Answer:

Billy is incorrect. The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure to better understand the problem

Let

x ----> the number of apples

y ----> the number of peppers

we have

x=3\ apples

y=1\ peppers

The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is equal to

\frac{x}{y}

substitute

\frac{3}{1}

therefore

Billy is incorrect. The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is 3:1

Answer for the first one - it's complicated, but that maths is correct

I kind of cheated and did it a different way than they'd expect. By doing 24 squared, that gives you 576. 

since both angles are 45 degrees, then the sides are equal lengths. Therefore x squared times 2 = 576.

Because of this, x squared = 576 divided by 2, which equals 288.
Therefore the square root of 288 = 12 square root 2

The table shows the average weight of animals. How many more tons does a blue whale weigh than an African elephant? Explain how
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The African elephant weighs <u>111.5 tons</u> less than a blue whale.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Animal                         Weight(pounds)

African Elephant            15,000

Blue Whale                   238,000

Now, to find the weight of how more tons does a blue whale weigh than an African elephant.

As given, 1 ton = 2,000 pounds.

So, to convert the weight from pound to tons by dividing:

African elephant =15000\div 2000=7.5\ tons.

Blue whale =238000\div 2000=119\ tons.

Now, to get the weight of how more tons is blue whale weigh than an African elephant we subtract:

Blue\ whale - African\ elephant

=119 tons-7.5tons

=111.5\ tons

Therefore, the African elephant weighs 111.5 tons less than a blue whale.
