How was the Pythagorean theorem derived

Mathematics
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago

The theorem states that: "The square on the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the two legs" (Eves 80-81). This theorem is talking about the area of the squares that are built on each side of the right triangle.

Caroline, Colin & Sarah share some money. Caroline gets 1 /9 of the money. Colin and Sarah share the rest in the ratio 1:3.
laiz [17]

Answer:

Colin gets  \frac{2}{9} of the total money

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let the total amount be "90" (or any multiple of 9), then the solution gets much easy.

Let total money be 90.

Caroline gets 1/9, so that is:

1/9 * 90 = 10

Remaining is 90 - 10 = 80

This 80 is divided in the ratio 1:3, that means Colin gets 1 part and Sarah gets 3 part. That is 1 + 3 = 4 parts altogether.

80 divided in 4 parts is 80/4 = 20 each part.

Colin gets 1 part, that is 1 * 20 = 20

Colin gets 20 OUT OF 90 (total initial).

<em>What proportion is that? We simply divide and reduce!!</em>

<em />

20/90 = 2/9

Colin gets  \frac{2}{9} of the total money

Nancie and Suresh are typing. The rate at which Nancie is typing is represented by the equation y = 35x, where x is the time in
Novosadov [1.4K]
I think you might have forgotten to add Suresh typing speed table....

Time (min)                  Total words 
0.5                                   28
3                                    168
14                                   784

We can easily obtain Suresh typing speed by dividing Total Words/Time

Time (min)                  Total words               Speed (Words/min)
0.5                                   28                                         56
3                                    168                                         56
14                                   784                                        56

And we know that Nancie's typing speed is 35 Words/ min

So, Nancie's rate is less than Suresh's/

Two types of sandwiches were made for a tea party. 55% of the sandwiches were cheese sandwiches and the rest were chicken sandwi
DedPeter [7]

To solve this problem, the formula can be used

I = P / T

Where I is the fraction of the sample

P is the amount of the sample

T is the total amount of sample

Since P = 252 chicken sandwiches and I = 0.55

And solve for T

T = 252 / 0.52

<span>T = 458 sandwiches in total</span>
