Answer:

The answer to your question is  4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Side AC = 6 ft

Side CB = 8 ft

hypotenuse = ?

difference = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean theorem

c = hypotenuse

a = short leg

b = long leg

                      c² = a² + b²

-Substitution

                      c² = 6² + 8²

-Simplification

                       c² = 36 + 64

                       c² = 100

-Result

                       c = 10 ft

2.- Calculate the difference between the hypotenuse and the shorter leg.

    difference = 10 - 6

                      = 4 ft

Mickey said that 45.7654 rounded to the nearest thousandth is 45.765 and Nicole said that it was 45.766. Who is correct and why?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Mickey

Step-by-step explanation:

Mickey is correct because if you look at the number 45.7654 whenever you round to the nearest thousandth it'll be 45.765

5 is the thousandth place so look to the right. If the number to the right is greater than 5 it'll round to 47.766 but since it's a four ti rounds down.

andre [41]

Answer:

August made the recipe using the <em>incorrect</em> ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Sally's recipe is a combination of lemonade and fruit

- Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of fruit

∵ Sally uses 6 cups of lemonade for every 8 cups of fruit

∴ The ratio of sally recipe is 6 : 8

- Simplify the terms of the ratio by divide them by 2

∴ The ratio of sally recipe is 3 : 4

- August made a recipe with 35 cups of liquid total

- He made 15 cups of them lemonade

∵ The total number of cups August made is 35

∵ 15 of them are lemonade

∴ The number of fruit cups = 35 - 15 = 20 cups

∵ August mad 15 cups of lemonade for every 20 cups of fruit

∴ The ratio of August recipe is 20 : 15

- Simplify the terms of the ratio by divide them by 5

∴ The ratio of August recipe is 4 : 3

∵ The ratio of Sally recipe is 3 : 4

∵ The ratio of August recipe is 4 : 3

∵ The ratio 3 : 4 ≠ the ratio 4 : 3

∴ August made the recipe using the <em>incorrect</em> ratio
