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

The Third Side Is Called The base if an isosceles triangle has perimeter 345 cm and base length 85 cm what is the length of each
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Length of each leg = 130 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there is an isosceles triangle which has perimeter 345 cm.

Base length =85 cm.

Since other two sides are equal, let the equal size = x

Perimeter = sum of all 3 sides of a triangle

= 85+x+x = 85+2x

But perimeter = 345 (given)

So equate x term perimeter with actual

85+2x = 345

Subtract 85

2x = 260

Divide by 2

x =130 cm.

Hence answer is 130 cm.

Recall that Rn denotes the right-endpoint approximation using n rectangles, Ln denotes the left-endpoint approximation using n r
pogonyaev

Answer:

R_5=1.12

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to calculate the right-endpoint approximation (the right Riemann sum) for the function:

f(x)=x^2+x

On the interval [-1, 1] using five equal rectangles.

Find the width of each rectangle:

\displaystyle \Delta x=\frac{1-(-1)}{5}=\frac{2}{5}

List the <em>x-</em>coordinates starting with -1 and ending with 1 with increments of 2/5:

-1, -3/5, -1/5, 1/5, 3/5, 1.

Since we are find the right-hand approximation, we use the five coordinates on the right.

Evaluate the function for each value. This is shown in the table below.

Each area of each rectangle is its area (the <em>y-</em>value) times its width, which is a constant 2/5. Hence, the approximation for the area under the curve of the function <em>f(x)</em> over the interval [-1, 1] using five equal rectangles is:

\displaystyle R_5=\frac{2}{5}\left(-0.24+-0.16+0.24+0.96+2)= 1.12

The length of 2 sides of a triangle are 12 inches and 4 inches. Which is the third side?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Let x = the third side

 

In a triangle, the sum of any 2 sides must be larger than the third side.

I believe this is called the triangle inequality theorem.

 

We can construct 3 inequalities to obtain the range of values for the third side.

 

  (Inequality #1)   12 + 4 > x

                                  16 > x

 

  (Inequality#2)    12 + x > 4

                                    x > -8   (we can discard this ... we know all sides will be positive)

 

  (Inequality #3)   4 + x > 12

                                   x > 8

 

So when we combine these together,  

 

   8 < x < 16

 

X (the third side) must be a number between 8 and 16. but not including 8 and 16

How do you multiply mixed numbers with fractions
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You first turn the mixed number into an improper fraction by mutliplying the denominator by the whole number then adding the numerator to the product. Make sure to keep the denominator the same and just put the sum as the numerator. Then, you multiply the fractions and simplify your answer! Hope this helped!
