Answer:

Bob the builder need 180 kg sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of concrete mixture is 480 kg. It is given that concrete is made by mixing cement, sand and gravel in the ratio 1:3:4.

Let the amount of cement, sand and gravel in concrete mixture be x, 3x, 4x respectively.

x+3x+4x=480

8x=480

Divide both sides by 8.

x=60

The amount of sand is 3x, so

3\times 60=180

Therefore bob the builder need 180 kg sand.

1x+3x+4x = 480

8x = 480

xdivide by 8

x=60

cement: 1x = 60kg

sand : 3x = 3*60 = 180kg

gravel : 4x = 4*60 = 240kg

Given: △KLM, LM=20 3
egoroff_w [7]

Split the triangle into a 30-60-90 triangle. Since you have LM from that triangle, you can figure out the other sides. Then, using the leg from that triangle, the one next to it is a 45-45-90 triangle, meaning it's isosceles.

KM = 30 + 10√3

KL = 10√6

(sorry i'm not too sure if my "reasons" for statement/reason is correct)

|AC| = 2|DE|
⇒
4x - 2 = 2(x + 6) = 2x + 12
2x = 14
x = 7
⇒
|AC| = 26

points given are
(1,1)
(5,6)
x1=1
y1=1
x2=5
y2=6
D=\sqrt{(1-5)^{2}+(1-6)^{2}}
