Answer:

19.2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1st Case:</u>

4 and 5 are legs of the right triangle.

Using the pythagorean therom: a^2+b^2=c^2

We can say that 4^2+5^2=x^2

16+25=x^2

41=x^2

x=√41

√41 is about 6.4

x=6.4

<u>2nd Case</u>

5 is the hypotenuse of the right triangle and 4 is the legs.

Using the pythagorean therom: a^2+b^2=c^2

We can say that 4^2+x^2=5^2

16+x^2=25

x^2=9

x=3

<u>Final Step</u>

We need to multiply the two possible lengths for x. So for case 1 the length of x was 6.4 and for case two the length was 3. 6.4*3=19.2

Anwser: <u>19.2</u>

Rani is making rice pudding. She uses
Goryan [66]

Rani will use 3/2 cups of white rice for 3 cups of milk.

<h3>What is termed as unitary method?</h3>

"It is a method in which we obtain the value of a single unit by subtracting the value of multiple units and thus the value of multiple units by subtracting the value of a single unit."

  • The value of several things is given in the unitary method, and we must either figure out the significance of more or lesser things.
  • To do so, we must first determine the value of one item by division and then determine the value of ever more or fewer items by multiplication.

Now, for the given question;

1 cup of white rice is required for every 2 cups of milk by Rani.

Thus,

2 cups of milk ------> 1 cup of white rice.

So, using unitary method. Divide both side by 2.

1 cups of milk ------> 1/2 cup of white rice.

Now, calculate for the 3 cups of milk.

multiplying both side by 3.

3 cups of milk ------> 3/2 cup of white rice.

Therefore, the 3/2 cups of white rice required for the 3 cups of milk.
