Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

i would set up a system of equation using the pythagorean theorem:

1^2+x^2=z^2

4^2+x^2=y^2

Add up these equations to get:

17+2x^2=y^2+z^2

But notice that

y^2+z^2=5^2

So you can substitute

17+2x^2=25

2x^2=8

x^2=4

x=2

Decrease £1200 by 25%

gayaneshka [121]

Ok well...
1200 times .25 is 300 so subtract 1200-300= 900 is the decreased number :)

Hope it helps! :)

Maddie bought 3 2/3 yards of satin ribbon at the craft store. She wanted to make hair bows for the cheer squad. Each bow require

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total yards of satin bought by Maddie = $3\frac{2}{3}$ yards

Number of yards required make one ribbon = $\frac{2}{3}$ yards

To find:

Number of complete bows that can be made ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about converting the mixed fraction to fractional form.

Formula:

$a\dfrac{b}{c} = \dfrac{a\times c+b}{c}$

Therefore, total yards of satin bought by Maddie can be written in fractional form as:

$3\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{3\times 3+2}{3} = \dfrac{11}{3}$

One hair bow requires $\frac{2}{3}$ yards of ribbon.

Number of hair bows that can be made, can be found by dividing the total ribbon length by ribbon required for making one hair bow.

Answer is:

$\dfrac{\frac{11}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{11\times 3}{2\times 3}\\\approx 4$

4 hair bows can be made.
