Mary's house is approximately 49.73 miles from her grandmother's house.
The distances the three drove were;
Mary drove for 49.73 miles, Theo drove 50 miles and Nancy drove 53.299 miles.
Explanation:
- The given triangle has a 13 mile long adjacent side, a 48 mile long opposite side and the distance of Mary's route is the hypotenuse. As we have two sides of the triangle, we can solve for the length of the other side by using Pythagoras' theorem.
- Assume the hypotenuse of the triangle measures x miles. According to Pythagoras theorem, x = √(13² + 48²) , x = √169 + 2,304 x = √2,473 = 49.729. Rounding this off, we get Mary's route was 49.73 miles long.
- Nancy drove √2,840 miles = 53.2916 miles.
- So Mary drove the shortest distance of 49.73 miles, second shortest was Theo who drove for 50 miles and the longest was Nancy who drove for 53.299 miles.
Answer:6x+36, 5x+5, 10x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of cats to dogs is 15 to 10 there are 10 dogs.
6 - p....p = 1.5
6 - 1.5 = 4.5
TRUE...because when u sub in 1.5 for p, the difference is 4.5, which is less then 5.
(30)(420) = 12000 - 600
12600 = 11400...incorrect
FALSE...because the product of 30 and 420 does not equal 600 less then 12000
16.3 + 11.9 < 27
28.2 < 27..incorrect
FALSE...because the sum of 16.3 and 11.9 is greater then 27
