Stanley's unit rate is 30 miles per gallon ( represented by:

)
Carla's unit rate is 36 miles per gallon ( represented by:

)
Carla's unit rate is higher than Stanley's. (mention the slope being steeper on the graph, because I have the same vacation homework.)
The image of the question is attached below.
Given:
m∠DAC = 20° and m∠BCA = 30°
m∠ABC = 90° and m∠CDA = 90°
To find:
The value of x and y.
Solution:
In right triangle ABC,
m∠BAC = x° + 20°
Sum of the interior angles of a triangle = 180°
m∠BAC +m∠ABC + m∠BCA = 180°
x° + 20° + 90° + 30° = 180°
x° + 140° = 180°
Subtract 140° from both sides.
x° + 140° - 140° = 180° - 140°
x° = 40°
In right triangle ADC,
m∠ACD = y° + 30°
Sum of the interior angles of a triangle = 180°
m∠ACD +m∠CDA + m∠DAC = 180°
y° + 30° + 90° + 20° = 180°
y° + 140° = 180°
Subtract 140° from both sides.
y° + 140° - 140° = 180° - 140°
y° = 40°
The value of x is 40 and y is 40.
He can divide these future expenses by separating future expenses. there will be 100 dollars left.
X=one type that cost 9
y=one type that cost 8
total books=type1+type2
total books=13
x+y=13
the total cost=cost of each added together
cost of each=number of books times cost per book
total cost=108
9x+8y=108
we have
x+y=13
9x+8y=108
solve for x and y
multiply first equation by -8 and add to first equation
-8x-8y=-104
<u>9x+8y=108 +</u>
x+0y=4
x=4
subsitute
x+y=13
4+y=13
minus 4
y=9
4 of the $9
9 of the $8
thats how to solve
A^2 + b^2 = c^2...a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
20^2 + 21^2 = c^2
400 + 441 = c^2
841 = c^2
sqrt 841 = c
29 = c <== third straw will be 29 cm
