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

Determine whether the given lengths can be sides of a right triangle. Which of the following are true statements. A.The lengths
Stels [109]

Answer:

Given sides 12, 16 and 20 can be the sides of right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides of right triangle always follow the Pythagoras theorem.

i.e (base)^2 + (Height)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2

For the given Lengths 7, 40 and 41

We need to check if

7^2 + 40^2 =41^2 \\or\\ 7^2 + 40^2 \neq41^2

Since \\7^2 + 40^2 = 1649\\and \\41^2 = 1681

That means, \\ 7^2 + 40^2 \neq 41^2

hence 7,40 and 41 can not be the sides of right triangle.

Next,

Given sides 12,16 and 20.

Again follow the similar process used in the above problem.

12^2 + 16^2 =400\\And \\20^2 = 400\\Since 12^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

Therefore given sides 12,16 and 20 can be the sides of right triangle.
