Answer:
5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
I used the pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) to find the answer. I put 3 in a and 4 in b. I squared them and got 9 + 16 = 25. I found the square root of 25 which is 5 and that is my answer.
Answer:
<em>Sherita would need to make 10 free throws</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
Sherita made 46 of her first 60 free throws in this basketball season. Calculating the average we get:

Sherita wants to have a free throw average of at least 80% in her next x free throws. This means she will have 46+x made throws out of 60+x total throws. For this new performance, the new average would be:

And we equate it to 80% (0.8 in decimal):

Multiplying by 60+x:

Operating:

Subtracting 46 and 0.8x:
0.2x=2
Dividing by 0.2
x = 10
Sherita would need to make 10 free throws
36/300
try simplifying it
12/100
6/50
3/25
then un-simplify it so that 100 is the denominator
12/100
.12
5/2 = 8/x
5x = 16
x = 16/5
x = 3.2 or 3 1/5 fish
Answer:
20 - 12x = 48 answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the whole equation by 4. Use 4 because that is the denominator of the fraction 3/4. You want to get rid of the fraction.
4(5 - 3/4 x = 12)
20 - 12x = 48
