1 pound of rice costs $3.45
1.2 pounds of rice costs x
Set up the proportion
1 / 1.2 = 3.45 / x Cross Multiply
x = 1.2 * 3.45 Combine
x = $4.14 Answer
Answer:
look at the picture for the answer
X is the hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle. The length of the sides are the difference of the inner and outer squares divided by 2. Which means that the sides of the triangle is 1.5 inches. Using that information, the length of X can be deduced to be 2.12 inches using Pythagoras theorem
M is 6 more than 10 so it will be 16
Hi! I'm happy to help!
Our total line is JL (4x), and it is split into two parts: JK, and KL. We have our values, and we know that JK+KL=JL, so we can substitute our values and solve for x:
4x=(2x+3)+(x)
4x=3x+3
To solve for x, we have to isolate it on one side of the equation.
First, let's subtract 3x from both sides so that we can isolate x:
4x=3x+3
-3x -3x
x=3
<u>So, our x=3, which means that KL=3.</u>
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
