A textbook store sold a combined total of 402 biology and physics textbooks in a week. The number of physics textbooks
sold was 54 less than the number of biology textbooks sold. How many textbooks of each type were sold?
Number of biology textbooks sold: 0
Number of physics textbooks sold:
0

Answers

Answer 1

We have two types of textbooks. Let's use "x" to represent the number of math textbooks and "y" to represent the number of history textbooks.

Altogether, the bookseller sold 240 math and history textbooks. So:

x + y = 240

Now, the number of history textbooks sold was 72 less than the number of math books sold. So:

y = x - 72

Now we can substitute for y in the equation and solve:

x + y = 240

x + (x - 72) = 240

2x - 72 = 240

2x = 312

x = 156

The bookseller sold 156 math textbooks.

Since y = x - 72, he must have sold 84 history textbooks.

Let's check our answers:

x + y = 240

156 + 84 = 240

That is true, so we did get the correct answers.

Answers

Answer:

n = 6

m = 6√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 30°

Opposite = n

Adjacent = m

Hypotenuse = 12

✔️To find n, apply the trigonometric ratio, SOH:

Sin 30° = Opp/Hyp

Sin 30° = n/12

n = Sin 30° × 12

n = ½ × 12 = 6

✔️To find m, apply the trigonometric ratio, CAH:

Cos 30° = Adj/Hyp

Cos 30° = m/12

m = Cos 30° × 12

m = √3/2 × 12 (cos 30 = √3/2)

m = √3 × 6

m = 6√3

Answer:

  37°

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rhombus are angle bisectors. Angle 1 matches the other half of angle L.

  ∠1 = 37°

__

Angle 2 is the complement, 53°, and angle 3 is the same as angle 2, 53°.

The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other, so angle 4 is 90°.

Answers

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation 3x - 4 = 2x - 10 and are asked to find "x".

To solve , we need to get "x" alone entirely.

3x - 4 = 2x - 10

Subtract 2x from both sides :

x - 4 = -10

Add 4 to both sides to get our answer :

x = -6

Express f(x) in the form f(x) = (x - k)q(x) +r for the given value of k.
f(x) = 4x^3+ x² + x-8, k= -1

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 1)*(4*x² - 3*x + 4) - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

f(x) = 4*x³ + x² + x - 8

We want to write this in:

f(x) = (x - k)*q(x) + r.

with k = -1

Then we want to write:

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = (x - (-1))*q(x) + r

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = (x + 1)*q(x) + r

Because f(x) is polynomial of degree 3, we know that q(x) must be a polynomial of degree 2.

then:

q(x) = a*x² + b*x + c

Then:

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = (x + 1)*(a*x² + b*x + c) + r

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = a*x³ + b*x² + c*x   + a*x² + b*x + c + r

if we take common factors in the right side we get:

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = a*x³ + (b + a)*x² + (c + b)*x + (c + r)

Now, we must have:

4*x³ = a*x³

then:

4 = a

We also must have:

x² = (b + a)*x²

1 = (b + 4)

1 - 4 = b

-3 = b

We also must have:

x = (c + b)*x

1 = (c + (-3))

1 + 3 = c

4 = c

And finally:

- 8 =  (c + r)

-8 = 4 + r

-8 - 4 = r

-12 = r

Then:

f(x) = (x + 1)*(4*x² - 3*x + 4) - 12

Solve for
3+4 |x/2 + 3| = -11

Find the conjugate and product of

i2 + 9​

Answers

Answer:

i2 - 9

-85

Step-by-step explanation:

Conjugate of an expression is gotten by simply changing the sign to the opposite sign. For example, the conjugate of 5 is -5, the conjugate of x+2 is x-2. Given the complex value 2i+9, the conjugate will be -85

Taking their product

(2i+9)(2i-9)

Expand

2i(2i)-9(2i)+9(2i)+9(-9)

=  4i²-18-+18i-81

= 4i² - 81

Since i² = -1

= 4(-1) - 81

= -4-81

= -85

Hence the product will give -85

Write an expression to represent the total charges for the plumber in two different ways. Let h represent the number of hours the job takes.

Answers

Answer:

As a plumber charges a customer a one-time service fee of $ 79, $ 62 per hour for labor, and a surcharge of $ 15 per hour due to the call being an emergency, to write an expression to represent the total charges for the plumber in two different ways, with H representing the number of hours the job takes, the following equations should be formulated:

Option 1:

Fixed amount + amount per hour multiplied by the number of hours + emergency amount multiplied by the number of hours = X

79 + 62H + 15H = X

Option 2:

Fixed amount + sum of emergency amount and the amount per hour multiplied by the number of hours = X

79 + ((62 + 15) x H) = X
