Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When working with 45-45-90 triangles the hypotenuse is the same as the other legs multiplied by root 2. Therefore if you need to find the legs and already have the hypotenuse, divide the hypotenuse by root 2.
10/ sqrt(2) = 7.1 is the rounded answer.
to double check your work just multiply 7.1 by the square root of 2 and you'll get <em>close</em> to 10. (because the answer is rounded and not exact.)
<span>current ratio: 4 apple trees for every 3 pear trees.
wants: 2 avocado trees for every 5 pear trees in the orchard.
Sandy is planting 18 avocado trees
so 2 avocado trees for every 5 pear trees
=1 avocado trees for every 2.5 pear trees
therefore if we have 18 avocado trees
18 x 2.5 = 45 pear trees
4 apple trees for every 3 pear trees
4/3
= 1.333 apple trees for every 1 pear tree
therefore if we have 45 avocado trees
45 x 1.333 = 60 apple trees
therefore ratio of avocado to apple trees = 18 : 60
18 : 60
= 9 : 30
= 3 : 10</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of sales each man had.
For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.
For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x. We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.
Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:
65x = 40x+300
Subtract 40x from each side:
65x-40x = 40x+300-40x
25x = 300
Divide both sides by 25:
25x/25 = 300/25
x = 12
Answer: 73.1 pounds of sand.
Step-by-step explanation: 48.5 Pounds (Big Bag) + 24.6 (Small Bag)
48.5+24.6 is equal to 73.1 pounds of sand. That is how much sand was purchased altogether.
