Answer:

2 more cages

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of guinea pigs means , 2 guinea pigs per cage

If the pet store has 8 cages how many more cages will the pet store need?

For 8 cages

1 cage = 2 guinea pigs

8 cages = x

Cross Multiply

x = 8 × 2 guinea pigs

x = 16 guinea pigs

The pet store has 20 guinea pigs

The amount of guinea pigs left

= 20 - 16

= 4 guinea pigs

2 guinea pigs = 1 cage

4 guinea pigs = x

Cross Multiply.

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2 cages

Therefore, the pet store needs 2 more cages

A recipe calls for 1/2 cup of celery,2 1/3 of water and 3/4 cups of carrots. What the combined amont of these three ingredients?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

43/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must find a common denominator for all 3 fractions, 1/2 cup, 2 1/3 cup, and 3/4 cup all share 12 as a common denominator.

However, let's convert 2 1/3 cup into an improper fraction: there are 2 (3/3 cups) here multiply (3/3) and (2/1) you get 6/3. Finally, add the remaining 1/3 to 6/3 and you get 7/3.

Now, to get all these fractions to have the same common denominator.

(1/2) ×(6/6)=(6/12)

(7/3)×(4/4)=(28/12)

(3/4)×(3/3)=(9/12)

Add them all together and your answer is: (43/12)

Pythagoras theorem - The length of the third side is 6.71unit

What is Pythagoras theorem ?

The Pythagorean theorem, sometimes known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a key relationship in Euclidean geometry between a right triangle's three sides. According to this statement, the areas of the squares on the other two sides add up to the size of the square whose side is the hypotenuse.

The Pythagoras theorem's equation is as follows:

H² = P² + B²

The triangle's third side will be the following length:

Let x represent the triangle's third side's length.

9² = 6² + x²

81 = 36 + x²

x² = 45

x = 6.708

x = 6.71 units

Hence, the third side of the triangle is 6.71unit
