Set up a ratio:

1/50 = x/480

Cross multiply:

50x = 480

Divide both sides by 50:

X = 9.6

The distance on the map is 9.6 cm

A pizza costs $18.<br> a soda costs $2.50 .<br> Tax is 10%. What<br> is the total spent

horrorfan [7]

18+2.50=20.50 so tax is 10% so you can put that into a calculator as 20.50*0.10 which equals 2.05 so just add 20.50 and 2.05 which is 22.55 is your final answer

Answer:

8 and 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Our first step is to set x as the other side length, and y as the hypotenuse. We get that 6 + x + y = 24, and x + y = 18. The area gives us that 6x = 24(2) = 48. We then divide both sides by 6 and we get x = 8. We have x = 8 so we plug that into the equation x + y = 18 and we get that y = 10. So the other side lengths are 8 and 10.

Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.

Mazyrski [523]

Complete Question:

Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.

Write an equation using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x.

How far are Ava's feet from the balloon?

Answer:

Ava's feet is 17ft away from the balloon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$height = 8ft$

$distance = 15ft$

The attached image represents the scenario

Using Pythagoras theorem (from the attachment), we have:

$x^2 = 8^2 + 15^2$

$x^2 = 64 + 225$

$x^2 =289$

Take square roots of both sides

$x = \sqrt{289$

$x = 17$
