Caitlin makes candles and sells them in her online shop. Tall candles cost $8 each and short candles cost $5 each. last month, she sold a total of 91 candles and made $572.

how many tall candles did she sell?

how many short candles did she sell?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

tall candles = 39

Short candles = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

let tall candles be x

and short candles be y

No. Of candles sold = x + y =91

Money made from candles will be equal to = 8x + 5y = $572

These both are simultaneous linear equations.

x + y =91 ( multiply by 5)

5x + 5y = 455

8x + 5y = $572

Subtract them:

-3x = -117

x = -117/3

x = 39

put value of x in

x + y = 91

39 + y = 91

y = 91 - 39

y = 52

x shows tall candles so they are 39

y shows short candles so they are 52

find the value of tan30+cot30+sin60​

Answers

Hello!

This is a problem about relating values of the Unit Circle.

First, we need to figure out the specific "points" of each angle measure of 30 and 60.

For the angle measure 30, the point will be [tex](\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\frac{1}{2})[/tex].

For the angle measure 60, the point will be [tex](\frac{1}{2},\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})[/tex].

The tangent value of a point will be its [tex]y[/tex] value over its [tex]x[/tex] value.

[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}=\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}[/tex]

The cotangent value of a point will be the reciprocal of the tangent value, which we found previously.

[tex]\frac{3}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{3}=\sqrt{3}[/tex]

The sine value of a point will be the [tex]y[/tex] value of the point.

[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

So the values we have so far are [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}+\sqrt{3}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

Now we have to find the LCD to add these together, which in this case would be 6.

[tex]\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{6}+\frac{6\sqrt{3}}{6}+\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{6}[/tex]

Which adds up to [tex]\frac{11\sqrt{3}}{6}[/tex], which is in simplest radical form.

Hope this helps!

The perimeter of the triangle is 34 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the perimeter of the triangle

This is simply the sum of the side lengths

mathematically, the distance of two lines from a point touching the circle is the same

so, on the other sides, we have the missing sides as;

5cm, 4 cm and 8 cm

So the perimeter will be;

4cm + 5cm + 8 cm + 4 cm + 8 cm + 5 cm = 34 cm

Answers

Answer:

x^2+12x-13 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

12x=13-x^2

=>12x+x^2=13-x^2+x^2

=>x^2+12x-13 = 13-13

=> x^2+12x-13 = 0

Answer:

x² + 12x - 13 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

12x = 13 - x²

the standard form of an equation is written starting from the variable of the highest degree to the lowest. Hence after rearranging;

0 = 13 - x² - 12x

0 = -x² - 12x + 13

In an equation, the highest degree of a variable should preferably be postive hence the equation to the left side to remove the negative sign:

x² + 12x - 13 = 0

Help! (16 pts if you answer!)

Answers

Given:

Tom needs to plow 1.1 acres of land.

He can plow 5.5 acres in an hour.

To find:

The time taken by Tom to plow 1.1 acres of land.

Solution:

We have,

Time take by Tom to plow 5.5 acres = 1 hour

Time take by Tom to plow 1 acre = [tex]\dfrac{1}{5.5}[/tex] hour

Time take by Tom to plow 1.1 acres = [tex]\dfrac{1.1}{5.5}[/tex] hour

                                                           = [tex]0.2[/tex] hour

Therefore, the time taken by Tom to plow 1.1 acres of land is 0.2 hour.

Solve for the area of the figure below and show work.

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can see that this kite-shape has 4 triangles in it.

The area of a triangle is as follows:

[tex]A = \frac{bh}{2}[/tex]

Where:

b = Base (length)

h = Height

Top Right Triangle Area:

b = 9

h = 3

A = [tex]\frac{3 * 9}{2}[/tex]

A = [tex]\frac{27}{2}[/tex]

Bottom Right Triangle Area:

b = 9

h = 3

A = [tex]\frac{3 * 9}{2}[/tex]

A = [tex]\frac{27}{2}[/tex]

Top Left Triangle Area:

b = 4

h = 3

[tex]A = \frac{4*3}{2}[/tex]

A = [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex]

A = 6

Bottom Left Triangle Area:

b = 4

h = 3

[tex]A = \frac{4*3}{2}[/tex]

A = [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex]

A = 6

Now, we add all the areas together to get the area of the kite figure.

A = [tex]\frac{27}{2}[/tex] +

A = 27 + 12

A = 39

The area of the kite figure is 39 [tex]m^{2}[/tex].

2. We have to find the area of the trapezoid.

(I'm not sure if the 9 is for the entire bottom side length)

If the bottom side length is 9, then we would use the formula:

A = [tex]\frac{a + b}{2} h[/tex]

to find the area of the entire trapezoid.

A = [tex]\frac{2.4 + 9}{9}[/tex] × 8.2

A ≈ 46.74 [tex]mi^{2}[/tex]
