Answer:

  x = 18

  m = 21.2

  p = 31.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the left-side length to the bottom-side length is the same for both triangles:

  x/11.2 = (x +27)/28

  28x = 11.2(x +27) = 11.2x +302.4 . . . . . multiply by 11.2·28

  16.8x = 302.4 . . . . . . . subtract 11.2x

  x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16.8

__

The length of m can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse.

  x^2 +11.2^2 = m^2

  m = √(324 +125.44) = √449.44 = 21.2

__

The length of p can also be found using the Pythagorean theorem. We prefer the proportion ...

  p/27 = m/x

  p = 27(21.2/18) = 31.8

The lengths of the unknown sides in the figure are ...

  x = 18

  m = 21.2

  p = 31.8

Which fraction is greater 31/52 or 37/64
fiasKO [112]
31/52 is greater because the pie as I imagine it would be cut into bigger slices than 37/64 because then the pie has to be cut into 64 pieces instead of 52


Therefore, 31/52 is bigger and greater

The Snack Shack is making a batch of trail mix. They use 9 1/3 pounds of granola, 9 1/3 pounds of nuts, and 9 1/3 pounds of yogu
Leokris [45]

What goes into the bowl . . .

-- granola . . . 9-1/3 pounds
-- nuts . . . . . 9-1/3 pounds
-- raisins. . . . 9-1/3 pounds

How much is in the bowl all together ?

     (9-1/3) + (9-1/3) + (9-1/3) = 27-3/3 = <em>28 pounds</em> .

After stirring, mixing, shaking, and resting, how much is
still in the bowl ?

       Still 28 pounds.  Nothing else went in, and nothing came out.

After a month, nobody has come into the store yet asking to buy
28 pounds of trail mix. So before it spoils or gets soggy, they decide
to split it up into 14 smaller packages, and see if more people will
buy smaller packages.

They make all of the small packages exactly equal.
How much trail mix is in each one ?

       (28 pounds)  divided by  (14 packages) =  <em>2 pounds/package</em>

Find the sum.
Harman [31]

Answer:

C) 7.54

Step-by-step explanation:

first, line up the decimal point, which has been done properly. now, add as though the decimal point doesn't exist, just add normally. you get 754. now, you slide the decimal point down, there are 2 places after the decimal (we assume that 6.8 is 6.80, doesn't change anything), so that's how many will be there in the answer. therefore, 7.54.

Solve the inequality.<br><br><br> n + 9 &lt; −3
storchak [24]
When solving this inequality, you would do the inverse to the other side.

Subtraction is the inverse of addition.

So,

n + 9 (-9) <-3 (-9)

n<-12

When you subtract two negative numbers, you continue to the left of the number line.

I hope this helps!
