The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall is 21 inches

The dimension of the mirror is given as:

Height = 24\ in

Width = 28\ in

From the center of the mirror to the floor of the wall, the distance is:

Distance =5\frac14\ ft

So, the distance to the top of the mirror will be:

Top = 5\frac 14\ ft + \frac 12 \times Height

Substitute 24 for height

Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ \frac 12 \times 24\ in

Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ 12 \ in

Convert feet to inches

Top = 5\frac 14\times 12\ in+ 12 \ in

Top = 63\ in+ 12 \ in

Top = 75 \ in

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling is the difference between the height of the wall and 75 inches.

So, we have:

Distance = 8\ ft - 75\ in

Convert feet to inches

Distance = 8\times 12\ in - 75\ in

Distance = 96\ in - 75\ in

Distance = 21\ in

Hence, the distance is 21 inches

I have 47 nickels and dimes worth $4.20. How many of each type of coin do I have?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

37 dimes and 10 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = # dimes

let n = # nickels

we can set up a system of equations:

n + d = 47

.05n + .10d = 4.2

if we solve the first equation for 'n' we get:  

n = 47-d

now we can substitute this in for 'n' in the second equation:

.05(47-d) + .10d = 4.2

2.35 - .05d + .10d = 4.2

2.35 + .05d = 4.2

subtract 2.35 from each side to get:

.05d = 1.85

d = 1.85÷.05

d = 37

if d+n = 47 and d=37 then n = 10

Check:

.05(10) + .1(37) should equal 4.2

.50 + 3.7 = 4.2  [It Checks Out]

Cos s=-2/5 and sin t=4/5, s and t are in quadrant II<br> find cos(s+t) and cos(s-t)
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

•cos(s+t) = cos(s)cos(t) - sin(s)sin(t) = (-⅖).(-⅗) - (√21 /5).(⅘) = +6/25 - 4√21 /25 = (6-4√21)/25

•cos(s-t) = cos(s)cos(t) + sin(s)sin(t) = (-⅖).(-⅗) + (√21 /5).(⅘) = +6/25 + 4√21 /25 = (6+4√21)/25

cos(t) = ±√(1 - sin²(t)) → -√(1 - sin²(t)) = -√(1 - (⅘)²) = -⅗

sin(s) = ±√(1 - cos²(s)) → +√(1- cos²(s)) = +√(1 - (-⅖)²) = √21 /5
