The cost of a bottle of water is (w – 1) cents.
The cost of a bottle of milk is (2w – 11) cents.
A certain number of bottles of water costs $4.80.
The same number of bottles of milk costs $7.80 .
Find the value of w

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

w= 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of water= (w -1)¢

Cost of milk= (2w -11)¢

Let the certain number be x.

x(w -1)¢= 480¢ -----(1)

x(2w -11)¢= 780¢ -----(2)

From (1):

wx -x= 480 -----(3)

From (2):

2wx -11x= 780 -----(4)

(3) ×2:

2wx -2x= 960 -----(5)

(5) -(4):

(2wx -2x) -(2wx -11x)= 960 -780

Expand:

2wx -2x -2wx +11x= 180

9x= 180

Divide both sides by 9:

x= 180 ÷9

x= 20

Substitute x= 20 into (3):

w(20) -20= 480

20w -20= 480

20w= 480 +20

20w= 500

w= 500 ÷20

w= 25

Question:
Is triangle AFD congruent to triangle BEC?

Answers

Answer: is not congruent

To be congruent, it has to be same size and shape. It can face in any directions. Both the shapes have to be equal in all side lengths and equal angles.

Looking at the triangle you can understand that it is not congruent as the triangles have a size difference of being big and small. But if you still desire detailed explanation then here:

There is four rules for a triangle to be congruent. If one of these rule matches then you can say the triangle is congruent.

1. The three sides are equal

2. Two angles are the same and a corresponding side is the same

3. Two sides are equal and the angle between the two sides is equal

4. Two angles are equal and the side between them is equal

There are no angles, so find if all the three sides are equal. Even if one side is not equal, you can say it is not congruent. So if you just measure any side length of the smaller and big triangle, the length is not equal. None of the side lengths in either of the triangle is equal.

Give two systems of equations, each containing two equations, that would be easier to solve by substitution than by elimination. Then give two systems that would be easier to solve with elimination. Finally, explain how you decide whether to use elimination or substitution to solve a system.

I will give brainliest to best answer

AND DON’T ANSWER THEN DELETE FOR POINTS

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When using the substitution method we use the fact that if two expressions y and x are of equal value x=y, then x may replace y or vice versa in another expression without changing the value of the expression.

Solve the systems of equations using the substitution method

{y=2x+4

{y=3x+2

We substitute the y in the top equation with the expression for the second equation:

2x+4            =      3x+2

4−2              =        3x−2

2===             =         x

To determine the y-value, we may proceed by inserting our x-value in any of the equations. We select the first equation:

y= 2x + 4

We plug in x=2 and get

y=  2⋅2+4 = 8

The elimination method requires us to add or subtract the equations in order to eliminate either x or y, often one may not proceed with the addition directly without first multiplying either the first or second equation by some value.

Example:

2x−2y = 8

x+y = 1

We now wish to add the two equations but it will not result in either x or y being eliminated. Therefore we must multiply the second equation by 2 on both sides and get:

2x−2y = 8

2x+2y = 2

Now we attempt to add our system of equations. We commence with the x-terms on the left, and the y-terms thereafter and finally with the numbers on the right side:

(2x+2x)  + (−2y+2y) =  8+2

The y-terms have now been eliminated and we now have an equation with only one variable:

4x = 10

x= 10/4 =2.5

Thereafter, in order to determine the y-value we insert x=2.5 in one of the equations. We select the first:

2⋅2.5−2y     =  8

5−8             = 2y

−3               =2y

−3/2            =y

y                 =-1.5

Answer:

1. No, because a system of linear equations in two variables may have, zero,  or infinietley solutions.

2. true because the answer of a system is the intersect, not where the lines cross a grid.

Please check the formatting when posting.  I'm assuming these are the equations:

y=x^2 - 2

y=−x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can either graph the equations or solve them.  I use graphing - see the attachment.  The lines intersect at (-2, 2) and (1,-1)

1.  Graphing

See attached graph

(-2, 2) and (1,-1) are the intersection points

2.  Solving

y=x^2 - 2  Use y=−x in this equation:

-x = x^2 - 2

0 = x^2 + x - 2

0 = (x+2)(x-1)

x = -2 and +1

(-2, 2) and (1,-1) are the intersection points

What is the value of x? Leave your answer in simplest radical form.

Answers

Answer:

sqrt 52

Step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean thereom

side a - 4

side b - 6

to find the hypotenuse, simply square both sides.

4² + 6²

4 x 4 = 16

6 x 6 = 36

add these two together

you should get 52.

After finding the combined side length, find the inverse operation of squared.

The inverse operation is the square root.

So find the square root of 52.

√52 = 7.21110255

round to the nearest tenth.

the answer should be 7.2

But to keep it in radical form the answer is sqrt 52

Answer:

The value of x is 2√13.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the help of Pythagoras theorem, we will find the value of x.

=> x² = 6² + 4²=> x² = 36 + 16=> x² = 52=> √x² = √52=> x = √52=> x = √2 x 26=> x = √2 x 2 x 13=> x = 2√13Conclusion:

Therefore, the value of x is 2√13.

Step 1: She placed the compass on point B and drew an arc which intersects ray BA at point D and ray BC at point E.
Step 2: Next, she placed the compass on point D and drew an arc on the interior of ZABC.
Step 3: Then, she placed the compass on point C and drew an arc on the interior of ZABC, which intersects the previous arc.
Step 4: She labeled the intersection of the two arcs as point F and drew the ray BF, which represents the angle bisector

Answers

The angles formed by the angle bisector BF are ∠FBA and ∠FBC.

The step in which the mistake was made is step 3; Then, she placed the compass on point C and drew an arc on the interior of ∠ABC which intersects the previous arc.

Reasons:

The steps to draw an angle bisector are;

Place the compass at the vertex of the angle and draw an arc intersecting the the two rays forming the angle at points D and E

Place the compass at point D and draw an interior arc to the given angle

Place the compass at point E and draw a second interior arc intersecting the previous arc

The point of intersection of the two arcs can be labelled F and joined to the vertex of the given angle to complete the angle bisection

Therefore, the step in which the mistake was made is; Step 3 where the compass is placed at point C rather than point E to draw the second arc of the angle bisector

76 is 0.4% of what number? Use pencil and paper. Would you expect the answer to be a lot less than 76. Slightly less than 76, slight greater than 76, or a lot greater than 76? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a lot greater. If you take 0.4% of some number and the answer is 76, you better be starting with something that is very large. The formula will make the solution automatic.

Formula

Let the number be x

0.4% x = 76

0.4% = 0.4/100

0.4 / 100 * x = 76            Multiply both sides of the equation by 100

0.4x = 76*100                Combine the right.

0.4x = 7600                  Divide by 0.4

x = 7600/0.4

x = 19000                       Which is quite a bit larger than 76

Answer:

greater than 76

interior angles?

Answers

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a possibility that this triangle is isosceles. Angles in triangles add up to 180. 102-180=78. Since we are assuming this triangle is isosceles, we can just divide 78 by 2 and get 39 which might be the other two angles. They might both be 39 degrees.

Since triangle angles must add up to 180 degrees, the other angles must add up to 78 degrees. One possible pair could be if you divided 78 in half, which is 39. There could also be tons of more I can provide a list of below:
