J(jeans) = 2s + 4
d(dress pants) = 2.5s - 2
s = shirt
he spent : 2s + 4 + 2.5s - 2 = 4.5s + 2
The fencing line x is the height of a rectangle triangle of base = y, hypothenuse of 9 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
9^2 = x^2 + y^2
x^2 = 81 - y^2
we can see that x is also the height of another rectangle triangle of base = 15 - y, hypothenuse of 12 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
12^2 = x^2 + (15 - y)^2
lets expand:
144 = x^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
substitute x^2 from the first equation in the last:
144 = 81 - y^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
144 = 81 + 225 - 30y
30y = -144 + 81 + 225
y = 5.4 m
substitute in the fence equation:
x^2 = 81 - y^2
x^2 = 81 - 5.4^2
x = 7.2 m that is the length of the fence
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
$27.63 / 2 = $13.82
$13.82 * 0.20 = $2.76
$13.82 + $2.76 = $16.58
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
The GCF of 36, 48, and 72 is 12 so there will be 36 / 12 = 3 stacks of English books, 48 / 12 = 4 stacks of science books and 72 / 12 = 6 stacks of math books for a total of 3 + 4 + 6 = 13 stacks.
