<h3>Answer:</h3>
2.4 potatoes/pound
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
The unit rate is the slope of the line. The slope of the line is ...
... (change in y-value)/(change in x-value)
... = (36 potatoes - 12 potatoes)/(15 pounds - 5 pounds)
... = (24 potatoes)/(10 pounds)
... = 2.4 potatoes/pound
_____
The relationship here is proportional, so the line goes through the point (0, 0) and the unit rate can be figured from any point:
... (12 potates)/(5 pounds) = (24 potatoes)/(10 pounds) = (36 potatoes)/(15 pounds) = 2.4 potatoes/pound
Answer:
The hypotenuse of the triangle measures 13 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the Pythagorean theorem states that in any right triangle the lengths of the three sides are related by the equation A ^ 2 + B ^ 2 = C ^ 2, to determine the length of the hypotenuse in a right thangle with legs 5 inches and 12 inches the following calculation should be performed:
5 ^ 2 + 12 ^ 2 = X ^ 2
25 + 144 = X ^ 2
√169 = X
13 = X
Therefore, the hypotenuse of the triangle measures 13 inches.
Probably the property of subtraction.
