3(5b-1)=5 solve for b 4(3y-1)=20 solve for y

1 answer:

7 0

3(5b-1)=5
Get rid of the brackets
15b-3=5
add 3 to both sides of the equation
15b=8
divide both sides of the equation by 15
b=0.53

4(3y-1)=20
12y-4=20
12y=24
y=0.5

For this case what we must do is use the law of cosines.
We then have the following equation:
$c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 - 2 * a * b * cos (x)
$
Where,
a, b: sides of the triangle
x: angle between sides a and b.
Substituting values we have:
$c^2 = 90^2 + 75^2 - 2*90*75*cos(85)
$
Clearing the value of c we have:
$c = \sqrt{ 90^2 + 75^2 - 2*90*75*cos(85)}$
Answer:
An expression that is equivalent to how many feet the oak trees are from each other is:
$c = \sqrt{ 90^2 + 75^2 - 2*90*75*cos(85)}$

1. JP Construction is building a rectangular children's wading pool for the local community center. The pool will be 4.5 meters

Bond [772]

Answer:

$x\leq 1.78$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Width of pool, b=4.5 m

We have to find the inequality which represents the possible lengths of the wading pool.

Let x be the length of wading pool

We know that

Area of rectangle= $length\times breadth$

According to question

Using the formula

$4.5x\leq 8$

Divide by 4.5 on both sides we get

$x\leq\frac{8}{4.5}$

$x\leq 1.78$

Which statement lists contractionary policies? Question 73 options: a) The Fed purchases bonds, lowers the discount rate, and lo

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Contractionary monetary policies are instruments used by the FED to decrease the amount of money in an economy. There are three classic instruments of monetary policy: open market, rediscount policy and compulsory deposit. The open market is about buying and selling federal government bonds. Thus, by selling bonds, the bank will be increasing the supply of bonds in the economy, on the other hand, is withdrawing dollars, that is, will be withdrawing currency from the economy, resulting in a contractionary monetary policy. Rediscount refers to the interest rate on loans that the FED lends to financial institutions. In situations of illiquidity, banks turn to the FED for loans. In this case, the FED, by increasing the rediscount rate, hindering the supply of money to the institutions and thus exerting a contractionary monetary policy. Finally, bank reserves refer to the part of banks' monetary reserves that are required to be deposited with the FED. Thus, by increasing the percentage of such reserves, the FED is exerting a contractionary fiscal policy, as it decreases the total amount of commercial banks' borrowing resources.
