Answer:

-9 - 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy multiplied incorrectly it should have been -4*2x, -4*-3

Sylvie forgot to multiply both sides she did -4*2x but forgot to do -4*-3

The correct answer should be...

-3-4(2x-3)

-3 - 8x + 12

-9 - 8x

Answer:

x = 72 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the definition of a tangent function:

tan x = opposite/adjacent

= 154/50

= 3.08

----> x = arctan 3.08 = 72 degrees

Daniel has $100. After he buys 4 pencils and 3 pens, he has $7 left. If each pencil costs $3 more than each pen, is $25 enough t
amm1812

Answer:  Yes, Daniel has enough money to buy 2 pens.

=========================================================

Explanation:

x = cost of one pencil

y = cost of one pen

4x = cost of 4 pencils

3y = cost of 3 pens

4x+3y = cost of 4 pencils and 3 pens

100 - (4x+3y) = amount Daniel has left = 7 dollars

100-(4x+3y) = 7 is one equation we can form

Another equation we can form is x = y+3 because "each pencil costs $3 more than each pen".

Let's plug that into the first equation and solve for y.

100-(4x+3y) = 7

100-(4(y+3)+3y) = 7

100 - (4y+12+3y) = 7

100 - (7y+12) = 7

100 - 7y - 12 = 7

-7y + 88 = 7

-7y = 7-88

-7y = -81

y = -81/(-7)

y = 11.57 is the cost of one pen

2y = 2*11.57 = 23.14 is the cost of two pens.

Since this is less than $25, this means he has enough to buy two pens. This assumes that we either ignore tax, or the tax is already included in the listed prices.

a tiny but horrible alien is standing at the top of the empire state building (which is 443443443 meters tall) and threatening t
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The angle for shooting laser gun should be 89.98°.

The vertical height where a tiny but horrible alien is standing is given as 443443443 meters. The horizontal distance of a men in black agent from building is given in the question as 181818 meters. So, let us assume the angle formed to be theta (θ).

Writing the formula for tan theta, that relates the given height and distance

Now, tan θ = vertical height ÷ horizontal distance

Keep the values in above mentioned equation of theta to find the angle.

tan θ = \frac{443443443}{181818}

Performing division to find the tan theta and subsequently calculate the angle

tan θ = 2438.94

θ = tan⁻¹ 2438.94

Calculating tan inverse to find the value of theta

θ = 89.98°

Therefore, the  angle for shooting laser gun by a men in black agent  should be 89.98°.

Mrs. Johnson’s class sold cookies for $2.50 each and Mr. Smith’s class sold popcorn for $1.50 each. Together, the classes sold 5
sashaice [31]

Answer:

(a) Mrs. Johnson’s class sold 26 cookies,  Mr. Smith’s class sold 27 popcorn.

(b) Mrs. Johnson’s class earned \$65.  Mr. Smith’s class earned \$40.5. Hence, Mrs. Johnson’s class earned more.

(c) Mrs. Johnson’s class earned \$24.5 more.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of cookies Mrs. Johnson’s class sold and y be the number of popcorn Mr. Smith’s class sold.

(a) If Mrs. Johnson’s class sold x cookies for $2.50 each, then they earn $2.50x. If Mr. Smith’s class sold y popcorn for $1.50 each, then they earn $1.50y. In total, $2.50x+$1.50y=$105.50.

Together, the classes sold 53 items, then x+y=53.

You get the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=53\\ \\2.5x+1.5y=105.5\end{array}\right.

Solve it

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=53\\ \\2.5x+1.5y=105.5\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}x=53-y\\ \\2.5(53-y)+1.5y=105.5\end{array}\right.,

132.5-2.5y+1.5y=105.5,\\ \\132.5-105.5=2.5y-1.5y,\\ \\y=27,\\ \\x=53-27=26.

(b) Mrs. Johnson’s class earned \$2.50\cdot 26=\$65.  Mr. Smith’s class earned \$1.50\cdot 27=\$40.5. Hence, Mrs. Johnson’s class earned more.

(c) Mrs. Johnson’s class earned \$65-\$40.5=\$24.5 more.
