You are told 2/9 = 16

Let total number of batteries = x

So you now have 2/9x = 16

To find x divide both sides by 2/9

X = 72 total batteries

Answer:

13. 1/2, 5/8, 3/4

16. 7/12, 3/5, 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

make them have the same denominator.

13) 1/2 x 4 = 4/8, 5/8, 3/4 x 2= 6/8

16) Grab two fractions let's say 3/5 and 2/3

Multiply 3/5 denominator (5) with 2/3 numerator (2)

It's 10 and place it above the number you multiplied the numerator from so it's above 2/3. Do it again but with 2/3 denominator (3) and 3/5 numerator (3). Multiply 3 and 3 you get 9. Place the 9 above 3/5. We know that 9 is less than 10 so 3/5 is less than 2/3. You can do this with any two fractions.

Find the value of x. help with geometry pls

Ivan

Answer:

Find the value of x:-

To find Y, use Pythagorean theorem:- $c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}$

$(2.1)^{2} =y^{2} +(1.4)^{2}$

$2.1^{2}=4.41$

$1.4^{2} =1.96$

$4.41=y^{2} +1.96$

subtract 1.96 from both sides

$2.45=y^{2}$

$y=1.5652$

Now, to find x:-

$x=y+y$

$= 1.5632+1.5652$

$x=3.1 \: ft$

the description of a TV is based on the diagonal length. if the height of a TV is 10 inches and the width is 7 inches, what is t

borishaifa [10]

To calculate it use pythagoras: a^2+b^2=c^2
7^2+10^2=49+100=149

calculate the square root: $\sqrt{149}=12.2$
so the diagonal is about 12.2 inches long
