Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

No. of boys = 2x

No. of girls = 3x

2x + 3x = 135

5x = 135

x = 135/5

x = 27

No. of boys = 2x = 2(27) = 54

Ugo [173]

Substitute 50 loaves into the given equation

y= cost to make 50 loaves

y= 0.80x + 100
y= 0.80(50) + 100
multiply first, then add
y= 40 + 100
y= $140 cost to make 50 loaves

A triangle has two constant sides of length 5 feet and 7 feet. The angle between these two sides is increasing at a rate of 0.9

o-na [289]

Answer: $12.74 ft^2/s$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two sides of triangle of sides 5 ft and 7 ft

and angle between them is increasing at a rate of 0.9 radians per second

let $\theta$ is the angle between them thus

Area of triangle when two sides and angle between them is given

$A=\frac{ab\sin C}{2}$

$A=\frac{5\times 7\times \sin \theta }{2}$

Differentiate w.r.t time

$\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{35\cos theta }{2}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} \theta }{\mathrm{d} t}$

at $\theta =\frac{\pi }{5}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{35\times cos(\frac{\pi }{5})}{2}\times 0.9$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=12.74 ft^2/s$
