of the triangle's other leg?

Answer: 12.65 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagoras theorem,

a^2 + b^2= c^2

You are given the hypotenuse , which is c and another leg which is either a or b, does not particularly matter- rearrange to find the missing length

c^2 - b^2 = a^2

14^2 - 6^2 = 160

Square root 160 to find the missing length

12.65

Hope this helped :)

jeka57 [31]
If each goldfish cost $0.98 simply multiply this by the amount of fish bought:

(0.98)(12)
= 11.76

At a concert 30% of the audience were tennnagers. If there was a total of 1600 audience members, how many of the audience were n
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Not teenagers = 1120

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of audience members = 1600

30% of the audience were teenagers.

It means 70% of the audience were not teenagers. It can be given by :

x = 70% of 1600

x=\dfrac{70}{100}\times 1600\\\\x=1120

Hence, 1120 audiences were not teenagers.

Joan pays 456.25 monthly on her mortgage. If her annual insurance premium is 1,560 and her annual real estate tax is 1,890, what
defon
The combined payment is 743.75.

The annual amount of insurance is 1560.  Dividing this by 12 gives us the monthly amount paid:
1560/12 = 130.

The annual real estate taxes are 1890.  Dividing this by 12 gives us the monthly amount paid:
1890/12 = 157.50

We add these to the monthly mortgage payment to find the total amount:
456.25+130+157.50 = 743.75

Find the surface area of the pyramid.<br> 64in^2 <br> 56in^2 <br> 88in^2<br> 118in^2
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

To find the surface area of this pyramid, we must find the <u>area</u> of one <u>triangle</u> flap which we then <u>multiply by 4</u> because there are 4 of those equal triangle flaps surrounding the base(square). Once we find the area of those triangles, we then find the <u>base(square)'s area</u>. Next, we add all those areas together to get the result of the surface area.

Formula for area of triangle;

A = BH x 1/2

Where 'B' represents the base, 'H' represents the height, and 1/2 is just dividing the product of those two lengths by 2.

Plug in what you know, given that the base of one triangle is 4, and the height is 6.

A = 4(6) x 1/2

A = 24 x 1/2

A = 24/2

A = 12, the area of <em>one triangle is 12 inches</em>.

Now, we find the area of all the triangles by multiplying the area of one triangle by 4.

12 = Area of triangle

4 triangles in total, so:

12(4)

= <u>48 inches</u> is the <u>area</u> of <u>all the triangles</u>.

Now we find the area of the base(square) using the formula;

(vol of square formula)
A = s^{2}

Where 's' represents one side of the square which is being squared.

or

A = l · w

Where 'l' represents the length and 'w' represents the width.

Plug in what you know, given that one side of the square is 4 inches (as well as the length and width).

(I'll be using the formula s^{2})

A = s^{2}

A = 4^2 ← (The symbol ' ^ ' means raised to the power of.)

A = 16, the <u>area</u> of the <u>base(square)</u> is <u>16 inches</u>.

Now we add both areas together:-

48 + 16

= <u>64 inches^2</u> is the surface area, your answer is A.

Kamil and Sean share some money in the ratio 3:5. Sean gets $56 more than Kamil. How much do they get each?
liq [111]
Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).

Kamil and Sean are in the ratio:        3:5

That means:    x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5

x / (x + 56) = 3/5

5*x = 3*(x + 56)

5x = 3*x + 3*56

5x = 3x + 168

5x - 3x = 168

2x = 168

x = 168 / 2

x = 84

Therefore Kamil had, x = 84,  and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 =  140

Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140
