Okay, so Sang is standing 20 yards away from one corner, and Jazmin is standing 99 yards away from the same corner. If this is a rectangle (I like visuals, so I'll use them to explain), then:
99ft
A ------------------------- B
| |
20 ft | |
| |
C -------------------------- D
The question is asking you to solve for the diagonal line between points C and B. If you imagine a line there, you actually have the rectangle split into two triangles. So if you have triangle ABC, side CB would be the longest line, or the hypotenuse. That means you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the problem.
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
99^2 + 20^2 = C^2
9,801 + 400 = C^2
10,201 = C^2
Now you solve for the square root of 10,201 to get C.
sqr (10,201) = C
C = 101 yards
Well, there are
amounts of white flower and 6 cups of wheat flower.
So the total flower is
Given that
is the total, the equation you would use is:
The constraints are as follows:
y can only be
6
And if y=0, x would have to be -6 (which is impossible)
Answer:
The number of large size candles sells are 12 and the number of small size candles are 5 .
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
Sia sells large candles for $3 each and small candles for $2 each.
She sold 17 candles for $46.00.
Let us assume that the large size candle sells are x .
Let us assume that the small size candle sells are y.
Equation becomes
x + y = 17
3x + 2y = 46
Multiply x + y = 17 by 3 and subtracted from 3x + 2y = 46 .
3x - 3x + 2y - 3y = 46 - 51
-y = - 5
y = 5
Put in the equation x + y = 17 .
x + 5 = 17
x = 17 - 5
x = 12
Therefore the number of large size candles sells are 12 and the number of small size candles are 5 .
