Answer:

Q1:  20,000 envelopes

Q2: Savings = $700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of envelopes stuffed by each be "x"

We can create 2 equations, each for Anna and Jason, equate them and find our answer.

<u>For Anna:</u>

$14 for 400, so

14/400 = $0.035 PER ENVELOPE

Savings for Anna is  0.035x

<u>For Jason:</u>

Already has 100 (fixed)

Gets $9 for 300 envelopes, so

9/300 = $0.03 PER ENVELOPE

Savings for Jason is  100 + 0.03x

We equate and solve for x:

0.035x=100+0.03x\\0.005x=100\\x=20,000

So, For both their savings to be equal, they need to stuff 20,000 envelopes

Their savings would be:

0.035x

or 100 + 0.03x

We can plug in x = 20,000 in any one equation, the answer would be same.

So,

0.035(20,000) = $700

savings = $700

Answer:

  11.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

As the page title tells you, the Pythagorean theorem must be applied more than once. As you know, it tells you the square of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the two sides.

  AD² = ED² +EA²

  EA² = AD²-ED² = 7² -6² = 13

  EA = √13 ≈ 3.606

__

  CD² = ED² +EC²

  EC² = CD² -ED² = 10² -6² = 64

  EC = √64 = 8

__

The length of the horizontal diagonal is ...

  AC = EA +EC = 3.6 +8 = 11.6 . . . cm
