Natural numbers, also known as counting numbers
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the smaller of the two factors of 896 that have the ratio 8:7.
<h3>Setup</h3>
Let x represent the smaller of the two factors (the one we want to find). Then the larger factor is (8/7)x, and their product is ...
x(8/7)x = 896
(8/7)x² = 896
<h3>Solution</h3>
Multiplying by the inverse of the coefficient of x², we have ...
x² = (7/8)(896) = 784
x = √784 = 28 . . . . . . . . take square root
The smaller of the two numbers is 28.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The larger is (8/7)(28) = 32.
In the problem, two legs measurement were given such as:
Leg 1 = 12 inches
Leg 2 = 15 inches
We need to solve for the third leg. Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean theorem in solving the missing leg:
c²=b²+a²
When we assume that the third leg is the "c", we can for the value such as:
c² = 12²+15²
c=19.21
When we assume that the third is either "a" or "b":
15² =a² + 12²
a=9
Then, the possible measurement of the third leg is 9 or 19.21.
The difference between the two possible answer is shown below:
Difference = 19.21 -9 = 10.21
Difference =10.21
Answer:
28.27cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
formula:
A=πr²
d = 2r
Solving for A
A=1/4π d² = 1/4 · π · 6² ≈ 28.27433cm²
rounded: 28.27cm²
hope this helped!
