Answer: the cost of one medium sized jug is $60

the cost of one large sized jug is $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one medium sized jug.

Let y represent the cost of one large sized jug.

Jack bought 2 medium sized jugs and 3 large sized jugs for 150 dollars. This means that

2x + 3y = 150 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Jill bought 4 medium jugs and 12 large jugs for 360 dollars. This means that

4x + 12y = 360 - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

8x + 12y = 600

8x + 24y = 720

Subtracting, it becomes

- 12y = - 120

y = - 120/ - 12

y = 10

Substituting y = 10 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 3 × 10 = 150

2x + 30 = 150

2x = 150 - 30 = 120

x = 120/2 = 60

The length of two sides of a right triangle are given. Find the length of the third side. Round to the nearest tenth if necessar
mezya [45]
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 You must apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

 a) Taking 28 inches as the hypotenuse of the right triangle (the largest side), you have:

 a^2=b^2+c^2

 Where "a" is the hypotenuse, and "b" and "c" are the other sides of the right triangle.

 Then, you have:

 a=28 inches
 b=15 inches

 c^2=a^2-b^2 
 c=√(a^2-b^2)
 c=23.6

 Therefore, the answer is: 23.6 inches

 
a) Taking 28 inches as a one the other sides that are smaller than the hypotenuse, you have:

 a=√(b^2+c^2)

 Where "a" is the hypotenuse

 a=31.8 inches

  The answer is: 31.8 inches

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

If this number is larger than 6, then its square is larger than 36.

If x > 6, then x² > 36

The number is not larger than 6.therefore Its square is not larger than 36.

x ≤ 6; therefore, x² ≤ 36

-7 is < 6; however -7² > 36 as -7² = 49
