Karina uses the system of equations below to compare the monthly utility costs in July and December for electricity, x, and natu

ral gas, y. 750x + 17y = 141.61 300x + 30y = 75.90 Karina solves the system using linear combination and arrives at the equation 116y = 96.28. She then solves this equation for y. Which statement explains Karina’s solution? The cost of natural gas is $0.17 per unit. The cost of natural gas is $0.20 per unit. The cost of natural gas is $0.72 per unit. The cost of natural gas is $0.83 per unit.

The correct statement is The cost of natural gas is $0.83 per unit.

The equations representing her utility costs in July and December are known as simultaneous equations. These equations have to be solved jointly in order to determine the cost of electricity and natural gas.

Given the equation gotten by Karina: 116y = 96.28

Where y represent the cost of natural gas

In order to determine the value of y, divide both sides of the equation by 116

y = 96.28 / 116

y = $0.83

Eddi Din [679]
The surveyor selects the twentieth student who enters the building. The student do not enter the building to be surveyed but for other reasons and the researcher take advantage of that and selects them. This is a form of continence sampling.
 The researcher selects every twentieth student and not any other. Therefore, the sampling is systematic in nature.
Finally, students selected to participate in the survey are free to choose if to participate in he survey or not. Therefore, it is voluntary kind of sampling.

Therefore, the applicable sampling methods are convenience, systematic, and voluntary.

What is the value of x in a 30-60-90 triangle with a hypotenuse of x+12 and a longer side of x?
enot [183]
In a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle the side opposite the hypotenuse is 1/2 the hypotenuse and which will be the shorter side. Read this over a couple of times till you realize that (x + 12)/2 is the shortest side.

[(x + 12) / 2]^2 + x^2 = (x + 12)^2 subtract [(x + 12)/2]^2 from both sides.

x^2 = (x +12)^2 - [ (x +12)/2]^2
x^2 = (x + 12)^2  [ 1 - (1/2)^2] You were given this as a question in school? It seems awfully hard.
x^2 = (x + 12)^2 [3/4] 
4x^2 = 3*(x^2 + 24x + 144)
4x^2 = 3x^2 + 72x + 432
x^2 - 72x - 432 = 0 This is a quadratic, do you know what they are?
The solution to this comes to x = 77.56

I don't think I made a mistake, but it is sure possible.Check the numbers and my method.
