oscar bought some markers notebooks and packs of sticky notes for his office he bought the same number of markers as notebooks h

s2008m [1.1K]

The number of each kind of office supply oscar bought is = markers= (43.2 - 4.2y)/3 notebooks = (43.2-3x)/4.2, sticky notes = [43.2 - 4.2y)/3 + (43.2-3x)/4.2] + 3.

<h3>Calculation of total office supply</h3>

The number of markers he bought = X

The number of notebooks he bought= y

The number of sticky notes he bought= z= 3 + X+y

The amount he paid for markers = $1.05*X

The amount he paid for notebooks = $2.25*y

The amount he paid for sticky notes= $1.95 (3 + X+y)

The total amount he paid is = $49.05

That is;

$49.05 = $1.05x + $2.25y + $1.95 (3 + X+y)

$49.05 = $1.05x + $2.25y + $5.85 + $1.95x + $1.95y

$49.05 - $5.85 = 3x + 4.2y

$43.2 = 3x + 4.2y

Make X the subject of formula,

3x = 43.2 - 4.2y

X = (43.2 - 4.2y)/3

y= (43.2-3x)/4.2

z = [43.2 - 4.2y)/3 + (43.2-3x)/4.2] + 3

Write a proportion you could use to convert 2.5 gallons to quarts.

marusya05 [52]

We know there are 4 quarts in a gallon, so how many quarts in 2.5 gallons anyway?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
quarts&gallons\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
4&1\\
x&2.5
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{4}{x}=\cfrac{1}{2.5}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2.5}{1}=x$

If a = 7 and b = 11, what is the measure of ∠B? (round to the nearest tenth of a degree)

Naddik [55]

Answer:

57.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is a triangle

a is adjacent is ∠B

b is opposite of ∠B

Use the inverse tangent equation: $tan^{-1} (11/7)$

This equals to 57.52880771
