Start by changing the white and brown sugar to where u can add it.

(1*3)/(4*3) =3/12

(2*4)/(3*4)=8/12

Add those

11/12 so she can top 11

Given 3 sides of a triangle - how to tell it right, acute, or obtuse 8,11, 16

user100 [1]

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can justify our answer.
if c^2 = a^2 + b^2 then triangle is right one,
if c^2 > a^2 + b^2 then triangle is obtuse and
if c^2 < a^2 + b^2 then triangle is acute triangle.

Here a=8, b=11 and c=16
Put these values in the equation
16^2 = 8 ^2 + 11^2
256 = 64 +121
256> 185
So here c^2 > a^2 + b^2 Which means triangle is obtuse triangle.

Answer: Obtuse Triangle

Expand and combine like terms.<br> (3c^4-5c^6)^2

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$9c^{8} -30c^{10} + 25c^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use formula (a-b)² = a² -2ab + b².

In our example a = 3c^4 and b = 5c^6

$(3c^{4} - 5c^{6})^{2} = [3c^{4} ]^{2} - 2*3c^{4} *5c^{6} + [5c^{6}]^{2}=\\=9c^{8} -30c^{10} + 25c^{12}$

Answer:

3 1/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

For focus-vertex distance p, the equation of the parabola can be written ...

y = x^2/(4p)

Here, we have p=8. We want to find the value of y when x=10 (the radius of the dish). That is ...

y = (10^2)/(4·8) = 100/32 = 3 1/8

The dish is 3 1/8 inches deep.
