Answer:

x = $1.5, y = $2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 6y = 24

3x + 2y = 10

Solve for y

2y = 10 - 3x

y = 5 - 3/2x

Plug y into first equation

5x + 6y = 24

5x + 30 - 9x = 24

-4x = -6

x = $1.5

y = $2.75

) a rectangular box has length 12 inches, width 20 inches, and a height of 7 inches. find the angle between the diagonal of the
nlexa [21]

We assume the base is 12 in × 20 in, so its diagonal has length

... √(12² +20²) = √(144 +400) = √544 = 4√34 . . . inches

Then the tangent of the angle of interest is the ratio of the box height to the base diagonal:

... tan(α) = (7 in)/(4√34 in) ≈ 0.300123

The angle will be the arctangent of this value,

... α = arctan(7/√544) ≈ 0.291569 radians

What is the answer to <br> 3/4 of 200
r-ruslan [8.4K]
3/4 = 0.75 or 75%. So you need to find 75% of 200... Simply multiply 0.75 or 3/4 by 200 and you will get your answer... (0.75)(200) = 150....

You could also realize with this problem that 3/4 of 200 is 150 because 50 goes into 200 4 times. 50 = 1/4, 100 = 2/4 = 1/2, 150 = 3/4 & 200 = 4/4 = 1.

Suppose P( A) = 0.60, P( B) = 0.85, and A and B are independent. The probability of the complement of the event ( A and B) is: a
diamong [38]

Answer: a. 0.4 × 0.15 = 0.060

Step-by-step explanation: Probability of the complement of an event is the one that is not part of the event.

For P(A):

P(A') = 1 - 0.6

P(A') = 0.4

For P(B):

P(B') = 1 - 0.85

P(B') = 0.15

To determine probability of A' and B':

P(A' and B') = P(A')*P(B')

P(A' and B') = 0.4*0.15

P(A' and B') = 0.06

<u>Probability of the complement of the event is 0.060</u>
