Answer: 9 inches.
Do the pythagorean theorem to find your answer.
Formula: a^2 + b^2 = c2
12 = b
15 = c
a^2 + 12^2 = 15^2
Simplify the equation
a^2 + 144 = 225
Subtract 144 on both sides.
a^2 = 81
Square root of 81 is 9.
32 is closer to 33 than it is to 40
Let the steaks = X and the salmon = y.
Set up two equations:
15x + 18y = 559.81
19x + 9y = 583.66
Now using the elimination method:
Multiply the second equation by -2, then add the equations together.
(15x+18y=559.81)
−2(19x+9y=583.66)
Becomes:
15x+18y=559.81
−38x−18y=−1167.32
Add these equations to eliminate y:
−23x=−607.51
Divide both sides by -23 to solve for x:
x= -607.51 = -23 = 26.413478
Now you have the cost for a steak.
To solve for the cost of the salmon, replace x with the value in the first equation and solve for y.
15(26.413478) + 18y = 559.91
396.202174 + 18y = 559.81
Subtract 396.202174 from both sides:
18y = 163.607826
Divide both sides by 18:
y = 163.607826 / 18
y = 9.089324
Round both x and Y to the nearest cent:
X (Steaks) =$26.41
Y (Salmon) = $9.09
Question:
A hot air balloon has an altitude of 100 ½.
answer:
what’s the catch, is there anymore to this problem?
explanation:
therefore, I can’t help you, sorry.
Answer:
She needs 3/4 or 0.75 cups of sugar.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 = 2/4
2/4 + 1/4 = <em>3/4</em>
<em></em>
Then to get it as a fraction, you divide 3 by 4 and you get 0.75. Hope this helps!!
