Answer:

160 jars

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many jars were used, we just need to divide the amount of stuff by the amount of stuff a jar can hold.

400 (the amount of peanut number in pounds) / 2.5 (the amount of peanut butter each jar can hold) = 160.

So, 160 jars were used to package the 400 pounds of peanut butter.

Answer:

For right angle triangle,

we use Pythagoras theorem that is:

$c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}$

c = $\sqrt{a^{2} +b^{2} }$

For question 1:

c = ?

a = 40

b = 9

putting them in formula,

c = $\sqrt{40^{2} + 9^{2} }$

c = 41

For question 2:

c = ?

a = 12

b = 13

putting them in formula,

c = $\sqrt{12^{2} + 13^{2} }$

c = approximately 17.69181

For question 3:

c = 35

a = 20

b = ?

putting them in formula,

$c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}$

$35^{2} = 20^{2} + b^{2}$

1225 = 400 + $b^{2}$

$b^{2}$ = 1225 - 400

$b^{2}$ = 825

$\sqrt{b^{2} } = \sqrt{825}$

b = 5 $\sqrt{33}$

For question 4:

c = 37

a = 20

b = ?

putting them in formula,

$c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}$

$37^{2} = 20^{2} + b^{2}$

1369 = 400 + $b^{2}$

$b^{2}$ = 1369 - 400

$b^{2}$ = 969

Taking square root on both sides

b = 31.12

Hope it helps.

Answer:

Are we stopping the problem of it not tasting like cucumber or the problem that you're eating it...?
