Share $2400 for three friends so that one friend gets twice as much as the smallest share and the other friend gets three times

as much as the smallest share.
Mathematics
1 answer:
Lesechka [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

smallest share = $400

second smallest share = $800

largest share = $1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest share = x

amount one friend gets = 2x

second friend gets = 3x

2400 = x + 2x + 3x

2400 = 6x

x = 400

2 x 400 = 800

3 x 400 = 1200

Express 9 to the 5 over 2 in simplest radical form
Arte-miy333 [17]

9 to the 5 over 2 in the simplest radical form will be 243 or 9 to the root 3.

<u>Explanation</u>

  • Simplest radical form in mathematics re those expressions in which there re no roots, sure roots, cube roots or fourth root to be solved. According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, the word radical means or relating to or originating from the root. It also means going to the root or foundation of any specific thing.
  • The use of the simplest radical form is to get rid-off roots to be it sure root, cube root or fourth root in n expression. In the end there are no radicals in the denominator part of the fraction if we are dealing with fractions.
  • In the given problem 9 to the 5 over 2 in the simplest radical form will be 243 will be further deduced to 9 to the root 3.
  • The following steps would make the problem more simple:

        9 to the 5 over 2

        =(3^2)^5/2

        =3^5

       =243

       or,

      9 to the root 3

a rectangle field has an anrea of 40cm^2. if one side of the field is 3m longer than the other side, find the new area of the fi
oksian1 [2.3K]

The area of the field where the length of each side is increased by 10% is 48.4 cm^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

               A rectangle field has an area of 40 cm^{2}

               If one side of the field is 3 cm longer than the other side

               The length of new area in each side is increased by 10%

Step:1

          Let,

                          b - One side of rectangle

                          l - Other side of rectangle

          From given.

                         l -  b +3

           Formula for area of rectangle,

                   Area, a = lb      

                          40 = ( b+3) × b

                         40 = b^{2} + 3b

           Solving the above the equation,

                          b = 5 cm

                            l = 8 cm

Step:2

          If the area of rectangle increased by 10%,

                            l = 8 + ( 8 × \frac{10}{100} )

                              = 8.8

                           b = 5 + ( 5 × \frac{10}{100} )

                              = 5.5

         Area of rectangle is,

                      a = ( 8.8 × 5.5 )

                        = 48.4 square centimeters

Result:

        The area of the field where the length of each side is increased by 10% is 48.4 cm^{2}, if a rectangle field has an area of 40 square centimeters and one side of the field is 3 cm longer than the other side.

The side lengths of a triangle are 5, 8, and 12. Is this a right triangle?
professor190 [17]

Answer:

A) No...

Step-by-step explanation:

We can check if this triangle is a right triangle by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

  • a² + b² = c²
  • where a and b are the legs of the right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse (longest side)

Using 5 for a, 8 for b, and 12 for c, let's see if this satisfies the equation:

  • 5² + 8² = 12²

Simplify.

  • 25 + 64 = 144
  • 89 = 144

We can see that 89 ≠ 144, so this leaves us with answer choices A and B. I think you meant to write < for the last + sign.

Seeing as the sum of the two lengths of the triangle is greater than the third side length, this creates a normal triangle. This cannot be the correct answer choice since this only satisfies the requirements for a triangle, but not a right triangle.

This leaves us with answer choice A.  52 + 32 ≠ 122 and 52 + 32 < 122. (I'm not sure why the squares of the side lengths are not used, but this should be the correct answer.)
