6 minivans are needed to take (i think I'm real bad at math)
Answer: See below
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem is a²+b²=c². Since each problem gives us the length of a, b, or c, we can directly plug them into this equation and solve.
Triangle EFG
9²+b²=41²
81+b²=1681
b²=1600
b=√1600
b=40
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Triangle PQR
20²+21²=c²
400+441=c²
c²=841
c=√841
c=29
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Triangle XYZ
a²+24²=25²
a²+576=625
a²=49
a=√49
a=7
The letter x has two lines of symmetry.
Remark
Let the pigs = p
Let the chickens = c
Givens
30 heads is another way of saying that there were 30 creatures in the barnyard. In addition each chicken has 2 legs and each pig has 4
c + p = 30
2C + 4P = 100 (2) Divide (2) by 2
C + 2P = 50 (3) Subtract (1) from (3)
<u>C + P = 30</u>
P = 20
So there were 20 pigs.
Loss
gain means you’re getting more, which is positive
