Answer:
x = 2root(22)
see image.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle shown is one big triangle cut into two more smaller triangles: one medium-sized and one smaller.
ALL THREE TRIANGLES ARE SIMILAR BY AA.
Set the two smaller triangles up so you can see the corresponding sides. x is the short leg in one triangle and it is the long leg in the smallest triangle. Set up a proportion.
22/x = x/4
crossmultiply
x^2 = 22•4
x^2 = 88
square root both sides.
x = sqroot(88)
x = 2sqroot(22)
see image.
C is the answer to you question
7 hours + 6 hours + 6 hours
=19 hours
12 minutes + 46 minutes + 53 minutes
=111 minutes
=1 hour 51 minutes
19 hours + 1 hour and 51 minutes is 20 hours and 51 minutes. This is the total time.
Average time = total time/number of deliveries
(20 and 51/60) divided by 3
=6.95 hours
= 6 hours and 57 minutes
<span>We will start using a new way to indicate simplifying fractions. When a numerator or
a denominator gets simplified, we will cross it out with a slash and write the new
numerator or denominator next to it (either above it or below it).</span><span>The number you divide by (the 4) does not get indicated in any way! You only
think about it in your mind: “I divide 12 by 4, and get 3. I divide 20 by 4, and get 5.”</span><span>You may not see any advantage over the “old” method yet, but this shortcut will
come in handy soon.</span> <span />
