Answer:

2a + 4b = 44

a+b=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Call a the number of chickens, b the number of horses

We have: 2a + 4b = 44

                a + b = 15

               => 2(a+b) = 30

               <=> (2a + 4b) - (2a + 2b) = 14

                     2b = 14

                  => b = 7

                  => a = 8

So 8 chickens, 7 cows.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]
Draw a triangle with shortest side on the ground (horiz.).  The length of this side is 80 feet.  Two angles touch the ground:  a right angle, and the 70 degree angle.
 
Then the height of the building is the 2nd shortest side.

The tangent function is the appropriate one to use here:
                       opp          h
tan 70 deg = -------- = ----------
                        adj        80 ft
                                                                h
Since tan 70 deg  = 2.75,          2.75 = -------
                                                              80 ft

so h = building height = (80 ft)(2.75) = 219.8 ft

The length of an arc of a circle is 7.34 units, and the measure of the corresponding central angle is 81 degrees. What is the ap
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

A.  5.19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

\textsf{Arc length}=2 \pi r\left(\dfrac{\theta}{360^{\circ}}\right) \quad \textsf{(where r is the radius and}\:\theta\:{\textsf{is the angle)}

Given:

  • \theta = 81°
  • Arc length = 7.34 units

Substituting given values into the equation and solving for r:

\implies 7.34=2 \pi r\left(\dfrac{81^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}\right)

\implies 7.34=r\left(\dfrac{18 \pi}{40}\right)

\implies 7.34 \cdot 40=18 \pi r

\implies 293.6=18 \pi r

\implies r=\dfrac{293.6}{18 \pi}

\implies r=5.19 \sf \: units \:(2\:dp)
