Answer:

x=34

Step-by-step explanation:

If you put Y and X into a ratio then it will be

5:2

because since their GCF is 11, then we will have to divide both of the numbers by 11.

If y=85 then that means that it was multiplied by 17. If we want them to stay within the same ratio, then we will have to multiply X (2) by 17.

That will get you 34.

5,000 tens equals how many thousands

Brilliant_brown [7]

5,000 tens = (5,000 x 10)

To find out how many thousands are in it,
just divide:

(5,000 x 10) / (1,000) = (5 x 10) = 50 of them .

For the following right triangle, find the side length x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

$\sqrt{113}$ = x

Step-by-step explanation:

In right triangles the sum of square length of two legs is equal to square length of hypotenuse:

7^2 + 8^2 = x^2

49 + 64 = x^2 add like terms

113 = x^2 find the root for both sides

$\sqrt{113}$ = x
