠CBA + sin 180° sin ∠CBA

(cos 180° = - 1          sin 180° = 0       cos ∠CBA = 4 / √41 )

cos ∠CBD = (-1) x cos  ∠CBA = - 4 / √41 = - 4√41 / 41
