Answer:
Her error was multiplying numerator by numerator ( that is Quantity of Bone-shaped treats)
Step-by-step explanation:
Sarah's calculation
Let
x = cost of 12 Bone-shaped treats
Quantity of Bone-shaped treats : price
5 : 3.5 = 12 : x
(5/3.5) = (12/x)
Cross product
3.5x=60 (Here is her error)
x=17.14
Correct calculation
Quantity of Bone-shaped treats : price
5 : 3.5 = 12 : x
5 / 3.5 = 12 / x
Cross product
5 * x = 3.5 * 12
5x = 42
x = 42 / 5
= 8.4
x = $8.4
Her error was multiplying numerator by numerator ( that is Quantity of Bone-shaped treats)
Instead of multiplying Quantity of Bone-shaped treats by cost
Answer:
b = 7√3
Step-by-step explanation:
This 30°- 60°- 90° triangle has the proportions:
side opposite of the 30° angle = x
side opposite of the 60° angle = x√3
side opposite of the 90° angle = 2x
____________________________
Given the side opposite of the 30° angle which is 7 units long, this can be thought of as x. Knowing the proportions of the other sides, we can find b knowing that this is the side opposite of the 60° angle which is x√3.
Since x = 7, x√3 = 7√3, and therefore
b = 7√3.
