gg easy


the legs of a triangle are related as a^2+b^2=c^2 wehre a, b, and c are the legs and the hypotonuse of a triangle respectively


let's find some stuff

one easy way is to find a rational value for c find values of a and b

lets pick c=5

a^2+b^2=5^2

a^2+b^2=25

now split up 25 into 2 things that don't have rational square roots

if we say a^2=19 and b^2=6 then we get

a=\sqrt{19} and b=\sqrt{6} (which are both irrational)

Ramon wants to plant cucumbers and tomatoes in his garden. He has room for
yarga [219]

Answer:

Number of Cucumbers = 12

Number of Tomatoes = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of cucumber be c and number of tomatoes be t

Since he has room for 16 plants, we can write:

c + t = 16

He wants to plant 3 times as many cucumbers as tomatoes. We can write:

c = 3t

We can substitute this in 1st equation and solve for t:

c + t = 16

3t + t = 16

4t = 16

t = 16/4 = 4

And c = 3t

c = 3(4) = 12

Number of Cucumbers = 12

Number of Tomatoes = 4

A 4/7 inch pipe is to be shortened to 3/8 inch. How much must be removed?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

11/56 inches or 0.196 inches must be removed.

The pipe measures 4/7 inches but needs to be reduced to 3/8 inches.

In order to find out the inches to be removed, you must subtract the length that the pipe should be from the length that it currently is.

<em>Length to be removed = 4/7 - 3/8</em>

You need a common denominator so find the lowest common factor of both denominators:

= 56

In the shared fraction, multiply the numerator by the number you get when you divide 56 by the denominator.

= 56/7 = 8                                      8 x 4 = 32

= 56 / 8 = 7                                    7 x 3 = 21

= (32 - 21) / 56

= 11 / 56 inches

= 0.196 inches

In conclusion, 11/56 inches must be removed to get the pipe to 3/8 inches

Lisa is 10 centimeters taller than her friend Ian. Ian is 14 centimeters taller than Jim. Every month, their heights increase by
bekas [8.4K]
Let Lisa's height be x, Ian's be y and Jim's be z
x = 10 + y . . . (1)
y = 14 + z . . . (2)
y + 14 + z + 14 = 170 + x + 14
y + z - x = 170 + 14 - 28 = 156 . . . (3)
From (2), z = y - 14 . . . (4)
Putting (1) and (4) into (3) gives,
y + y - 14 - 10 - y = 156
y = 156 + 24 = 180

Therefore, Ian's height is 180 centimeters

A rectangular yard is fenced in using 319 feet of custom fence Your friends really like the fence and decide to fence in their y
Vsevolod [243]

We have been given that a rectangular yard is fenced in using 319 feet of custom fence Your friends really like the fence and decide to fence in their yard using the same fence.  Their yard is similar but has a scale factor of 8/5 times the size of  yours.

We are asked to find the length of fence that your friends should purchase.

Since the size of your friend's yard is \frac{8}{5} times your yard, so your friend should purchase \frac{8}{5} times the 319 feet.

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}=\frac{8}{5}\times 319\text{ ft}

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}=8\times 63.8\text{ ft}

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}=510.4\text{ ft}

Upon rounding our answer to nearest foot, we will get:

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}\approx 510\text{ ft}

Therefore, your friends should purchase 510 feet of fence and option C is the correct choice.
