Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The missing length can be found by applying pythagorean theorem. Thus:

Missing length = √((8x)² - (2x)²)

Missing length = √(64x² - 4x²)

✔️Missing length = √(60x²) = 2x√15

Plug in the value of x which is 3

Missing length = 2*3√15

✔️Length = 6√5

Sharon has a new beaded necklace. 72 out of the 80 beads on the necklace are blue. What

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Sharon bought a necklace with 90% blue beads.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Sharon's necklace has 80 beads. We are also given that of those 80 beads, 72 of them are blue.

Therefore, we can set up a ratio of blue beads to total beads in order to find out the relationship.

$\displaystyle \frac{72}{80}=\frac{36}{40}=\frac{18}{20}=\frac{9}{10}$

Then, using the fraction we receive as a result, we can convert this to a decimal.

$\displaystyle \frac{9}{10} = 0.9$

After we complete this calculation, we can multiply our decimal by 100 in order to obtain the relationship in percentage form.

$0.9 \times 100 = 90\%$

Of the 80 beads, 90% were blue beads.

1. We know that 1 yard is 36 inches, therefore, 50 yards expressed in inches is:

2. If he is 50 yards from school and the map shows that the school is 34 inches from his current location, when it shows 3 inches the real distance is:

<u> (1800)(3in)/24in=158.82</u>

3. If you can to express it in yards:

<h2><u>Therefore, the answer is: 158.82 inches or 4.41 yards.</u></h2>
