If you simplify this problem out, it should equal out to be,simplified, 3h+18.
Factored 3(h+6). And it's not a perfect square. (Random)
The first column is the ratio you start with. The next column in the table should be the reduced fraction. To properly reduce a fraction, you divide the same number on the top and bottom of the fraction. Melody instead subtracted 1 in the top and bottom of the fraction to reduce it. She should have divided the top and bottom by 2 to get the second column of 1 pound of turkey and 3 people served.
The final column is designed to be the answer to the initial question of how many people are fed by 15 pounds of ground turkey. Starting with column 2 (the reduced ratio of 1/3), multiply the top by 15 to get 15 pounds of ground turkey. Then do the same to the bottom of the fraction. 3 x 15 = 45 people fed.
So the table should have been
Pounds of turkey 2 1 15
People served 1 3 45
Melody's overriding error was in believing that adding or subtracting numbers to both the top and bottom of a ratio/fraction keep its value the same. Instead, only multiplying or dividing the top and bottom by the same number creates an equivalent fraction.
Answer:
13.3
Step-by-step explanation:
f² = e² + g² - 2(e)(g)cos(F)
f² = 9² + 18² - 2(9)(18)cos(45)
f² = 175.8974029
f = 13.262631982
Answer:
1) 36 square units.
2) 190 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
As you can see, the figures are trapezoids, therefore, you can calculate the area of each one of them with the following formula:

Where:
<em>B</em> is the longer base,<em> b</em> is the shorter base and <em>h</em> is the height.
Then:
1) 

2)
