Two friends go to a Mexican restaurant for lunch. One friend orders 1 soft taco and
3 burritos and his bill was $8.75. The other friend's bill was $10.00 and he ordered 4
soft tacos and 2 burritos. What is the cost of a taco and what is the cost of a
burrito?
The cost of a taco is:
The cost of a burrito is:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

cost of a taco: $1.25

cost of a burrito: $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a taco be $t and the cost of a burrito be $b.

t +3b= 8.75 -----(1)

4t +2b= 10

Divide both sides by 2:

2t +b= 5

Making b the subject of formula:

b= 5 -2t -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

t +3(5 -2t)= 8.75

Expand:

t +3(5) +3(-2t)= 8.75

t +15 -6t= 8.75

t -6t= 8.75 -15

-5t= -6.25

t= -6.25 ÷(-5)

t= 1.25

Substitute t= 1.25 into (2):

b= 5 -2(1.25)

b= 5 -2.5

b= 2.50

Thus, the cost of a taco is $1.25 and the cost of a burrito is $2.50.

Find the area of a quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = 3 cm, BC = 4 cm, CD = 4 cm, DA = 5 cm and AC = 5 cm.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]6+2\sqrt{21}\:\mathrm{cm^2}\approx 15.17\:\mathrm{cm^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadrilateral ABCD consists of two triangles. By adding the area of the two triangles, we get the area of the entire quadrilateral.

Vertices A, B, and C form a right triangle with legs [tex]AB=3[/tex], [tex]BC=4[/tex], and [tex]AC=5[/tex]. The two legs, 3 and 4, represent the triangle's height and base, respectively.

The area of a triangle with base [tex]b[/tex] and height [tex]h[/tex] is given by [tex]A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]. Therefore, the area of this right triangle is:

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 3\cdot 4=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 12=6\:\mathrm{cm^2}[/tex]

The other triangle is a bit trickier. Triangle [tex]\triangle ADC[/tex] is an isosceles triangles with sides 5, 5, and 4. To find its area, we can use Heron's Formula, given by:

[tex]A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex], where [tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex], and [tex]c[/tex] are three sides of the triangle and [tex]s[/tex] is the semi-perimeter ([tex]s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}[/tex]).

The semi-perimeter, [tex]s[/tex], is:

[tex]s=\frac{5+5+4}{2}=\frac{14}{2}=7[/tex]

Therefore, the area of the isosceles triangle is:

[tex]A=\sqrt{7(7-5)(7-5)(7-4)},\\A=\sqrt{7\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3},\\A=\sqrt{84}, \\A=2\sqrt{21}\:\mathrm{cm^2}[/tex]

Thus, the area of the quadrilateral is:

[tex]6\:\mathrm{cm^2}+2\sqrt{21}\:\mathrm{cm^2}=\boxed{6+2\sqrt{21}\:\mathrm{cm^2}}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5*3000 = 1200 seniors

then

3000 - 1200 = 1800 students not seniors

therefore

4/5* 1200 = 960 do not like rock climbing

and

9/10** 1800 = 1620 also do not like it:

"how many students are in favor of this idea?"

Problem 6

Theta = 210 is between 180 and 270, which places the angle in quadrant Q3. This is in the southwest corner. In Q3, we have sine and cosine negative. They divide to make tangent positive

tan = sin/cos = negative/negative = positive

So tangent is positive in Q3

Answer: Choice C) tangent

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

Problem 7

Cosine is an even function which means cos(-x) = cos(x) for all real numbers x.

So,

cos(170) = cos(-170)

Then we'll find a coterminal angle of -170 which involves adding on 360

-170+360 = 190

The angles -170 and 190 point in the exact same direction

This then means cos(170) = cos(-170) = cos(190)

Or in short, cos(170) = cos(190)

Answer: Choice A)  cos(190)

First find the total of the entire table.

f(x) = (x - 5) (2x - 7) (7x - 3) has zeros at x = -3.5, x = 3/7, and x = 5.

what is the sign of f on the interval 3/7 < x < 5 ?

1. f is always positive on the interval.
2. f is always negative on the interval.
3. f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval.

Answers

The function f(x) will be sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval so option (3) will be correct.

What is a function?

A certain kind of relationship called a function binds inputs to essentially one output.

In other terms, a function is a relationship between variables, and the type of relationship that exists between the variables defines the function, such as y = sinx and y = x +6.

Given function is

f(x) = (x - 5) (2x - 7) (7x - 3)

The term (x - 5) will be negative if x < 5.

The term (2x - 7) will be negative if x<3.5

Let's say if x = 4 then (x - 5) will be negative but (2x - 7) will be positive and hence overall value will be negative.

But if x = 3 then (x - 5) will be negative and (2x - 7)  will also be negative and hence overall value will be negative

Hence the function f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative on the interval.

Using the triangle exterior angle theorem, we know that:

∠4 = the other two angles of the triangle combined (both are given)

Thus:

∠4 = 51 + 51 = 102°

Angle 4 is an outside angle.

An outside angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite inside angles.

The two opposite inside angles to angle 4 are shown as 51 and 51

Angle 4 = 51 + 51

[tex]5+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{7} + 2\sqrt{3} = a - b\cdot \sqrt{3}[/tex].

By direct comparison we have the following system of equations:

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{7}+2\sqrt{3} = -b\cdot \sqrt{3}[/tex] (2)

In (2) we solve for [tex]b[/tex]:

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of an inscribed angle intercepted by an arc is half of the measure of the arc.

From the picture attached,

m(∠A) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}m(\text{arc BD})[/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[m(\text{BC})+m(\text{CD}][/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[55^{\circ}+145^{\circ}][/tex]

           = 100°

m(∠C) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[(360^{\circ})-m(\text{arc BCD})][/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(360^{\circ}-200^{\circ})[/tex]

           = 80°

m(∠B) + m(∠D) = 180° [ABCD is cyclic quadrilateral]

115° + m(∠D) = 180°

m(∠D) = 65°

m(arc AC) = 2[m(∠D)]

m(arc AB) + m(arc BC) = 2(65°) [Since, m(arc AC) = m(arc AB) + m(arc BC)]

m(arc AB) + 55° = 130°

m(arc AB) = 75°

m(arc ADC) = 2(m∠B)

m(arc AD) + m(arc DC) = 2(115°)

m(arc AD) + 145° = 230°

Find x if AC = 7x - 15 and BD = 4x + 15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 4x = 15 + 15

3x = 30

x = 10

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AC and BD are congruent , then

7x - 15 = 4x + 15 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

3x - 15 = 15 ( add 15 to both sides )

3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 10
