You could just multiply the whole number with the numerator and then divide the answer by the denominator. Or you could write the whole number over 1, and then simplify the numbers before multiplying straight across.

2/3 x 36
2/3 x 36/1
2/1 x 12/1 (simplified the 3 and the 36)
24/1=24 (just multiplied across)

Oh I learned actually like 1 week ago I think so my teacher told me that if you multiply a fraction with a whole number than the answer has to be a fraction if you multiply a whole number with a fraction it has to be a whole number

Answer: a = 8; b = 15; c = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

c = b + 2 and c = 2a + 1

b = c − 2 and a = $\frac{c-1}{2}$

c² = b² + a²

$c^{2} = (c-2)^{2} + \frac{c-1}{2}\\$

$c^{2}= \frac{4 (c-2)^{2}+(c - 1)^{2} }{4}$

$4c^{2}={4 (c^{2} + 4 -4c)+c ^{2} + 1-2c$

$4c^{2}={4 c^{2} + 16 -16c)+c ^{2} + 1-2c$

$c^{2}-18c+17=0$

$c(c -17)-1(c-17)=0$

$(c -1)(c-17)=0$

c = 1 or c = 17

If c = 1 then b = 1 - 2 = -1, that's not possible

So x = 17

b = 17 - 2 = 15

a = $\frac{17-1}{2} = 8$

Length sides of the triangle are 17 cm, 15 cm and 8 cm.

I saw some of this on a site but I want to make sure its correct so we're gonna apply the pythagorean theory and see if its correct.

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2} \\8^{2} + 15^{2} = 17^{2} \\64 + 225 = 289\\289 = 289\\$

This shows that this is correct.

Hope this helped! Again, some of this was from a site, not from me.

Answer:

<h3>A. 50 yards.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of the length of PH as P(2,55) and H(32, 15), to get the actual length of the land bridge from P to H, we will use the formula for calculating the distance between two points.

D = √(x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²

PH = √(32-2)²+(15-55)²

PH = √(30)²+(-40)²

PH = √900+1600

PH = √2,500

PH = 50

Hence the actual length of the land bridge from P to H to the nearest yard is 50 yards.
