Answer:

The definition of adjacent in math can mean a couple of different things. For angles, adjacent angles would be any two angles that share a side. In other words, two angles right next to each other.

A more broad meaning is just any two geometric shapes that are next to each other in a figure.

These calculations are based on the drawing of the file enclosed.

There are three right triangles.

From the big right triangle:

a^2 + b^2 = 25^2

From the small right triangle on the left side:

(25-x)^2 + 10^2 = a^2

From the small right triangle on the right side

x^2 +10^2 = b^2

=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = a^2 + b^2

=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = 25^2

=> 25^2 - 50x + x^2 + 10^2 + 10^2 = 25^2

=> x^2 -50x + 100 =0

Use the quadratic formular to find the roots:

x = 2.1 and x = 47.9

Distance from back: 25 - 2.1 = 22.9 ft

Answer: 22.9 ft

3 cups left.

David biked a total of 158 miles (option C)

Why?

- First exercise:

To solve the problem we need to consider that for each 1/2 cup of cornmeal, we will have 6 corn muffins.

So, calculating we have:

$TotalMuffins=24=4*6\\\\UsedCups=\frac{1}{2}*4=2Cups$

We can see that, if each 1/2 cups can give us 6 corn muffins, 2 cups can give us 24 corn muffins.

$CupsLeft=5cups-2cups=3cups$

Hence, there are 3 cups left.

- Second exercise:

We can solve the problem by multiplying or adding the fractions according to the number of dots assigned to each one.

So, calculating we have:

$FirstDay=10miles*2=20miles\\SecondDay=10\frac{1}{2}miles=10.5miles\\ThirdDay=11miles*3=33miles\\FourthDay=11\frac{1}{2}miles*4=11.5miles*4=46miles\\FifthDay=12miles*3=36miles\\SixthDay=12\frac{1}{2}miles=12.5miles$
