Answer:

around 4.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythaogrean theorem we get sqrt 32 or 4sqrt2 for the diagonal of the square.

To get x we can use Pythagorean theorem again to set up an equation,

32 + x^2 = 49

This gives us x = sqrt17, which is approximately 4.1231 or around 4.1

A bat and a ball cost one dollar and ten cents in total. The bat costs a dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

Nastasia [14]

The answer is 5 cents because if the bat is a dollar more, then it the bat would be $1.05, and 0.05 + 1.05 = $1.10

you could also use the equation x + (x + 1) = 1.10 where x is the cost if the ball and x + 1 is the cost of the bat. x + x + 1 is the same as 2x + 1 = 1.10, and when solved x = 0.05.

the nutrition facts label from a 12 oz can of soft drink is shown below. Note that a serving of the soft drink is defined as 8 o

Nataliya [291]

The correct answer is C. 65

Explanation:

The serving size of the soft drink is 8oz, besides this, the amount of sugar for this serving size according to the label is 26 grames. Now, to calculate the amount of sugar in 20oz, one of the simplest methods is to use a rule of three, because three values are known, and one is missing. The process is shown below:

1. Write the known values and use x to represent the unknown values

8 oz = 26 grames of sugar

20 oz = x

2. Use cross multiplication (this means multiply 8 x 6) and divide it into the remaining value

$x = \frac{26 x 20}{ 8}$ or x = 26 x 20 / 8
