Answer:

X = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we'll first of all find determine the side length of the triangle from the perimeter.

Perimeter of an equilaterial triangle = 3 * s

S = side length

Perimeter = 150cm

150 = 3s

S = 150 / 3

S = 50cm

The side lengths are 50cm each since they are all equal.

To find x,

We have to divide the triangle equally into two different part.

Check the first attachment for better illustration on how the equilaterial triangle is.

Check the second attachment for better illustration on the triangle when its divided into a right angle triangle.

From the right angle triangle, we can use pythagorean theorem to solve for x

a² = b² + c²

a = 50cm

b = 25cm

c = x√(3)

50² = [x√(3)]² + 25²

2500 = x² * 3 + 625

2500 - 625 = 3x²

1875 = 3x²

X² = 1875 / 3

X² = 625

X = √(625)

X = 25

My lawn is 17ft wide and 20ft long, each square foot of lawn gets 1350 new snowflakes per min how much snow in kilograms accumul
Alina [70]

Answer:

46.818 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the surface area of your yard. This is found by multiplying the length and width.

The equation for this is (l*w)=sa

So,

l=20ft

w=17ft

(20*17)= 340 square feet.

So, if each square foot gets 1350 new flakes per minute, you are going to find how much the entire yard gets in a minute by multiplying the surface area by 1350.

So,

(340*1350)= 459000  flakes for the entire yard in one minute.

Since there is 60 minutes in an hour, multiply 459,000 by 60.

459,000*60= 27,540,000  new flakes in the yard per hour.

Now, to find the weight in milligrams:

27,540,000*1.7= 46,818,000  mgs

Finally, because a kilogram is equal to one million milligrams (mg),

46,818,000/1,000,000= 46.818 kg

Sherry brings two containers of cookies to a party. Each container contains 6 cookies. Sally shows up with a dozen cookies. Sand
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

22 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen items means 12 number of items.

Number of cookies brought by Sherry = No. of containers multiplied by number of cookies in one container

= 2 \times 6 = 12

Number of cookies brought by Sally = A dozen cookies = 12

Number of cookies brought by Sandy = 2

Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together = 12 + 12+2 = 26

Total number of cookies to be brought = 4 dozen = 48 cookies

Number of cookies to be brought by Harry = Total number of cookies to be brought - Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together

48 - 26 = <em>22 cookies</em>
