Answer:
12√5
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the attached sketch, there are 2 triangles which we need to focus on, triangle A (in yellow) and triangle B (In red).
If you look at triangle A, we notice that X is the hypotenuse of triangle A. This means that X must be the largest length in triangle A, hence we can say that x must be greater than 24 (or 24 < x)
Now look at triangle B, in this case, they hypotenuse is 30 and x is the length of one of the sides. This means that x must be shorter than the hypotenuse (i.e x < 30)
from the 2 paragraphs above, we can see now that we can assemble an inequality in x
24 < x < 30
If we look at the choices, we can immediately ignore 33 because x must be less than 30,
working out the choices, we find that the only choice which falls into the range 24<x<30 is the 2nd choice 12√5 (= 26.83) (which is the answer)
The last 2 choices give values smaller than 24 and are hence cannot be the answer

Answer:
1. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
For question 1, you need to know the ratio between the recipe and the amount in question.
So if in the recipe, it says it uses 3/4 cup of diced ham, and the question uses 1 cup of diced ham, you can divide 1 by 3/4 to get 4/3. This is how many times bigger the amount used in the question than the recipe.
Then it asks for how many cups of potatoes, to do this, you look at the recipe and how many potatoes it uses: 3.5 cups
To solve it then, you just do 3.5 x 4/3 to get 4 cups of potatoes
There's your answer.
