Hey there! I'm happy to help!
A militia is a local army. During the Battle of Lexington and Concord, the local militia (called minutemen), the militia outnumbered the British at Concord and chased them all the way back to Boston. The militia aided in many American victories during the Revolutionary War.
I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
The problem deals with fractions comparison, lets do it:
21/30 > 2/3
we begin solving:
21 > (2/3)*30
21 > 2*10
<span>21 > 20
</span>therefore the proposed inequality is true, <span>21/30 > 2/3
You can solve as well getting same denominator for both fractions and comparing directly, in this case we need to get 2/3 to be divided by 30:
2/3 = (10/10)(2/3) = 20/30
So we have:
</span><span>21/30 > 2/3
</span>which is equal to:
<span>21/30 > 20/30
</span>and we compare directly because both fractions are divided by the same number, and we can see that the inequality is true.
Answer:
384
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply all those numbers together
It should be 12 ft away from the wall. Not 4 ft. You do not just subtract the difference because as you pull it away from the wall, the ladder is mostly moving horizontally with only a small vertical change.
You can use Pythagorean Theorem to find the answer. Think of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the wall and the ground as the legs.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
16^2 + b^2 = 20^2
b^2 = 20^2 - 16^2
b^2 = 144
b = 12 ft
<h2>1210 cubic feet</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial dimensions of the storeroom were 
length, 
width and 
height.
The room is in the shape of a cuboid. Volume of a cuboid = 
, where 
are the length, width and height of the cuboid.
So, Volume of storeroom initially = 
Finally, the length was increased to 
and width to 
.
Final volume of storeroom = 
Increase in volume = 
∴ 1210 cubic feet of storage was added.
