Answer: B (3 cups)
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 2 cups + 1 cup together, and you get 3 cups. C is incorrect (in this scenario) because it doesn’t describe what measurement it’s in.
The new pool is 18.84 feet larger in circumference than the old one.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Circumference of the pool = 47.1 feet
Diameter of the new pool, d = 21 feet
radius, r = 21/2 feet
Circumference of the new pool = ?
We know:
Circumference = 2πr
where,
r is the radius
On substituting the value:
C = 
C = 65.94 feet
The difference in circumference of the two pools = 65.94 - 47.1 feet
= 18.84 feet
Therefore, the new pool is 18.84 feet larger in circumference than the old one.
Answer:
Value is x=8 and y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A right triangle 'A' hypotenuse length of x+4 and a leg of x,
and right triangle 'B' hypotenuse length of 3y and a leg length of y+4
To find : For what values of x and y are the triangles congruent by HL?
Solution :
Triangle A,
Hypotenuse: x+4
Leg: x
Triangle B,
Hypotenuse: 3y
Leg: y+4
Since the triangle A and B are congruent so, the sides of triangles are equal.
(Hypotenuse are equal) ..........[1]
and
(Legs are equal) ..........[2]
Solving the equation of system,
Put the value of x from [2] in [1],




Substitute y in [2],
Therefore, The value of x=8 and y=4
Verifying for the values of x and y:
Triangle A,
Hypotenuse: x+4=8+4=12
Leg: x=8
Triangle B,
Hypotenuse: 3y=3(4)=12
Leg: y+4=4+4=8
Both hypotenuses and both legs are equal hence they are congruent.
