3 less than 16 divided by a number s is 5

1 answer:

8 0

3-16/a= 5
subtract 3-16
-13/a=5
multiply both sides by a
-13=5a
flip the equation
5a= -13
divide both sides by 5
a= -2.6

check the equation
3-16/-2.6=5
-13/-2.6=5
5=5

The price of one sack of rice is Rs. 1,850.if wages charge Rs. 70 was added, find it price.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The total price of the Rice sack is Rs 1920.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of 1 sack of rice = Rs. 1,850

Wages Charge = Rs. 70

Now, the total price = Price of the Rice + Wages Charge

= Rs. 1,850 + Rs. 70

= Rs. 1920

or, the total price = Rs. 1920

Hence, the total price of the Rice sack is Rs 1920.

Please help! what is the polar equation r = -5 theta in parametric form? thank you!

Rudiy27

Use these equations when converting polar equations to parametric equations:

$x=r\cos\theta$

$y=r\sin\theta$

We know that $r=5\theta$ , so substitute that into both equations for x and y.

$x=5\theta\cos\theta$

$y=5\theta\sin\theta$

Now, replace $\theta$ with any variable that you want to represent the parametric equations in. I'll use the standard variable, $t$

$x=5t\cos t$

$y=5t\sin t$

Thus, $r=5\theta$ represented in parametric form is:

$(x,y)=(5t\cos t, 5t \sin t)$

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
