Answer:

$ 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of tie ( in dollars ),

∵ The  shirt costs $21 more than the tie,

So, the cost of shirt = x + 21

Thus, the cost of a tie and a shirt = x + x + 21 = 2x + 21,

According to the question,

2x + 21 = 57

2x = 57 - 21

2x = 36

x = 18

Hence, the cost of the shirt = 18 + 12 = $ 30

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a shape with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as isosceles, equilateral, scalene, obtuse, acute and right angled.

In a right angled triangle, the side with the longest length is known as the hypotenuse and this sides is always opposite to the right angle (90 degrees). Pythagoras states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the remaining sides.

a) u² = h² + b²  (1)

t² = h² + a²     (2)

(a + b)² = t² + u²

(a + b)² = (h² + a²) + (h² + b²)

a² + b² + 2ab = 2h² + a² + b²

2h² = 2ab

h² = ab = 5(3) = 15

u² = h² + b² = 15 + 3² = 24

u = √24

b) u² = h² + b²  (1)

t² = h² + a²     (2)

(a + b)² = t² + u²

(a + b)² = (h² + a²) + (h² + b²)

a² + b² + 2ab = 2h² + a² + b²

2h² = 2ab

h² = ab = 4(2) = 8

h = √8

c) u² = h² + b²  (1)

t² = h² + a²     (2)

(a + b)² = t² + u²

(a + b)² = (h² + a²) + (h² + b²)

a² + b² + 2ab = 2h² + a² + b²

2h² = 2ab

h² = ab = 7(7) = 49

h = 7

u² = h² + b² = 7² + 7² = 98

u = √98

t² = h² + a² = 7² + 7²

t = √98

dangina [55]
9,150,000,000,000,000,000

the numbers should be

9.15\times10^{18}

or

9.15E18

because you move the point 18 places to obtain 9.15(the dot is initially at the end of the number)

56 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of gallons of water in the pool per minute;

750 divided by 35 = 150/7

Let the time needed to fill a 1,200 gallon pool be t.

t x 150/7 = 1,200

t x 21.42857142857143... = 1,200

t = 1,200/21.42857142857143

t = 56 mins
