Answer:

Length: 13.9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 8 and c= 16

8^2 + b^2 = 16^2

64 + b^2 = 256

b^2 = 256 - 64

b = sqrt 192

b = 13.9

7/8 yard of material is needed to make a blanket, how many blankets can be made from 21 yards of material?

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.

when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:

21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24

Answer:

y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx is the format of the graph we are looking for (as told in the instructions) where k is the variable we are supposed to find (like y = x, y=2x, y=3x, etc)

Note that as x increases by 1, y increases by 2. We can see that by writing a table of the points of points that the line given intersects (picture below). We can see that by the values of the x-axis and the y-axis. Why does this happen? This is because y =2x for each value of x. We notice that in our table.

Therefore, the equation is y=2x. I hope this helps! If you still have questions, ask me in the comments!
