Multiplying a - and a + equals a - , -8r18
1 gallon = $3 so the ratio would be 1:3 where 1 would represent the gallon and 3 the price
Answer:
Total earned= $850
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
David makes 17 dollars in an hour and works 25 hours each week Linda makes 25 dollars in an hour and works 17 hours.
<u>To calculate the total earned, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Total earned= 17*25 + 25*17
Total earned= $850
From the two right triangles, you can write the following equations using the Pythagorean theorem. Let's call that shared leg in the middle "y"
y^2 + b^2 = a^2
y^2 + c^2 = x^2
y^2 + b^2 = a^2
re-write this to get "y" alone for substitution.
y^2 = a^2 - b^2
substitute (a^2 - b^2) for y^2 in the other equation. y^2 + c^2 = x^2
a^2 - b^2 + c^2 = x^2
Now put in the values given for a,b,c to solve for x
(7.1)^2 - (5.6)^2 + (5.7)^2 = x^2
51.54 = x^2
square root
7.2 = x
