Let a and c be adults and children, respectively. Then:
a+c=500
5a+2c=1540
Solve for a and c

Hi there! An average person ate 200.8 pounds of meat, so we would multiply that number by 3 to see how much meat the family ate altogether. 200.8 * 3 is 602.4. There. A family of 3 would eat 602.4 pounds of meat in a year.

If the area of the blue square is 144 units2 and the area of the pink square is 1225 units2, then the length of the hypotenuse i

navik [9.2K]

Answer: 37 units

Step-by-step explanation:

$Blue=144units^2$ This also works as the height of the triangle.

$Pink=1225units^2$ This also works as the base of the triangle.

Let's call pink ''a'', and blue ''b''. The side we're looking for ''c'' is the hypothenuse.

To find the values of a and b, use the area formula of a square and solve for a side. In this case, since we're going to need the squared values, this step can be omitted.

$Formula: A=s^2$

$s=\sqrt[]{A}$

Let's work with Blue.

$s=\sqrt[]{144units^2} \\s=12units$

Now Pink.

$s=\sqrt[]{1225units^2}\\s=35units$

So we have a triangle with a base of 35 units and a height of 12 units.

Now let's use the pythagoream's theorem to solve.

$c^2=a^2+b^2\\c=\sqrt[]{a^2+b^2} \\c=\sqrt[]{(12units)^2+(35units)^2}\\c=\sqrt[]{144units^2+1225units^2}\\ c=\sqrt[]{1369units^2}\\ c=37units$
