Answer:
50 soldiers must be transferred elsewhere.
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this question by proportions, using a rule of three.
As the number of soldiers decrease, the provisions last for more time. This means that the measures are inversely proportional, and we have an inverse rule of three, using line multiplication, instead of cross.
30 days of provisions - 200 soldiers
40 days of provisions - x soldiers
Simplifying by 40
The provisions will last for 40 days with 150 soldiers, which means that 200 - 150 = 50 soldiers must be transferred elsewhere.
Answer:
The area is 83.905 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The total ratio is 9 + 7 + 6 = 22
So the length of the sides are as follows;
9/22 * 44 = 18 cm
7/22 * 44 = 14 cm
6/22 * 44 = 12cm
we can use Heron’s formula to find the area of the triangle
we find a first
s = (a + b + c)/2 = (18+14+12)/2 = 44/2 = 22
Mathematically, the Heron’s formula is as follows;
A = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
where a, b and c are 18,14 and 12 respectively
Plugging the values, we have;
A = √22(22-18)(22-14)(22-12)
A = √(22 * 4 * 8 * 10)
A = √(7,040)
A = 83.905 cm^3
Answer:
4
1.5(x+4) - 3 = 4.5( x-2)-----------------------open brackets on both sides
1.5 x +6 -3= 4.5x- 9.................................collect like terms
3+9 = 4.5 x- 1.5x
12=3x..................................divide by 3 both sides to get x
12/3=x
x=4
The answer is 1.41421356237
