Answer:

10.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of salt in one liter is 1.2 ounces, meaning to make one pound (16 oz) it would take 13 1/3 liters of water.

For 2.5 pounds, it would be 2.5*16, or 40-- 40 liters for 2.5 pounds of salt.

40 liters in (U.S.) gallons is 40/ (approximately) 3.785 , or 10.5680, 10.6

need help.    solve for y.  try factoring first if not possible or difficult use quadratic formula.               y²-6y+6=0
lbvjy [14]
y^2-6y+6=0\\ \\a=1 , \ b=-6, \ c=6 \\ \\\Delta =b^2-4ac = (-6)^2 -4\cdot1\cdot6 = 36-24=12\\ \\\sqrt{\Delta }= \sqrt{12}=\sqrt{4\cdot 3}=2\sqrt{3} \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{6-2\sqrt{3}}{2 }=\frac{2( 3- \sqrt{3})}{2}= 3- \sqrt{3}

x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{6+2\sqrt{3}}{2 }=\frac{2( 3+ \sqrt{3})}{2}= 3+ \sqrt{3}

Need help with 7A plz
Eduardwww [97]
A) area of square = base*height/////Triangle= 0.5*base*height

=(a^1/3*b^3/4)*(a^2/3*b^1/2)+(1/2*a^1/3*b^3/4*a^2/3*b^1/4)
=(a^1*b^5/4)+(1/2*a^1*b^1)
=(a*b^5/4)+(1/2*a*b)

B) a^2+b^2=c^2 (pythagorean theorem)
   ((27^2/3)*(16^1/4))^2 +  (27^1/3)*(16^3/4)   
     (9*2=(18^2))=324 +  (3*8= 24^2)= 576
      324+576= 900
     (900)^1/2= 30
hypotenuse= 30

C)( a^2/3*b^1/2)= 36*2(two sides)= 72
    (a^1/3b^3/4)=24
    (a^2/3*b^1/4)= 18
  72+24+18+30(hypotenuse)= 144=perimeter

Triangles QVS and RTS are similar. Find side VS.
tekilochka [14]

In order to solve the equation, set up a proportion. Use the similar sides together!

1. 16/8 = x/20.... Similar sides are in one ratio and they equal another ratio...."x" represents the side of VS

2.Solve for "x" by cross multiplying: 8x = 320

3. Divide by 8 to find "x": x = 40

Side VS equals 40. Hope this helped :)
