If you're trying to find the missing side of the "triangle" (the distance from the house to where the ladder touches the ground), you would use the pythagorean theorem, a²+b²=c². (c is always hypotenuse)
a²+b²=c²
12²+b²=15²
144+b²=225
b²=81
√b²=√81
b=9
The first thing you should do is calculate how many pounds of cheese a hamburger has
1 hamburger = 1/4 pound of cheese.
Then, you can make a rule of three to know how many pounds of cheese were sold:
1 ---> 1/4
310 ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((310) / (1)) * (1/4) = 77.5
Answer
they sell last saturday 77.5 pounds of cheese
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Invert and multiply the second fraction.
All 4 parts of the two fractions can be factored into simpler factors.
Numerous cancelations can occur
- (x - 5) [top right with x - 5 bottom left]
- (x - 2) [top left with x - 2 bottom right]
