Answer: 8 1/3 hours or 500 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that there are 100 centimeters in a meter.

The snail moves at a pace of 12 cm/h, and needs to go 100 cm. You can just divide 100/12 to get 8 1/3, which is how many hours (groups of 12 cm) it takes for the snail to travel 100 cm (1 meter).

If necessary, you can also multiply 8 1/3 by 60 to get the number of minutes the snail takes. 8 times 60 is 480, and 1/3 of an hour is 20, so add 480+20 to get 500 minutes.

Use the formula A=bh , where A is the area, b is the base length, and h is the height of the parallelogram, to solve this proble

harkovskaia [24]

We know that:

A = 1440
H = 32

So you need to work backwards to find base.

1440 / 32 = 45

We can check our work:

32 x 45 = 1440

B = 45

Answer:

7 cm, 4.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths can be found from the law of cosines. Each triangle has legs 3 cm and 5 cm. The angle between these will be 60° or 120°. Then the two sides of the parallelogram are ...

s = √(a² +b² -2ab·cos(C))

s = √(3² +5² -2·3·5·(±1/2)) = √(34 ±15) = {√49, √19}

The two side lengths are 7 cm and about 4.4 cm.
