Answer:

42.42 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • A right triangle has a leg of length 15 yards and a hypotenuse of length 45 yards .

And we need to find the length of other leg. So since it is a right angled triangle we can use the Pythagoras Theorem which is ,

<u>Pythagoras</u><u> Theorem</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • In right angle triangle sum of squares of two smallest sides that is base and perpendicular is equal to the square of the largest side that is hypotenuse .

<u>Using</u><u> Pythagoras</u><u> Theorem</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

:\implies p² + b² = h²

:\implies 15² + p² = 45²

:\implies 225 + p² = 2025

:\implies p²= 1800

:\implies p = 42.42

<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>measure</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>other </u><u>leg </u><u>is </u><u>4</u><u>2</u><u>.</u><u>4</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>yards.</u>

$60 , because 20%=10%+10%, and 75 10%=7.5, 7.5+7.5=15, so 75-15=60

What does she need to score on the fifth teat to get exactly a mean of 90?
loris [4]
I think I can bravely ignore the Freudian slip and solve this one.

-- If the mean of 5 tests is 90, then all 5 scores add up to (5 x 90) = 450

-- The sum of her first 4 scores is (95+ 90 + 85 + 95) = 365

-- If she has one more test to average 90, then she needs
to score (450 - 365) = <u>85</u> on it.

That looks like choice 'G '.

Anni [7]

Answer: \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the common denominator

The easiest way to do this is by multiplying the two given denominators, which are 2 and 5.

2 × 5 = 10

So, our common denominator is 10. Then, multiply the numerators of the two fractions by 2 and 5. Here's why:

\frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10}         We multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to make sure our new fraction stays equivalent to the original fraction.

Do the same thing for the other one:

\frac{1*5}{2*5} = \frac{5}{10}

Finally, subtract the two fractions to find the difference between the two times:

\frac{6}{10} -\frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{10}

The reason we used the common denominator is because we can only add or subtract fractions if they have the same denominator.
