Answer: x = 64

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First, order each of the three right triangles by the lengths of the sides.  Each triangle has a small (s) leg, a medium (m) leg, and a hypotenuse (h). You can determine their order visually.

Left Δ:    s = 36                  m = unknown            h = 60

Right Δ:  s = unknown       m = x                          h = unknown

Big Δ:     s = 60                  m = unknown            h = 36 + x

Next, notice that you can set up a proportion with the Left and Big triangles using the s and h. <em>We can't use m because it has two unknowns</em>.

\dfrac{s}{h}:\quad \dfrac{36}{60}=\dfrac{60}{36+x}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

36(36 + x) = 60(60)

1296 + 36x = 3600

           36x = 2304

               x = 64

A jogger traveled at the speed of 8 km/h for 15 minutes.How <br> far did she run
pickupchik [31]
The magic triangle is D and S and T where D is over S and T so if D is over s and t u dived and if the question is looking for D you would multiply S and T so 8 is the S i'm guessing and 15 is the T so ur gonna be looking for D so D=120 S=Speed D=Distance and T=time 
i hope i helped you good luck

Is there are 4 more girls than boys in ms. Raubs class of 28 students what is the ratio of girls to boys
Viefleur [7K]
The ratio of girls to boys would be  16:12 because if you divide 28 by 2 you get 14. subtract 2 to on one of them and add the two to the other. You get 12 and 16. There is a difference of 4 to them and when you add them together you get 28. :)

Ivan
D. 4.25 < 43/10 < 13/3 
     
4.25   = 4.25
43/10 = 4.3
13/3   = 4.33

4.25 < 4.3 < 4.33

212.35 into a fraction
Alla [95]

Answer: 212 7/20

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 212 is the whole number. So we need to convert .35 into a fraction in simplest form. Any decimal that has a hundredths place will be divided by 100 to get the fraction. In this case that fraction would be 35/100. And to convert that into simplest form, you need to find the least (or lowest) common denominator which is 5. Then you divide the numerator and denominator by 5 and get 7/20, so your answer is 212 7/20
