Answer:

(x,y) = (5.8,-0.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.)  x + 2y = 4.2 - 2y = 5

2.) { x + 2y =5

    { 4.2 - 2y = 5

3.) { x + 2y = 5

    { y = -0.4

4.) x + 2x ( -4.0 ) = 5

5.) x= 5.8 ( a possible solution )

6.) ( x , y ) = ( 5.8 , -0.4 )  check to the solution

7.)  5.8 + 2 x ( -0.4 ) = 4.2 - 2 x ( -0.4 ) = 5

8.) 5 =5 =5

An aquarium has a base in the shape of a trapezoid. The base is 90 cm long at the front, 60 cm long at the back, and 30 cm wide
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate for the area of the trapezoid (the formula is (base + base / 2) x height):

60 cm + 90 cm = 150 cm

150 cm / 2 = 75 cm

75 cm x 30 cm = 2250 cm²

Now 1 cm² = 1 mL and 1000 mL = 1 L

2250 cm² = 2250 mL

2250 mL = 2.25 L

A regular decagon has sides that are 8 cm long. What is the area of the figure? Round to the nearest whole number.
blsea [12.9K]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the regular decagon has sides that are 8 cm long.

We need to determine the area of the regular decagon.

<u>Area of the regular decagon:</u>

The area of the regular decagon can be determined using the formula,

A=\frac{s^{2} n}{4 \tan \left(\frac{180}{n}\right)}

where s is the length of the side and n is the number of sides.

Substituting s = 8 and n = 10, we get;

A=\frac{8^{2} \times 10}{4 \tan \left(\frac{180}{10}\right)}

Simplifying, we get;

A=\frac{64 \times 10}{4 (\tan \ 18)}

A=\frac{640}{4 (0.325)}

A=\frac{640}{1.3}

A=642.3

Rounding off to the nearest whole number, we get;

A=642 \ cm^2

Thus, the area of the regular decagon is 642 cm²

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Helena needs 3.5 cups of flour per loaf of bread and 2.5 cups of flour per batch of muffins. She also needs 0.75 cup of sugar pe
Arlecino [84]
From the given data, we can generate two equations with two unknowns. 

We let x = number of loaves of bread
            y = number of batches of muffins

For the equation of the flour requirement:
17 = 3.5x + 2.5y

<span>For the equation of the sugar requirement:
</span>4.5 = 0.75x + 0.75y

We evaluate the solutions by manipulating one of the equations into terms of the other. We use the first equation.We write x in terms of y.

x = (4.5/0.75) - y

Substitute the third equation to the second equation.

17 = (3.5((4.5/0.75)-y)) + 2.5y

Evaluating y and x, we have,

y = 4 and x = 2

Thus, from the amounts she has in hand, she can make 4 loaves of bread and 2 batches of muffins.

Adam sells medical magazine and books. the table shows price for both Magazine £8
kumpel [21]

Adam earned a total of £265.10 last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Adam earns a basic pay of £200 each week. He earns 10% of the magazine price for each sold  and 15% of the book price for each sold. Each magazine costs £8 and each book costs £15. He sells 42 magazines and 14 books.

Money earned for selling a magazine = 10% × £8 = 0.10 × £8 = £0.80,

Money earned for selling a book = 15% × £15 = 0.15 × £15 = £2.25,

Money earned for selling 42 magazines = 42 × £0.80 = £33.60,

Money earned for selling 14 books = 14 × £2.25 = £31.50,

Money earned for selling 42 magazines and 14 books = £33.60 + £31.50 =  £65.10.

Step 2; Now we have to calculate his last week's salary which is his weekly pay and his earnings from selling magazines and books. We found that he earned £31.50 from selling books and magazines. His weekly salary is £200.

Last week's salary =  £200 +  £65.10 = £265.10.
