7. 27000 words
8. 300 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
4.
2 cups x cups
-------------- = -----------
6 people 18 people
Using cross products
2 * 18 = 6x
Divide by 6
36/6 =6x/6
6 =x
6.
12 cans 30 cans
-------------- = -----------
20 dollars x dollars
Using cross products
12x = 20*30
12x = 600
Divide by 12
12x/12 =600/12
x = 50
7.
3 hours = 3*60 minutes/hour = 180 minutes
30 minutes 180 minutes
-------------- = -----------
4500 words x words
Using cross products
30x = 4500*180
Divide by 30
x = 4500*180/30
x=27000
8.
45 dollars x dollars
-------------- = -----------
15 burgers 100 burgers
Using cross products
45*100 = 15x
Divide by 15

300 =x
Answer: 13.2300 is the next guess
To use the Babylonian method, you first start with your guess of 13.0463. Then, you add to it the original number divided by 13.0463.
It would look like this:
13.0463 + 175/13.0463 =26.460006
Then, you divide this number by 2.
The result is 13.2300
This value is closer to the correct square root of 175.
6hours × 3 (triple means 3) so 6×3=18
