Answer:

a=7, b=14

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 2/6=x/21

cross multiply=

2×21=x×6

then solve

42=6x

divide both sides by 6

x=42/6=<u>7</u>

b. 150/84=25/x

cross multiply=

84×25=150×x

then solve

2100=150x

divide both sides by 150

x=2100/150=<u>1</u><u>4</u>

An artist needs to purchase jars of paint. The table shows Which quantity container is the better buy?
frutty [35]

Answer:8-oz jar

First, we have to find out what is the unit rate of the 2-oz jar. $1.50÷2 is $.75.

Second, we have to find the unit rate of the 4-oz jar. $2.92÷4=$73.

Third, we have to find the unit rate of the 8-oz jar. $5.68=$.71.

Fourth, we have to find the unit rate of the 16-oz jar. The division for this one may be tricky. From dividing $11.62 by 16, is stopped at the 3rd number I got from dividing. I got $.726. This is not a value of cents and the value can't go in the thousandths place. So, I rounded .726. I got $.73. So $11.62÷16=$.73.

Lastly, you have to compare the amounts.

The lowest amount or better buy, is $.71 or 8-oz jar.

7. Jason wants to walk the shortest distance to get from the parking lot to the beach
Assoli18 [71]
There are 3 right triangles.
                         Long leg          short leg           hypotenuse
Large                  ?                          ?                       32+18 = 50 m
Medium            32 m                     x                          ?
Small                   x                         18 m                    ?

Similar triangles: small & medium

short leg / long leg
x/32 = 18/x
x*x = 18 * 32
x² = 576
√x² = √576
x = 24

                       Long leg          short leg           hypotenuse
Large                  ? → 40 m          ?                       32+18 = 50 m
Medium            32 m                     24 m                 ? → 40 m
Small                24 m                     18 m                  ? → 30 m

solve hypotenuse of medium and small using Pythagorean theorem.

32² + 24² = c²
1024 + 576 = c²
1600 = c²
√1600 = √c²
40 = c

24² + 18² = c²
576 + 324 = c²
900 = c²
√900 = √c²
30 = c

Solve for the long leg of the large right triangle using ratio and proportion
medium and large: long leg / hypotenuse

32/40 = x/50
32*50 = 40 * x
1600 = 40x
1600/40 = x
40 = x
