Answer:The correct answer is:

90 feet.

Explanation:

Each wire forms a right triangle with the tree and the ground. The height from the ground to the point on the tree the wire is attached to, 3 feet, is one leg. The length from the tree to where the wire is staked in the ground, 4 feet, is the other leg.

We use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse: 3²+4²=c²; 9+16=c²; 25=c²; √25=√(c²); 5=c

This means each wire will be 5 feet long. There are 3 wires per tree, which gives us 5*3 = 15 feet. There are 6 tree, so this is 15*6 = 90 feet of wire.

A shop sells packs of black pens, packs of red pens and packs of green pens.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

85 pens  

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of green pens sold is shown below;

As the number of black pens, red pens, and green pans is 3:5:6

And, the ratio of sold of black pens, red pens, and green pans is 7:3:4

So, the ratio of pens in a number of pens is

= 3 × 7 : 5 × 3 : 4 × 6

= 21: 15 : 24

= 7: 5 : 8

And, the total of 212 pens are sold

So, the number of green pens sold is

= 8 × 212 ÷ (7 + 5 + 8)

= 85 pens

Twice the difference of a number and six is the same as twelve . Write into algebraic equation
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

2(n-6)=12

(I went too far in my explanation; I'm not going to erase it because I think it is important to have an example on solving these)

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice the difference of a number and 6 is the same as 12.

Twice means 2 times

Difference means the result of subtracting something.

is the same as means equal to (=).

So we are given 2(n-6)=12.

You can start by dividing 2 on both sides are distributing 2 to terms in the ( ).

I will do it both ways and you can pick your favorite.

2(n-6)=12

Divide both sides by 2.

 n-6  =6

Add 6 on both sides

 n     =12

OR!

2(n-6)=12

Distribute 2 to both terms in the ( )

2n-12=12

Add 12 on both sides

2n    =24

Divide both sides by 2

n       =12
