Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas draws a triangle with side lengths of 5 centimeters and 12 centimeters and one angle of 90.

If one of the angle is 90 degrees, it would mean that he has drawn a right angle triangle.

Hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle. We can find it using Pythagoras theorem as follows:

h=\sqrt{5^{2}+12^{2}}\\\\=13

The longest side is 13 cm.

If we keep the longest side the same and if two sides i.e. 5 cm and 12 cm are replaced, a new triangle can form.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The maximum number of pounds of potato salad that Charlie can buy is 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Let

a ----> the cost of one tuna sandwich

b ----> the cost of a bottle of apple juice

c ----> the cost per pound of potato salad

x ----> pounds of potato salad

we have

a=\$4.25

b=\$2.25

c=\$4.00/lb

we know that

He wants to buy a tuna sandwich, a bottle of  apple juice, and x pounds of potato salad and can spend up to $8

The inequality that represent this situation is

a+b+cx \leq 8

substitute the given values

4.25+2.25+4.00x \leq 8

Solve for x

Combine like terms

6.50+4.00x \leq 8

Subtract 6.50 both sides

4.00x \leq 8-6.50

4.00x \leq 1.50

Divide by 4 both sides

x \leq 1.50/4.00

x \leq 0.375\ lbs

therefore

The maximum number of pounds of potato salad that Charlie can buy is 0.375

R = rate for the lawn sprinkler

rate of lawn sprinklerand hose would be 5 minutes /r ( rate per minute)

 we would then want to add that to the ratio of the  lawn sprinkler and hose together together which would be 5 minutes for both / 8 minutes for hose
 we want to add those together to equal 100 percent, which can also be written as 1
 so the correct equation would be B) 5/8 + 5/r = 1
