Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem here:

30² = (3x)² + (4x)², or:

30² = 9x² + 16x² = 25x²

Taking the square root of both sides, we get √(30)² = √(25x²), or:

30 = ± 5x

Neglect -5x, since we are measuring distances, and distances are positive.

Then 5x = 30, and so x = 6

Thus, 3x = 3(6) = 18

Mrac [35]

The Dowers need to make 5 pies for 15 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

1 person = 3 slices of pie

15 persons = 15*3 = 45 slices of pie

It is also given that;

9 slices of pie = 1 whole pie

1 slice of pie = $\frac{1}{9}\ pie$

45 slices of pie = $\frac{1}{9}*45$

45 slices of pie = 5 whole pies

The Dowers need to make 5 pies for 15 people.
