3 quarts, because 12 is how many cups you have, and there are 4 cups in a quart. 12/4 is 3, so 3 quarts.

Complete the math in the brackets (4a + 1)

Multiple each term in the brackets by 4a

4a (8a - 4a + 1)
4a (4a + 1)
16a^2 + 4a

3 - what = 11<br><br> please help with this one

SOVA2 [1]

So we can set up a simple equation for this, where the word “what” is a variable, x. This equation is 3 - x=11. Then we subtract 3 from both sides, giving us -x=8. We can divide both sides by -1, giving us x=-8. The answer would be -8. Hope this helped.

Given: △ACM, m∠C=90°, CP ⊥ AM

larisa86 [58]

Answer: The answer is $3\dfrac{4}{7}.$

Step-by-step explanation: Given in the question that ΔAM is a right-angled triangle, where ∠C = 90°, CP ⊥ AM, AC : CM = 3 : 4 and MP - AP = 1. We are to find AM.

Let, AC = 3x and CM = 4x.

In the right-angled triangle ACM, we have

$AM^2=AC^2+CM^2=(3x)^2+(4x)^2=9x^2+16x^2=25x^2\\\\\Rightarrow AM=5x.$

Now,

$AM=AP+PM=AP+(AP+1)\\\\\Rightarrow 2AP=AM-1\\\\\Rightarrow 2AP=5x-1.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(A)$

Now, since CP ⊥ AM, so ΔACP and ΔMCP are both right-angled triangles.

So,

$CP^2=AC^2-AP^2=CM^2-MP^2\\\\\Rightarrow (3x)^2-AP^2=(4x)^2-(AP+1)^2\\\\\Rightarrow 9x^2-AP^2=16x^2-AP^2-2AP-1\\\\\Rightarrow 2AP=7x^2-1.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(B)$

Comparing equations (A) and (B), we have

$5x-1=7x^2-1\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=7x^2\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{5}{7},~\textup{since }x\neq 0.$

Thus,

$AM=5\times\dfrac{5}{7}=\dfrac{25}{7}=3\dfrac{4}{7}.$
