(a) 3x=4(x-2.25) (or simplified: 3x=4x-9)

(b) 3x=4x-9
0=x-9
x=$9

(c) 3x9=27
4x9=36
36-9=27
and 27=27 therefore they spent the same and it is correct

(d) Tanya's items cost $9 each and Tony's items cost $2.25 less than this, or $6.75

Special right triangles: decimal answers
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

h=11.3 and c=8(or 8.1 depending on what you do first)

Step-by-step explanation:

so we do the same thing like last time and 8√2 rounded is 11.3, and 7/√3, or 7√3/3 is 4( 4.04 gets rounded down). now we multiply by two because of the theorems and get 8(if this is wrong then try 8.1 because the answer differs depending on what you do first.)
