Answer:

16 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the ratio

How about let's make this easier.  Easier is better, right?  Let's get rid of the fraction 2/3.  We will do that by multiplying 2/3 by 3 and 1 by 3 to get the equivalent ratio of

Now we need to know how many inches there would be if the number of feet is 24:

Cross multiply to get

3x = 48 so

x = 16 in.

A sidewalk forms the diagonal of a square park. The sidewalk is 30 meters long. To the nearest tenth of a meter, how long are th
PtichkaEL [24]
<span> <span>We can use the Pythagorean Theorem (A² + B² = C²) to solve for the lengths of the sides. We know that the diagonal, C, is 30 meters long, so C² = 900 meters. We know that since the park is square, A² + B² = 2A² = 2B²

900 = 2A²

A^2 = 450

Taking the square root of 450, we find that the lengths of A and B are roughly 21.2 meters.</span> </span>

Three friends, Ana, Jack and Nick come together to purchase a special from a pizza place. It is a half pepperoni, half mushrooms
maw [93]

Answer:

Paula would choose the side with all of the mushrooms and half of the pepperoni. She wont choose any sausage because she doesn't like it, but luckily David likes sausage twice as much as mushroom so he's fine with getting all of the sausage and half of the pepperoni. They both equally like pepperoni so it makes sense for them to share.
