Answer:

37.2

Step-by-step explanation:

when you turn the small triangle LMN to its right angle to cover the right angle of KLM, you find that they are similar triangles.

therefore the corresponding side lengths are at the same ratio.

LM/KM = MN/LN

LM = 24

MN = 13

we can get LN via Pythagoras of the small triangle

LN² + MN² = LM²

LN² + 13² = 24²

LN² = 24² - 13² = 576 - 169 = 407

LN = sqrt(407) = 20.174241

now back to our main problem

24/KM = 13/sqrt(407)

24×sqrt(407)/13 = KM = 37.2

ELEN [110]

Multiply by cost of a dvd by the number of dvds bought ( x) and add the shipping charge.

A) 33.44 = 9.95x + 3.59

Subtract 3.59 from both sides.

29.85 = 9.95x

Divide both sides by 9.95

X = 29.85/9.95

X = 3

They bought 3 dvds.

B) 33.49-3.59 = 29.85

29.85/9.95 = 3

C) the steps were the same but solving arithmetic you didn’t have to do steps on both sides of an equation.

A painter can paint 1/2 a room in 1 1/2 hours. How many of the same-sized rooms can he paint per hour?

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

1/3 a room

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A painter can paint 1/2 a room in 1 1/2 hours

using proportion

Find out how many of the same-sized rooms can he paint per hour

Remember that

$1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*2+1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

Let

x -----> the number of the same-sized rooms

$\frac{(1/2)}{(3/2)}\frac{room}{hours} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{room}{hour}\\\\x=\frac{1}{3}\ room$
