The bottom answer is correct. I had some trouble with this so I had to find x and y in separate parts.
TO FIND X
notice that the top triangle and bottom triangles are similar, meaning if you multiple all three sides of one by a specific number, it becomes the same size as the bottom triangle.
17 x n = 8, therefore n=8/17
8 x n = X, therefore X=64/17
For some reason, this does not give a correct value for Y, so I had to use trig
TO FIND Y
Notice that the angle DAB is the same as DBC (lets call this angle Ø)
Using trig rule, we know that the cos of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuses.
We can now form some equations:
cosØ = 15/17 (from the top triangle)
cosØ = 8/Y (from bottom triangle)
Now we know that Y=(8x17)/15 = 136/15
X=64/15 Y=136/15
The independent variable is the number of sweatshirts sold so it is answer A.
(Money raised is the dependent variable because it depends on the number of sweatshirts sold.)
Answer:
34 degrees and 131 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles always add up to 90 degrees
90 - 56 = 34 degrees (1)
180 - 49 = 131 degrees (2)
Answer:
idk, but depending on that juice i bet they are drunker then hail
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: -3(x+2y=3)
Step 2: -3x-6y=-9
Step 3: 3x cancels out with -3x
Step 4: add 2y and -2y, and add 3 and 5
Step 5: the answer is NO SOLUTION or INFINITE SOLUTION
