15. [4] insufficient information. only given SA
16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²
combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85
rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9
Answer:
C . Sample : 6 boy and 7 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
Data :
Boys = 150
Girls = 175
So ratio between boys and girls
175/150 = 1.67

Answer:
Carmen bought 5 pounds of coffee
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of buying coffee is $8.44 per pound. Let us assume she bought x pound of coffee, this means that she spent $8.44x on coffee.
She went to the coffee store with $80 gift card and left with $37.80, this means that after spending $8.44x from the initial $80, she had $37.80. To find the number of pounds she bought, we are to use the following equation:
80 - 8.44x = 37.80
8.44x = 80 - 37.80
8.44x = 42.2
x = 42.2/ 8.44 = 5
x = 5 pounds.
