To understand the problem, let's first draw a free body diagram of the forces exerted by Judy and Ike on the truck. (Refer to the left side of the attachment).
To solve for the resultant, we just use the tip-to-tail method. This is illustrated on the right side of the attachment.
We can see that the tip-to-tail method forms a right triangle thus we can just apply the Pythagorean theorem in solving for Ike's force.
ANSWER: Ike must pull the truck with a force of 16.0 N.
Answer: B

Answer: 33%</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
1/3 converts to the decimal form 0.333333... where the 3's go on forever
5/3 is a similar story but 5/3 = 1.666666.... where the '6's go on forever
The notation 
indicates that the 6's go on forever.
So, 
The horizontal bar tells us which digits repeat. As another example, 
The three dots just mean "keep this pattern going forever".
----------
Everything mentioned so far has the decimal portions go on forever repeating some pattern over and over.
The only one that doesn't do this is 33% which converts to the decimal form 0.33
The value 0.33 is considered a terminating decimal since "terminate" means "stop". So this is the value that doesn't fit in with the other three items mentioned.
Answer:
36 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of proportionality between the two similar triangles is 1:6, which you can find by dividing the corresponding side length measures from each triangle (3/18 = 4/24). Then you can set up a proportion:
1/6 = 6/x, which you can solve to get x = 36
Answer:
a) 21
Step-by-step explanation:
If the columns are labeled a, b, c, d left to right, it appears that we have ...
The value of M is 21.

Questions like this require that you try different combinations of operations on the numbers shown to see if you can find a relationship. Here, the left column is a perfect square, so that is a clue. The difference of the numbers in the middle columns is a factor of the number in the right column -- another clue. It takes a certain amount of creative thought and familiarity with arithmetic facts. There is no "step-by-step" for a problem like this.
