Answer:
Explanation:
1. By driving 6 miles each, the cars will be 6 miles + 6 miles = 12 miles appart.
2. When one car stops and the other car makes a 90° left-hand turn and drive 8 miles, you can model the situation with a right triangle, where one leg is 12 miles, the other leg is 8 miles, and the hypotenuse is the distance that separates the cars.
Hence, you must use Pythagoras to find that distance.
3. Pythagoras
- hypotenuse² = leg₁² + leg₂²
- hypotenuse = (12 mile)² + (8 mile)² = 144 mile² + 64 mile² = 208 mile²
, which is rounded to the neartest tenth of a mile.
Each dvd cost $7.50 how? Your friends buy 8 dvd's and in total is 60, you want to divide 60 from 8 and find that it's 7.50 and then multiply 8 to 7.50 and it should be 60. Hope this helps!!
Answer:
m*p/n = percent
Step-by-step explanation:
m% of n is what percent of p?
We can use ratios
m percent
------- = ---------------
n p
Using cross products
m*p = n * percent
Divide each side by n
m*p/n = percent
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Similar Triangles</u>
By looking at the construction of the figure, we can safely assume both triangles are similar, i.e. their internal angles are equal and their sides are proportional. Following the proportion of the heights and bases of both triangles we can set this relationship:
Simplifying both fractions
Solving for x
