1 pound = 16 ounces

If you have 6 pounds of horsehair,
16 ounces × 6 pounds = 96 ounces

One pull weights about 0.011 ounces, in order to find how many pulls you can make with 96 ounces of horsehair, you divide 96 ÷ 0.011 .
96 ÷ 0.011 = 8727 (rounded to whole number)

8727 pulls could be made from 6 pounds of horsehair.

Shtirlitz [24]
The jeep gets 22 miles per gallon...

he has 5 gallons in the tank already....
buys gas at 1.25 per gallon.....spends $ 22...so he buys 22 / 1.25 = 17.6 gallons
so he has a total of (5 + 17.6) = 22.6 gallons....at 22 miles per gallon =
22.6 * 22 = 497.2 miles <==

Find three right triangles based upon the Pythagorean Triple of 8, 15, and 17. Explain how you know these are triangles.
Luba_88 [7]
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2
64 + 225 = 289
289=289
It is a triangle because the numbers match the Pythagorean Theorem.

HELP HELP ME PLS I AM RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!! HERE IS MY PROBLEM:
kramer

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To write fractions with a common denominator, you will most likely need to scale some numbers up! I will explain how.

Let's try it with the fractions

2

3

and

3

12

12 is larger than 3, so we will have to multiply the 3 by some number to equal 12. (We are really finding the Least Common Multiple of the two denominators!) To do this, you have to multiply the 3 by 4, because 3x4=12. But now the numerator doesn't match the denominator. When you scale the denominator up, you have to scale the numerator up too! So the 2 must be multiplied by 4 also.

Now you have the following:

8

12

and

3

12

These fractions now have common denominators! Now they're all set for adding or subtracting fractions.

Try another:

2

6

and

3

5

: The least common multiple of 6 and 5 is 30. (the product of the denominators)

Transform each fraction by multiplying by "1":

2

6

⋅

5

5

=

10

30

and

3

5

⋅

6

6

=

18

30

One last problem:

4

9

and

7

6

What is the least common multiple of 9 and 6? Could you use 54? Absolutely, but it is not the LEAST number that you could use. How about 18? YES!

4

9

⋅

2

2

=

8

18

and

7

6

⋅

3

3

=

21

18

Ready to go...

Hope this helped!
