Answer: 1,124\frac{11}{13}\ minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the time in minutes that will take him to mow the entire park.

You know that he can mow 13 square feet in 1 minute and he has to mow 14,623 square feet.

Then, you can write the following proportion:

\frac{1}{13}=\frac{x}{14,623}

Solving for "x", you get:

x=\frac{14,623}{13}\ min

To write that improper fraction as a mixed number:

- The quotient when you divide the numerator by the denominator of the fraction obtained, is 1,124 (This will be the whole number).

- The remainder of that division is 11  (This will be the numerator of the fraction).

- The denominator does not change.

Then:

x=1,124\frac{11}{13}\ min

A right angled triangle has two shorter sides and one is twice as long as the other. The hypotenuse is 25cm long. What are the l
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:  x =  14.43

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states the following:  

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  

Make one side of the triangle x  

Make the second side of the triangle 2x  

Now, you can plug the values into the equation,  right?  

x^2 + 2x^2 = 25^2 or 625  

3x^2 = 625

Divide each side by 3 and you are left with:  

x^2 =  208.33

Now, take the square root of 208.33

x =  14.43

That is the shorter side. The longer side is twice that value: Therefore, 14.43 x 2 = 28.86 14.43 is one side of the triangle. The other is that same value times two. Therefore, the sides of your triangle are: 14.43 Shorter side 28.86 Longer side
