Let our basis be worth 1 dollar. A nickel's worth is $0.05. In order to come up with $1, the number of nickels should be:
Number of nickels = $1 * 1 nickel/$0.05 = 20 nickels
Thickness of 20 nickels = 20 nickels * 1.95 mm = 39 mm
Let's do the same for the quarters. Each quarter is worth $0.25.
Number of quarters = $1 * 1 quarter/$0.25 = 4 quarters
Thickness of 4 quarters = 4 quarters * 1.75 mm = 7 mm
Find the ratio of the two:
39 mm/7 mm = 5.57
Therefore, a stack of nickels is 5.57 times thicker than a stack of quarters worth one dollar.
If you are saying that the hypotenuse is 10 cm the you have to solve the following equation using the Pythagorean theory.
4^2 + b^2 = 10^2
16 + b^2 = 100
16 - 16 + b^2 = 100 - 16
b^2 = 84
Find 
Answer:
10y-30
Step-by-step explanation:
10*1y=10y
-3*10=-30
10y-30
Answer:
7. 49
8. 10.4
Step-by-step explanation:
7) our hypotenuse is 8, and the side opposite the base of ladder and ground angle is 6, therefore we can use Sin
sin = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(x) = 6/8 = 3/4
sin-1(3/4) = 49
8) using the theorem that alternate exterior angles are congruent
the angle opposite side x is 30
tan = opposite/adjacent
tan(30) = x/18
x = 18tan(30) = 6√(3) = 10.4
you can also use 30-60-90 special right triangles.
the side opposite 30 is x
side opposite 60 is x√(3)
and side opposite 90 is 2x
