<span>Okay so let x = the amount of apples that Maria picks.
Andre picks three times as much as Maria, so amount Andre picks = 3x

Jane picks two times as much as Andre, and Andre = 3x So Jane = 2(3x), = 6x
</span><span>All of these added together should give 840.
</span>
<span>x + 3x + 6x = 840
</span><span>10x = 840.
</span><span>x = 84
</span><span>Therefore, Maria picked 84 pounds of apples
Andre picked 3x = 3 x 84 = 252 pounds of apples.
Jane picked 6x = 6 x 84 = 504 pounds of apples.</span>

xeze [42]

Answer: 136 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The ratio of cranberries and raspberries is 8:9 .

Let quantity of cranberries= 8x , quantity of raspberries = 9x

If quantity of cranberries = 64 ounces

\Rightarrow\ 8x=64\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{64}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8

Quantity of raspberries = 9(8) = 72 ounces

Total quantity = 64 ounces  +  72 ounces =  136 ounces

Hence, the total weight of berries purchased=  136 ounces

Zane calculated the missing side length of one of these triangles using the Pythagorean Theorem. Which triangle is it?
topjm [15]
The pythagorean theorem states that for any RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLE, the relationship between the side lengths are A²+B²=C², where C is the hypotenuse :P

Which means that it can only be applied on right angled triangles~
So your answer would be B, a right-angled triangle.
