I Need The Answer Plz!!! Geometry Is Hard!!!
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

B. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to recognize that the two triangles are similar (the triangle with a leg value of 21 and the triangle with a leg value of 4 and hypotenuse x)

Let's first label the leg of the second triangle as y.

Then, we can set up this equation

\frac{21}{y} =\frac{y}{4}

Cross multiplying gives us

84=y^2

So, y=sqrt(84) or 2 sqrt(21).

Now, using the pythagorean theorem, we get

4^2+2sqrt(21)^2=x^2

100=x^2

x=10

5. One canned juice drink is 15% orange juice; another is 10% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in
hram777 [196]
X: liters of 15% orange juice
y: liters of 10% orange juice

x+y=5L

y=5L - x

x liters of 15% orange juice plus y liters of 10% orange juice makes 5 liters of 12% orange juice in equation form:

0.15x+0.10y = 0.12(5L)

0.15x+0.10(5L-x)=0.12(5L)

0.15x+0.5-0.10x=0.6

0.05x=0.1L

x=2L

so y = 3L

so you need 2 liters of 15% orange juice and 3 liters of 10% orange juice
