Answer:

Total number of jolly ranchers= 140

Total number of candy bars= 60

Now , we have to place jolly and candy into gift bags such that no pieces of candy should left.

1. Find the ratio of jolly ranchers and candy bars

= 140/60

= 7/3

So, possible combination are (7,3),(14,6),(28,12),(35,15),(70,30).

1.So,in combination (7,3), number of bags= $\frac{Total candy}{(7+3)}$

= $\frac{200}{10}$

=20

2. Number of Bags(14,6)=200÷20=10

3.Number of Bags(28,12)=200÷40=5

4.Number of Bags(35,15)= 200÷50=4

5.Number of Bags(70,30)=200÷100=2

Combination (1) in which there are 7 Jolly ranchers and 3 candy bars has the most amount of bags which is 20.

Answer:

option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

using distance formula

=> root{ ( x2 - x1)² + (y2-y1)²}

=> root {(-5-1)² + (2+6)²}

=> root {(-6)² + (8)²}

=> root {36 + 64}

=> root {100}

=> 10 units

What is the area of the square adjacent to the third side of the triangle?

Naddik [55]

Answer:

85 units^2 = Area of Blue Square

and

x = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we use the Pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2). a and b represent the legs of the triangle whereas c represents the longest side of the triangle, or the hypotenuse.

Since we know the area of a square is the side length multiplied by itself (or the side length squared), $\sqrt{35}$ is the side length of the pink square and $\sqrt{50}$ is the side length of the green square.
