Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

In this graph, the two lines only intersect once, meaning there is only one solution. If they intersect twice, then there are two solutions. If the two lines are parallel, there are no solutions. If the lines are the same, there are an infinite amount of solutions.

Calle had five times as many stickers as sara did and twice as many as juniper. Juniper had 25 stickers. How many stickers did t

n200080 [17]

Calle: has twice as many as Juniper so = 2*25 = 50

she also has 5 times as many as sara so if she has 50, you divide 50/5 = 10

Calle has 50 stickers, Sara has 10 and Juniper has 25.

So all together they have 85 stickers.

The principal of a high school spent 1700 for X desk each and Y chairs at $25 each if he had bought half the number of desk in t

KatRina [158]

Answer:

25X + 25Y = 1700

25X + 100Y = 3200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the principal of a high school spent $1700 for X desk and Y chairs at $25 each. Then, the equation will be

25X + 25Y = 1700 ....... (1)

If he had bought half the number of desk in twice the number of chairs he would have spent 1600. That is

25(X/2) + 25(2Y) = 1600

25X/2 + 50Y = 1600

Find the LCM and cross multiply

25X + 100Y = 3200 ........(2)

The height of a wooden pole, h, is equal to 15 feet. Ataut wire is stretched from a point on the ground to the top of the pole.

Taya2010 [7]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

The height of a wooden pole, h, is equal to 15 feet. A taut wire is stretched from a point on the ground to the top of the pole. The distance from the base of the pole to this point on the ground, b. is equal to 8 feet. What is the length of the wire?

Answer:

Length of wire = 17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The height of the wooden pole is, $h=15\ ft$

The distance from the base of the pole to this point on the ground is, $b=8\ ft$

Let the length of the wire be 'l'.

Now, consider the triangle formed by the pole, the base, and the wire. The length of the wire is the slant length and hence the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can find the hypotenuse.

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(height)^2+(base)^2\\l^2=h^2+b^2$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'l'. This gives,

$l^2=15^2+8^2\\\\l^2=225+64\\\\l^2=289\\\\l=\sqrt{289}\\\\l=\pm17$

As length can never be negative, we ignore the negative result.

Therefore, the length of the wire is 17 feet.

If Owen and Eliza had a combined taxable income of $68,200 and filed their federal income tax return with the Married Filing Joi

tangare [24]

Answer:

9425

D

Step-by-step explanation:

They are in the third tax bracket down. That means that their joint income is over 67900 but less than 137050.

The base rate is 9350. But they are 68200 - 67900 = 300 over the minimum.

So 25% of that 300 is also to be paid to the government 25/100 * 300 = 75 dollars

Now they must pay 9350 + 75 = 9425
