Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea here is to be able to write and then solve the equation needed for this. In words, this is what you are looking to solve: "The active ingredinet is 45% of the mass of the pill". Putting those words into an equation:

active ingredient = .45 (mass of pill). Since our active ingredient is 35 mg:

325 = .45m and divide by .45:

m = 722.2 mg

Bob and mark talk about their families. Bob says he has 3 kids, the product of their ages is 72. He gives another clue: the sum

pychu [463]

I can only give possible combination of the ages. Had the sum of the ages been given, then the 3 specific numbers would have been derived.

We need to do prime factorization of 72.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2= 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
3 ÷ 1 = 1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72

Possible combinations:

1 x 8 x 9 = 72 1 + 8 + 9 = 18
1 x 4 x 18 = 72 1 + 4 + 18 = 23
2 x 4 x 9 = 72 2 + 4 + 9 = 15
3 x 4 x 6 = 72 3 + 4 + 6 = 13

Measurements of Frankie's yard = 20ft x 32ft

He wants to build a path from one corner to another.

To find:

The length of path = ?

Solution:

Let us consider a rectangle $ABCD$ as shown in the attached image in the answer area.

We are given the two adjacent sides of a rectangle and we have to find diagonal of the rectangle.

To find the diagonal, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

We are given the base and perpendicular of the right angled triangle and we have to find the hypotenuse.

According to Pythagorean theorem:

$\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}$

$Diagonal = 20^2 + 32^2\\\Rightarrow Diagonal = 400 + 1024\\\Rightarrow Diagonal = \bold{37.7\ ft}$
