We can solve this by using the  P<span>ythagorean theorem which is below:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Or we can say
</span>w^2 + h^2 = d^2
<span>w = widht
h = height
d = diagonal measure


With that said, we know the height is .75 times the width so .75w. We also know d = 34, which is our diagonal measure.
w = don't know yet but need to find
h = .75w
d = 34
Now lets plugin the information we know into our equation

</span>w^2 + h^2 = d^2
w^2 + (.75w)^2 = 34^2
Now lets to the math
w^2 + (.75w)^2 = 34^2
w^2 + (.75w)^2 = 1156
w^2 + .5625w^2 = 1156
Combine like terms
w^2 + .5625w^2 = 1156
1.5625w^2 = 1156
Divide both sides of the equal sign by 1.5625
\frac{1.5625w^2}{1.5625} = \frac{1156}{1.5625}
w^2 = 739.84
Now take the square root on both sides of the equal sign
\sqrt{w^2} = \sqrt{739.84}
w = 27.2

So the width is 27.2
We can check this by putting 27.2 back into our original equation
w^2 + (.75w)^2 = 34^2
27.2^2 + (.75\times 27.2)^2 = 34^2

£140 is divided between Angad, Nick &amp; June so that Angad gets twice as much as Nick, and Nick gets three times as much as Ju
kramer

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Nick gets amount N, Angad amount A, and June amount J.

Here's what we know:

A+N+J=140

A=2*N

N=3*J.

Let's plug these values in.

N=3*J, so A+N+J=140 can now be A+3*J+J=140.

A=2*N, and N=3*J, so A=2*3*J=6*J. Then, A+3*J+J=140 is now 6*J+3*J+J=140, so 10*J=140 and J=14. N = 3*J=42 and A=2*N=84. Checking this, 14+42+84=140, so we are good to go!

I will mark brainliest please help me​
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Formula for mean in grouped data

= Zfx/ Zf

f = sum of the number of mice

= 35

Frequency = 39 + x

Mean = 7

Fx = 20 + 78 + 112 + 8x + 54

= 264 + 8x

7 = 264 + 8x/ 39 + x

7(39+x) = 264 + 8x

After solving you will get

x = 9

Hope this helps.
