Total weight = 12
weight of box =3
12 - 3 = 9 lbs of candles
So how many times does .75 or 3/4 go into 9? 
9/.75= 12, so 12 candles were shipped

12 candles were shipped. x × 3/4 = 9 + 3.
X = 12

A worker makes $ 600,000 a month, how much do you earn in a year?
Minchanka [31]
If a worker makes 600,000 a month, we can multiply that to 12, since there are 12 months in a year. 600,000 x 12 = 72,000,00, so the worker makes $72,000,00 a year. :)

Find the length of a rectangular lot with a perimeter of 50 feet if the length is five feet more than the width.
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Width = 10 feet

Length = 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width = x feet

Length = x + 5

Perimeter = 50 feet

2 * ( length  + width) = 50

2 * (x+5 + x) = 50

       2x + 5 = 50/2

       2x + 5 = 25

               2x = 25 - 5 = 20

                 x = 20/2 = 10

Width = 10 feet

Length = 10 + 5 = 15 feet

I’m confused on this one
tatyana61 [14]

6\sqrt2

Why?

We have the isosceles right triangle. The length of legs are 6. Use the Pythagorean theorem:

h^2=6^2+6^2\\\\h^2=36+36\\\\h^2=36\cdot2\to h=\sqrt{36\cdot2}\\\\h=\sqrt{36}\cdot\sqrt2\\\\h=6\sqrt2

In general, the formula for calculating the hypotenuse in an isosceles right triangle is h=a\sqrt2

a - a leg, h - a hypotenuse
