A store sells hardcover books for $8 and paperback books for $5. You buy 7 books, represented by the equation x + y = 7, where x is the number of hardcover books and y is the number of paperback books. The equation 8x + 5y = 41 represents the total cost. How many of each type of book did you buy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Total number of Hardcover books is TWO while the number of Paperback books is FIVE

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of hardcover book = x

No. of paperback book = y

Cost of one hardcover book = $8

Cost of one paperback book = $5 We are given that:

x+y=7 (Equation 1)

8x+5y=41 (Equation 2)

We can find out value of x and y by solving both equations simultaneously.

Hence, Total number of Hardcover books is TWO while the number of Paperback books is FIVE

Calculate the volume of cuboids with the following dimensions
length= 1.2 m, breadth= 1 m, height= 150 cm

Answers

Answer:

1.8 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We just have to multiply the lenghts, but careful: the height is in cm. 100 cm = 1 m. Therefore 150cm = 1,5m.

V = 1.2 m * 1m * 1.5m = 1.8 m^3

a.) The SAS Triangle Congruence Postulate states that if if a pair of corresponding sides, a pair of corresponding angles, and another pair of corresponding sides in two triangles are congruent, then the two triangles are congruent. Therefore, we can see that in both triangles, we are only shown a corresponding, congruent right angle. We need two pairs of sides with the corresponding right angles to prove that the triangles are congruent via SAS. We would need to know the length of side VX, and it’s corresponding side length, XV. We would also need to know the side lengths of WV and it’s corresponding side length, XK. We would then need some sort of symbol to represent a congruent relationship if the side lengths are congruent. Then, we would have two pairs of corresponding, congruent sides, and a pair of corresponding, congruent angles. Then, we would have a Side-Angle-Side.

b.) We are given two triangles with a pair of corresponding, congruent sides. We need to have a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, another pair of corresponding, congruent sides to follow SAS. Therefore, we would need to know the angle measures of angles UVW and KVM. We know that they are vertical angles, so they are indeed congruent. Now, we would need to know the side lengths of sides WV and VM. If those sides are congruent, then we have a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, and another pair of corresponding, congruent sides, making SAS.

c.) The Angle Side Angle Postulate states that if there is a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, and another pair of corresponding, congruent angles in two triangles, then the two triangles are congruent. We have a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, but we need another pair of congruent, corresponding angles. Therefore, we would need to know the angle measures of angles MLK and STU. Then we would have a a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, and another pair of corresponding, congruent angles.

Given triangle DEF where ∠D = (7b +1)∘, ∠E = (2b + 1)∘, and ∠F = ( b + 8)∘. What is the measure of ∠E?

Answers

Answer: 35 (choice C)

=============================================

Explanation:

For any triangle, the three interior angles always add to 180.

D+E+F = 180

(7b+1) + (2b+1) + (b+8) = 180

(7b+2b+b) + (1+1+8) = 180

10b+10 = 180

10b = 180-10

10b = 170

b = 170/10

b = 17

Use this value of b to find the three angle measures

D = 7b+1 = 7*17+1 = 119+1 = 120E = 2b+1 = 2*17+1 = 34+1 = 35 degreesF = b+8 = 17+8 = 25

As a check,

D+E+F = 120+35+25 = 120+60 = 180

which helps confirm the correct answers.

Find the equation of the straight line which makes a negative intercept of 4 units on the x - axis and passes through the point (2‚ 3).

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

It passes through the points (-4, 0) and (2,3) so

the slope (m) = (3-0)/(2-(-4)) = 3/2 = 1/2.

Using the point slope form of a straight line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1):

y - 3 = 1/2(x - 2)

y = 1/2x - 1 + 3

y = 1/2x + 2 is the required equation.

How many match sticks will be in the 8th picture?

Answers

Hello again. :)

Answer: 33 match sticks

From the first picture, we are given 5 match sticks.

From the second picture, we are given 9 match sticks. The difference between the match sticks is 4.

From the third picture, we are given 13 match sticks. The difference between the match sticks is again 4.

If each image increases the number of match sticks by 4, then the fourth image must have (13 + 4) = 17 match sticks.
The fifth image must have (17 + 4) = 21 match sticks.
The sixth image must have (21 + 4) = 25 match sticks.
The seventh image must have (25 + 4) = 29 match sticks.
And the eighth image must have (29 + 4) = 33 match sticks

Ben participated in a race. During the first half of the race, he walked 3 miles and ran at a rate of 5 miles per hour for x hours. During the second half of the race, he walked for 2 miles and ran at a rate of 5.5 miles per hour for x hours. What equation could you write to solve for the number of hours Ben ran during each half of the race? Let y represent the number of miles in half the race. Write two equations, one for the first half of the race and one for the second half. How could you transform these two equations to be the same as the original equation you wrote to solve for x? What do you think this means about solving for the variables in a situation represented by two equations?

Answers

Answer:

During the first half of the race, he walked 3 miles and ran at a rate of 5 miles per hour for x hours.y = 5x + 3

During the second half of the race, he walked for 2 miles and ran at a rate of 5.5 miles per hour for x hours. y = 5.5x + 2

Then using both equations will be:

y = 5x + 3

y = 5.5x + 2

Subtract the equations

0.5x = 1

x = 1/0.5 = 2

Therefore, the value of y will be:

y = 5x + 3 = 5(2) + 3 = 13
