It can be deduced that the price of the trick cameras will be $5 and the price of the snakes will be $6.25.

Based on the information given, the equation to solve the question will be:

3x + 4y = 40 ...... i

7x + 8y = 85 ...... ii

Multiply equation i by 7

Multiply equation ii by 3

21x + 28y = 280

21x + 24y = 255

Subtract the equations

4y = 25

y = 25/4 = 6.25

Since 3x + 4y = 40

3x + 4(6.25) = 40

3x + 25 = 40

3x = 40 - 25.

3x = 15

x = 15/3 = 5

Therefore, the price of the trick cameras will be $5 and the price of the snakes will be $6.25.

Find the missing length.
grin007 [14]

Answer:

  D.  25

Step-by-step explanation:

The left end of the baseline has measure (x-16). In this geometry all of the right triangles are similar, so the short-to-long side ratios are proportional:

  (x -16)/12 = 12/16

  x -16 = 9 . . . . . . . multiply by 12

  x = 25 . . . . . . . . . add 16

The unknown length x is 25.

Aidan is participating in an 8 mile walk for his favorite charity. The organizers used a coordinate grid to plot the course. The
Travka [436]

Answer:

Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

Step-by-step explanation:

The locations of the starting point, water station and ending point are (3, 1), (3, 7) and (3, 9), all expressed in miles. First we determine the distances between starting and ending points and between starting point and water station by the Pythagorean Theorem:

From starting point to ending point:

D = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(9-1)^{2}} (Eq. 1)

D = 8\,mi

From starting point to water station:

d = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(7-1)^{2}} (Eq. 2)

d = 6\,mi

The distance between the water station and the ending point is:

s = D-d (Eq. 3)

s = 8\,mi-6\,mi

s = 2\,mi

Hence, Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

How many distinct triangles can be formed for which m∠A = 75°, a = 2, and b = 3?
antiseptic1488 [7]
We can use the Sine Law:a / sin A = b / sin B2 / sin 75° = 3 / sin B2 / 0.966 = 3 / sin B  ( after that we will cross multiply )
2 sin B = 3 · 0.9662 sin B = 2.898sin B = 2.898 : 2sin B = 1.499 > 1  ( it is not possible )Answer:  A ) No triangles can be formed.
