Answer:

3.975 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the length of the triangle

We solve using Pythagoras Theorem

Diagonal² = Length² + Width²

Diagonal = 4 inches

Width = 3 inches

Length² = Diagonal² - Width²

Length = √Diagonal² - Width²

Length = √4² - 3²

Length = √16 - 9

Length = √(7)

Length = 2.6457513111 inches

Length = 2.65 inches

Step 2

Area of Triangle = 1/2 × Base × Height

Base = Length = 2.65 inches

Height = Width = 3 inches

=1/2 × 2.65 inches × 3 inches

= 3.975 square inches

Therefore, the area of one of the triangles that are formed is 3.975 square inches

Bruce has a bottle that contains 60% of lemon juice and the rest water. The bottle has 1 liter of water. PART A: Write an equati
Lelechka [254]
Part A:
there is 60% of lemon juice in a 1 liter of water
so 60% *OF* the 1 liter
( of technically means * in mathematics)
so 
60% * 1 liter
or 0.6 * 1 liter
Now to find the total number of liters of lemon juice and water in the bottle
(0.6*1)+x= 1
(x being the amount of water)

Part B: We can calculate the number of liters of lemon juice that are present in the bottle
60% * 1
0.6 * 1
that is 0.6
So there is 0.6 liters of lemon juice in the bottle

Hope this helps :)

Five bikers join a race. In how many possible ways can they be arranged as
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

60 different possibilities

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of bikers = 5

Positions = first, second and third

First positions = all 5 riders can take the first spot = 5 possibilities

Second spot = position 1 has been filled hence number of possibilities = ( 5 - 1) = 4

Third spot = position 1 and 2 has been filled ; number of possibilities =. (5 - 2). = 3

Number of possible arrangements :

5 * 4 * 3 = 60 different possibilities
