15 apples mean 100%
3 appl. mean   x %
------------------------------------

 x = 3*100/15 = 300/15 = 20%

x = 20%

so jamie eat 20% of the apples 

hope this will help you

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! A contractor has 34 meters of fencing that he is going to use as the perimeter of a rectangular garden.
snow_tiger [21]

Given

Shape of garden: Rectangle

Perimeter: 34 meters

Area: 72 square meters

Length of one side = x

Required

Find the dimension of the rectangle

Let the length of the other side of the rectangle be represented with y.

We start by writing out the perimeter of a rectangle

Perimeter, P = 2(L + B)

Where P is the perimeter; L and B are the length and width of the sides of the rectangle.

In this case L and B are represented by x and y

So,

P = 2(x + y)

By substituting 34 for P

34 = 2(x + y)

Multiply both sides by ½

½ * 34 = ½ * 2(x + y)

17 = x + y

Make y the subject of formula

y = 17 - x

Recall that the sides of the rectangle are represented by x and y.

Hence, the area of the rectangle is as follows.

Area = x * y

Substitute 72 for Area and 17 - x for y

72 = x(17 - x) --- Open bracket

72 = 17x - x² ---- Reorder

x² - 17x + 72 = 0

Now, we have a quadratic equation

Solving by factorisation

x² - 8x - 9x + 72 = 0

x(x - 8) - 9(x - 8) = 0

(x - 8)(x - 9) = 0

x - 8 = 0 or x - 9 = 0

x = 8 or x = 9

Recall that

y = 17 - x.

When x = 8

y = 17 - 8

y = 9

When x = 9

y = 17 - 9

y = 8

Writing out the result, we have

x = 8 , y = 9

Or

x = 9, y = 8

Hence, the dimension of the rectangle is 8 metres by 9 metres

Solve problem A and B please!!
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

a. Isosceles + Acute

b. Scalene + Right

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The side markers show that 2 sides are equivalent in length, making it isosceles. The angles are all noticeably under 90 degrees, resulting in it being acute.

b. There are no side markers whatsoever, making it scalene. There is a right angle marker, resulting in the triangle being right.
