Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer is 4 books per minute. 240 (books) divided by 60 (minutes in one hour) equals 4
Solutions
To solve this problem we have to use the Pythagorean theorem. You can only use the Pythagorean theorem in Right Triangles. The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse". C² is the longest side so it is the hypotenuse . To calculate c² we have to do α² + β² = c².
Given
One leg of a right triangular piece of land has a length of 24 yards. They hypotenuse has a length of 74 yards. The other leg has a length of 10x yards.
First leg (24 yards) would be α
Second leg would be β
Hypotenuse (74 yards) would be c
Now we have points α β c.
a² (24) + β² ( x ) = c² (74)
Calculations
c² = α² + β²
74² = 24²+ β²
<span>5476 = 576 + </span>β²
5476 - 576 = β²
<span> </span>
<span>4900 = </span>β²
→√4900
<span> </span>
β<span> = 70 yards
</span>
<span>70 = 10x
</span>
<span>x = 70</span>÷<span>10 = 7 yards
</span>
The second leg = 7 yards
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let they meet after t hours
2.5t+3t=22
5.5 t=22
55/10 t=22
t=22×10/55=4 hours
after 4 hours they meet.
There are multiple answers to this question
Answers: 3.161, 3.162, 3.163, 3.164, 3.165, 3.166, 3.167, 3.168, 3.169
(You can just pick one)
Reason: just look at the place numbers. The number has to be between 3.16 and 3.17. So go to the next place value which is the thousandths place. 3.161-3.169 all are between since they have a 6 in the hundredths place, but does not go over 1.17
