Answer:

<h3>            These numbers are 3 and 9</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x - smaller number

3x - three times the smaller number = the larger number

2×3x - twice the targer number

2×3x+3x  - twice the larger is added to three times the smaller

2×3x + 3x = 27

6x + 3x = 27

  9x = 27

 ÷9     ÷9

   x = 3

3x = 3×3 = 9

3 RIGHT TRIANGLES

1 big right triangle is divided into 2 smaller ones. Medium and small.

<span> a.How far is the spot on the beach from the parking lot? </span>

Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = x

Small triangle: long leg = x ; short leg = 18m

32/x = x/18

32*18 = x*x

576 = x²

√576 = √x²

24 = x    

Parking lot to the beach is 24 meters.

<span>b. How far will he have to walk from the parking lot to get to the refreshment stand?</span>

Use Pythagorean theorem:

Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = 24 m ; hypotenuse = ?

32²+ 24² = c²

1024 + 576 = c²

1600 = c²

√1600 = √c²

40 m = c

Parking lot to refreshment stand is 40 meters.
