<em>Question:</em>
<em>If one basket contains five bottles each weighing 7 1/4 and the other basket has six apples each weighing 6 1/2 ounces. Which basket is heavier and by how much
?</em>
Answer:
The basket of bottles weighs more than the basket of apples by
ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Given




Required
Determine which basket is heavy
and by how much?
First, we need the total weight of each basket.
For the bottles' basket






For the bottles' basket






By comparing both total weights, 
Hence:
The basket of bottles weighs more than the basket of apples
Calculating the difference:





Hence:
It weighs more by
ounces
This has both a horizontal and a vertical asymptote. There are no slant (oblique) asymptotes cuz the degree of the numerator is not higher than that of the denominator. If the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, which is our case here, then the horizontal asymptote is 0. But we also have a vertical asymptote, which occurs where the denominator = 0. We all know that we break every rule known to mankind if we try to divide by 0, so there also a vertical asymptote at x = 2.
Answer:
The third side is sqrt(77)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
2^2 + b^2 = 9^2
4+ b^2 = 81
Subtract 4 from each side
b^2 = 81-4
b^2=77
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(77)
b = sqrt(77)
The third side is sqrt(77)
