Answer: The plane travel approximately 806 miles.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Johnny is in Nebraska and needs to go to Texas, which is about 700 miles due south. From there, he will head east to Louisiana, about 400 miles from where he arrived in Texas.

So while he is traveling, a plane takes off from Nebraska and flies to Louisiana , it will make a right triangle such that the distance he travel from Nebraska to Louisiana will become hypotenuse of the triangle.

Let H be the distance plane travel from Nebraska to Louisiana

By Pythagoras theorem, we have

H^2=700^2+400^2\\\Rightarrow\ H^2=490000+160000\\\Rightarrow\ H^2=650000\\\Rightarrow\ H=\sqrt{650000}\\\Rightarrow\ H=806.22577483\approx806

Hence, The plane travel approximately 806 miles.

Suatu jenis roti memerlukan 150 gram tepung dan 50 gram mentega. Roti jenis lain memerlukan 75 gram tepung dan 75 gram mentega,
Katena32 [7]
Let the one type of the bread be bread A
The second type of the bread be bread B

Let the flour be 'f' and the butter be 'b'

We need 150f + 50b for bread A and 75f + 75b for bread B

We can compare the amount of flour and bread needed for each bread and write them as ratio

FLOUR

Bread A : Bread B
150 : 75
2 : 1

We have a total of 2250gr of flour, and this amount is to be divided into the ratio of 2 parts : 1 part. There is a total of 3 parts. 

2250 ÷ 3 = 750 gr for one part then multiply back into the ratio to get

Bread A : Bread B = (2×750) : (1×750) = 1500 : 750


BUTTER

Bread A : Bread B = 50 : 75 = 2 : 3

The amount of butter available, 1250 gr is to be divided into 2 parts : 3 parts.
There are 5 parts in total

1250 ÷ 5 = 250 gr for one part, then multiply this back into the ratio 

Bread A: Bread B = (2×250) : (3×250) = 500 : 750

Hence, for bread A we need 1500 gr of flour and 500 gr of butter, and for bread B, we need 750 gr of flour and 750 gr of butter.
