Answer:
22 pounds of watermelon
Step-by-step explanation:
First find cost per pound
19.60/8=2.45
$2.45 per pound
Then divide $53.90 by $2.45 to determine how many pounds you can buy
53.90/2.45=22
22 pounds of watermelon

Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the measure of sides of a triangle are 8:15:17
The perimeter is 480
8x + 15x + 17x= 480
40x= 480
x = 480/40
x = 12
Therefore the measure of the shortest side of the triangle can be calculated as follows
8x
8×12
= 96
Answer:
Base = x = 18ft
Height = x - 4 = 14ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of A the triangle is given by the following equation:
1) A = (base * heigth)/(2)
From this problem, we know that
base = x and that the height is 4ft less than the base, so height = base - 4 = x - 4.
We also know that the area is 126ft², so A = 126 ft². Now we can replace these informations in equation 1).
126 = (x(x-4))/2
x² - 4x = 252
x² -4x - 252 = 0
The roots of this equation are x = 18 or x = -14. But we know that a triangle cannot have negative dimensions, so we use x = 18.
The base is x, so base = 18ft.
Height is 4ft less than the base, so height equals 18-4 = 14ft
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways to see what the next sequence number would be in this case.
First approach, you start with the first number (1) than count every other number, which are all positive integers. You do the same starting from the second number (-1), which would then be all negative integers.
Second approach, consider 2 consecutive numbers being a single element of the series... each has a number (1,2,3) with its positive and negative values.
