Answer:

71 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add 522 (# of glaze donuts) and 323(# of chocolate covered donuts).....845(# of total donuts)

2. Divide 845 by 12(the # of donuts each box could hold)....70.41666(repeating)

3. As you can't have a 0.41666 of a box, you round up 70.4166666 to 71.

71*12=852 70*12=840

Even though 71 boxes is more than enough to hold 845 donuts, there is simply no other choice, as there is no smaller box that holds less than 12 donuts.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 1 centimeter longer than one side and 4 centimeters longer than three times the other side

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

$Hypotenuse = 25cm$

$Opposite = 24cm$

$Adjacent = 7cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent:

The opposite with a
The adjacent with b
The hypotenuse with c

Given that:

$c = 1 + a$

$c = 4 + 3b$

Required

Solve for a, b and c

$c = c$

So, we have:

$1 + a = 4 + 3b$

Subtract 1 from both sides

$a = 4 -1 + 3b$

$a = 3 + 3b$

Apply Pythagoras Theorem

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2$

Substitute 3 + 3b for a and 4 + 3b for c

$(4 + 3b)^2 = (3 + 3b)^2 + b^2$

Open brackets

$16 + 12b+12b+9b^2 = 9 + 9b+9b+9b^2 +b^2$

$16 + 24b+9b^2 = 9 + 18b+10b^2$

Collect Like Terms

$10b^2 - 9b^2 + 18b - 24b + 9 - 16 = 0$

$b^2 - 6b -7 = 0$

Expand

$b^2 +b-7b-7=0$

Factorize:

$b(b+1)-7(b+1) =0$

$(b-7)(b+1) = 0$

Split:

$b - 7 = 0\ or\ b+1=0$

$b = 7\ or\ b=-1$

But the adjacent of a triangle can't have a negative measurement.

So:

$b = 7$

Recall that:

$c = 4 + 3b$

$a = 3 + 3b$

Substitute 7 for b in the above expressions

$c = 4 + 3 * 7$

$c = 4 + 21$

$c = 25$

$a = 3 + 3 * 7$

$a = 3 + 21$

$a = 24$

Hence, the dimensions of the triangle are:

$Hypotenuse = 25cm$

$Opposite = 24cm$

$Adjacent = 7cm$

How do i cross multiply rational equations? EX: 6/x = 4/3

aliya0001 [1]

You would multiply 6 by 3 and x by 4. You would end up getting 4x = 18 and then you simplify that to get 9/2 or 4.5.
