"Pedro has twice as many carrots as Martha:"
p = 2m
<span>
"If Pedro gives 5 carrots to Oliver,"
p - 5 (</span>Oliver is irrelevant.)<span>
"then Martha has 3 times as many carrots as Pedro"
</span>
m = 3(p - 5)
We know p in terms of m, so substitute it in:
m = 3(2m - 5)
Distribute the 3:
m = 6m - 15
Subtract 6m from both sides:
m-6m=-15
Combine variable terms:
-5m=-15
Divide out -5
m = -15/-5
m = 3
The answer is c) 3

Answer:
18.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, you would use <em>Pythagorean Theorem </em>or a^2+b^2=c^2. Don't forget that the c in the formula is always your hypotenuse or the longest side of the triangle. The a and the b are always the legs of the triangle. (It doesn't matter which leg is which letter) The hypotenuse is also always across from the 90 degree angle. <u>Picture the 90 degree angle as an arrow pointing to the hypotenuse.</u> In this case, the hypotenuse (or c) is 20.7 cm. Now all you have to do is plug and chug! I hope this helps you and thanks for asking your question!!
