Ben and Alyssa play a game in which they earn the same number of points for each goal and lose the same number of points for each penalty. Ben makes 7 goals and 2 penalties, ending the game with 21 points. Alyssa earns 10 goals and 8 penalties and ends the game with -6 points. How much does a penalty cost and how much does a goal give?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each goal gives 5 points and a penalty costs 7 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a penalty cost = x points

And a goal gives = y points

Ben makes 7 goals and 2 penalties ending the game with 21 points,

7y - 2x = 21 --------(1)

Alyssa makes 10 goals and 8 penalties ending the game with (-6) points,

10y - 8x = -6

5y - 4x = -3 --------(2)

Equation (1) multiplied by 2, then subtracted from equation (2),

(5y - 4x) - 2(7y - 2x) = -3 - 2(21)

5y - 4x - 14y + 4x = -3 - 42

-9y = -45

y = 5

From equation (1)

7(5) - 2x = 21

35 - 2x = 21

2x = 35 - 21

2x = 14

x = 7

Therefore, each goal gives 5 points and a penalty costs 7 points.

Answer:

  x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

From graph,

             The angle of the triangle ∝ = 45°

   Given hypotenuse of the triangle

              AC = 12√2  and AB = x

Step(ii):-

we will choose sine function

            [tex]sin\alpha = \frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

            [tex]sin\alpha = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

 Given that an angle ∝ = 45°

           [tex]sin45 = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

           [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

           [tex]\frac{1}{1 } = \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

          x = 12

Final answer:-

x = 12

Consider the expression 40+24 Find the greatest common factor of the two numbers and rewrite the expression using the distributive property

Answers

Answer:

Greatest Common Factor of 40+24 is 8

Rewriting the expression using the distributive property we get             8(5+3) =8(5)+8(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to F=find the greatest common factor of the two numbers 40+24 and rewrite the expression using the distributive property

Greatest Common Factor:

The greatest number that is divisible by both numbers is known as greatest common factor.

So, Greatest Common Factor of 40+24 is 8

Now, Taking 8 common we get: 8(5+3)

Distributive property:

It is written as: a(b+c) = ab+ac

So, we have 8(5+3) =8(5)+8(3)

Rewriting the expression using the distributive property we get 8(5+3) =8(5)+8(3)

For each triangle:

 vertex angle = (360/n)°

   sum of base angles = 180° - vertex angle = 180° - (360/n)°

Each interior angle of the n-gon = 180° - (360/n)°

Jack and Jill both start at point A. They each walk in a straight line at an angle of 105° to each other. After 45 minutes Jack has walked 4.5km and Jill has walked 6km. How far apart are they? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer: The distance between them is 8.38 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose both of them start at the point (0km, 0km), and that Jack walks along the positive x-axis, then Jill walks at an angle of 105° measured from the positive x-axis.

After 45 minutes, jack has walked 4.5km, then if his initial position was (0 km, 0 km)

Then his new position will be (4.5km, 0km)

Jill has walked 6km, but we need to write this in rectangular components.

We can think in this as a triangle rectangle, then the components will be:

x-component = 6 km*cos(105°) = -1.55 km

y-component = 6km*sin(105°) = 5.80 km

Then the new position of Jill is ( -1.55km, 5.80km)

Now, we know that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

Distance = √( (a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2)

Then the distance between Jill and Jack will be equal to the distance between ( -1.55km, 5.80km) and (4.5km, 0km)

This is:

Distance = √( (-1.55km - 4.5km)^2 + (5.80km - 0km)^2)

Distance = 8.38 km

This means that they are 8.38km apart.

Specify the set of B by giving a written description of It’s element where B={ 0,1,4,9,16,25}

Answers

Answer:

B = { square numbers less than 30 }.

or

B = {x/x is square of a whole number; [tex]0 \leq x \leq 5[/tex] }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set B

B={ 0,1,4,9,16,25}

Let us check the elements in set B.

[tex]x = 0 = 0^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:1\:=\:1^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:4\:=\:2^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:9\:=\:3^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:16\:=\:4^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:25\:=\:5^2[/tex]

It is clear that each element in set B is a square of a whole number.

Thus, we can specify set of B by giving a written description of Its element in a variety of ways, such as:

B = { square numbers less than 30 }.

or

B = {x/x is square of a whole number; [tex]0 \leq x \leq 5[/tex] }

A DVD player is regularly priced at 79.95 and is on sale for 30% off. What is the discount?

Answers

Answer:

$2.40 or $77.55

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if you are asking for how much off or what, so I'm doing both

First, we have to find how much we have to take off or what is 30% of 79.95 so our equation is:

79.95 x 0.03 = 2.40

So 30% of 79.95 is $2.40

To find how much our new price sale is, we have to take that $2.40 off so our equation is:

79.95 - 2.4 = 77.55

So our discount price is $77.55

Add 3 to both sides and divide by .5 to get

20=|x-4|

Then solve this equation where the leftmost side is a positive and then a negative

So 20=x-4  

x=24

Then solve it when the left side is a negative

-20=x-4
