Answer:
9/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Not hard. Multiply top and bottom by the other number. 3*3 = 9, and 4*5 = 20. so 9/20
Answer:
1) 18m²
2) 25cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
- a = ½ × b × h
- a = ½ × 9 × 4
- a = ½ × 36
- a = 18m²
2)
- a = ½ × b × h
- a = ½ × 10 × 5
- a = 5 × 5
- a = 25 cm²
Answer:
4 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the cyclists is the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle. The hypotenuse is √2 times the length of the legs in such a triangle, so each cyclist must have ridden 8 miles in 2 hours.
Their speed is (8 mi)/(2 h) = 4 mi/h.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Consider an isosceles right triangle with leg lengths 1. Then the Pythagorean theorem tells us the length of the hypotenuse is ...
c² = a² +b² . . . square of hypotenuse is sum of squares of legs
c² = 1² +1² . . . . both legs are 1 in our example triangle
c² = 2
c = √2
That is, the hypotenuse is √2 times the leg length.
X is 2 more than y
x=2+y
5 years ago (x-5 and y-5)
sum is 30
x-5+y-5=30
x+y-10=30
x=2+y
sub 2+y for x
2+y+y-10=30
2y-8=30
add 8 to both sides
2y=38
divide both sides by 2
y=19
Lindsey is 19
