Let's say the shorter side is x.

So, the longer side would be ( 7 + x )

Now we have to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x.


a² + b² = c²

( 7 + x )² + x² = 13

7² + x² + x² = 13²

49 + 2x² = 169

2x² = 169 - 49

2x² = 120

x² = 60

x = √60


So the longer side is ( 7 + √60 ) and the shorter side is √60

when two fractions refer to the same whole and have the same denominators explain why you can compare only the numerators​
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

If the two fractions simplify to fractions with a common denominator, you can then compare numerators. If the denominators are different, you can find a common denominator first and then compare the numerators. Two fractions are equivalent fractions when they represent the same part of a whole.

aniked [119]

Answer:

2/5 is left

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the two you have so far together. 2/5+1/5=3/5

So 3/5 of your budget is used. 3/5 is a fraction, meaning that 5 is the whole.

Subtract 3 from 5 and you get 2. There are 2/5 left in the budget for everything else.

(24 + 3)/8 = 27/8

78/8 divided by 27/8 = 78/27 = 26/9 or 2 8/9 acres/day
