Answer:

1000 g of rice

Step-by-step explanation:

Recipe states that every 400g of rice feeds 2 people. Thus, it can be concluded through division (400 ÷ 2) that every person is fed with 200g of rice.

If you want to feed 5 people, then multiply 200 (amount of grams that feeds 1 person) by 5 (the number of people)

200 × 5 = 1000

1000 grams of rice is needed for 5 people.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 15cm, and the shorter leg is 9cm. Find the length of the other leg

pishuonlain [190]

Hello!

If you add up the squares of the two legs, it will equal the square of the hypotenuse. As we already have the hypotenuse, we will subtract.

225-81=144

Now we find the square root.

√144=12

Therefore, the other leg is 12 cm long.

I hope this helps!
