Answer:

Use 3 times as many boxes of rice

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Using proportion

\frac{4}{13}\frac{boxes}{people}=\frac{x}{39}\frac{boxes}{people} \\ \\x=39*4/13\\ \\x=12\ boxes

original quantity of boxes ----->  4

boxes needed ----->  12

12=3*(4)

therefore

Use 3 times as many boxes of rice

Use the picture below to find the length of x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer: 6.71

=======================================

Work Shown:

The longest horizontal portion of length 6 breaks up into two equal pieces of length 3 each. Focus on the smaller right triangle on the right hand side. This right triangle has legs of 3 and 6. The hypotenuse is x.

Use the pythagorean theorem with a = 3, b = 6, c = x to find the value of x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 6^2 = x^2

9 + 36 = x^2

45 = x^2

x^2 = 45

x = sqrt(45)

x = 6.7082039

x = 6.71

Find the Value of the letter in the following questions. Give your answers to 3 s.f.
Elis [28]

Answer:

i = 75.7°

h = 48.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

==>To find i, use the sine rule for finding angles: sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b

Where,

a = 7.2cm

sin(A) = i

b = 6.5cm

sin(B) = sin(61) = 0.8746

Thus:

sin(A)/7.2 = 0.8746/6.5

Multiply both sides by 7.2

sin(A) = (0.8746*7.2)/6.5

sin(A) = 0.969 (3 s.f)

A = i° = sin^-1(0.969) = 75.7 (3 s.f)

==>To find h, use the Cosine rule for angles:

Cos(C) = (a²+b²-c²)/2ab

cos(C) = h°, a = 4, b = 4.5, c = 3.5

a² = 16

b² = 20.25

c² = 12.25

cos(C) = (16+20.25-12.25)/(2*4*4.5)

cos(C) = 24/36

cos(C) = 0.667 (3 s.f)

C = h° = cos^-1(0.667) = 48.2° (3 s.f)
