Answer:
b = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The mistake Megan has made is that she has squared the lengths and then added it instead of taking away the squared length's. The method she used was to work out the hypotenuse, so the correct method would be as follows:
a² + b² = c²
→ Substitute in the values
5² + b² = 13²
→ Simplify the equation
25 + b² = 169
→ Minus 25 from both sides to isolate b²
b² = 144
→ Square root both sides to find the value of b
b = 12
Answer:
About 21 weeks
Step-by-step explination:
Her bike is 775 dollars. Lets start there.
She will deposit 40 dollars every Friday, or, every week.
With this logic, we would only need 20 weeks. I found this by doing 775/40.
BUT
We have one more complication. Andrea owes 45 dollars to her sister. It is important to note that this is a ONE TIME payback. This is NOT weekly.
Here is how we will do it:
Andrea needs 775(bike)+45(sister)=820 dollars in debt
820/40 a week=20.5 weeks.
Since .5 of a week is 3.5, and I don't think .5 of a day applies here, we will round up and say that andrea will need roughly 21 weeks to earn all the money she needs.
Final answer: 21 weeks
Answer:
I believe it is 11 1/4. Hope I'm right.
Step-by-step explanation:
I multiplied 2*5=10
Then I multiplied 1/4*5= 1 1/4
Then I added 10+1 1/4=11 1/4
Scale 1/15
Scale = 1 : 15
Sketch shows: 3 by 4.5
Actual = (3*15) by (4.5 * 15) = 45 by 67.5
Actual = 45 feet by 67.5 feet.
