Answer:
4 1/14
Step-by-step explanation:
2 5/16=57/16
57/16*8/7=57/16 divided by 7/8
57/16*8/7=57/2*7=57/14=4 1/14
You need to use Pythagoras’ Theorem.
A² + B² = c² and c is the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.
The height of the tower (5 feet) is A and the distance from the end of the cable and the base of the tower (12 feet) is B. The length of ONE cable is c. So:
A² + B² = c²
5² + 12² = c²
25 + 144 = c²
169 = c²
13 = c. This is the length of one cable.
3 x 13 = 39 therefore the total length of the cables is 39 feet.

Answer:
84%
Step-by-step explanation:
each liter is 1000 cubic centimetre, so you have a total density of 3000, but instead think of 3 liters being 100% density and think of alcohol as 80% density, there are 4 times at much 80% than 100% liquid.
with 3 liters of alcohol, 3 liters of water is now 90% density or 0.9 gram per centimetre. add another 3 liters and it is 2/3, so the grams per centimetre would be 8.66667 or 8 2/3's
if you add another 3 liters, THEN it is 85%
add 12 liters in total and the final answer 84%
