use a calculator to find 5 sqrt2
I can't see the expressions
In such questions we mustuse examples.....
Let's imagine that the shortest size is 1
So as it is half of the second the second must be2
As it is the third of the longest size it must be 3
To find the perimeter we must add the three sides.
1+2+3=6
Therefore the perimeter is the double of the longest size
or
The longest size is half of the perimeter
We must take one or two more examples to be sure...
I will take another one
Let's imagine that the shortest size is 5
So as it is half of the second the second must be10
As it is the third of the longest size it must be 15
To find the perimeter we must add the three sides.
5+10+15=30
Therefore the perimeter is the double of the longest size
or
The longest size is half of the perimeter
I wish I helped you ;)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> the number of slabs of butter
y ----> the number of cups of butter
we know that
The ratio is

so

That means-----> The number of slabs of butter must be equal to the number of cups of butter
In this problem
we have

Remember that

so
The number of slabs of butter needed must be equal to the number of cups of butter
therefore
