Answer:

We know that a^2+b^2=c^2. The 45° angle lets us know that y=x (45+45+90=180), so the problem is y^2+x^2=4sqrt of 2

4 \sqrt{2}  =  \sqrt{32 }  \\    \sqrt{32} ^{2}  = 32

So you get y^2+x^2=32, and from there, since we know x and y are equal, you can just divide 32 by 2 then take the square root of that, so the answer should be <em><u>4</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>for</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>both</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>x</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>and</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>y</u></em>

Answer:

4.12=2.45c+1.65c

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

Cameron buys 2.45 pounds of apple and 1.65 pounds of pears.

Also, the cost of apples and pears is 'c' dollars per pound.

Thus, the cost of 2.45 pounds of apple is 2.45c dollars and the cost of 1.65 pounds of pear is 1.65c dollars.

Since, the total cost after using a coupon is $4.12.

So, we get the equation representing the situation is,

Total cost = Total cost of apples + Total cost of pears.

i.e. 4.12=2.45c+1.65c

i.e. 4.12=4.1c

i.e. c=\frac{4.12}{4.1}

i.e. c = 1 dollar

Hence, the required equation to find c is 4.12=2.45c+1.65c.

The surface areas of two similar hexagonal prisms are 882cm² and 1,058 cm²? What is the scale factor of the smaller
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

scale factor of the smaller  prism to the larger prism is B. 21/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

surface areas of two similar hexagonal prisms are 882cm² and 1,058 cm²?

scale factor is ratio of sides of two similar objects

thus scale factor for given prism will be = side of smaller prism / side of larger prism

in general rule

If shape of solid has scale factor of k

scale factor of area = k²

scale factor of volume = k³

_____________________________

Given in the problem area of two prism is given

we know area = side^2

scale factor of area = k²

k^2 = area of smaller prism / area of larger prism

k^2 = 882 / 1058 = 441/529\\k = \sqrt{ 441/529} \\k = 21/23

Thus, correct option is B 21/23.
