Answers

Answer 1
Answer: so use pythagorean theorem to find the  straight distance between hhouses

legs are 6 and 8

a^2+b^2=c^2
6^2+8^2=c^2
36+64=c^2
100=c^2
squrer root both sides
10=c

the distance=10 miles

A chicken casserole recipe serves 12people and calls for 3 cups of
spinach. If you want to adjust the
recipe to serve 18 people, how many
cups of spinach should you use?

Answers

Answer:

4.5 cups of spinach

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The recipe serves 12  people and calls for 3 cups of  spinach

so

using proportion

Find out how many  cups of spinach should you use, to serve 18 people

(12)/(3)\ (people)/(cups) =(18)/(x)\ (people)/(cups)\n\nx=18(3)/12\n\nx=4.5\ cups

Midpoint Formula:Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment joining the given
1. (0, 2) and (6,4)​

Answers

The coordinates of the midpoint of the segment joining the two points (0, 2) and (6, 4)​ is (3, 3)

Solution:

Given that two points are (0, 2) and (6, 4)​

To find: coordinates of the midpoint of the segment joining the two points

The midpoint of line joining two points is given as:

For a line containing two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2)

\text {Midpoint}(x, y)=\left((x_(1)+x_(2))/(2), (y_(1)+y_(2))/(2)\right)

In the given sum, two points are (0, 2) and (6, 4)​

x_(1)=0 ; y_(1)=2 ; x_(2)=6 ; y_(2)=4

Substituting the values in given formula,

\begin{array}{l}{\text {Midpoint}(x, y)=\left((0+6)/(2), (2+4)/(2)\right)} \n\n {\text {Midpoint }(x, y)=\left((6)/(2), (6)/(2)\right)=(3,3)}\end{array}

Thus the required midpoint is (3, 3)

What is 1 and 3/4-7/10

Answers

1 (3)/(4) - (7)/(10)
We first have to change the mixed number into a fraction and we do this by multiplying the denominator to the whole number and adding the product to the numerator.
It looks something like this:
1 (3)/(4)
4×1=4         (Multiply the denominator and the whole number)
4+3=7         (Add the product and the numerator)
(7)/(4) 
Keep the same denominator 
Now that we have the improper fraction, we can subtract.
(7)/(4) -  (7)/(10)
Now in order to subtract we have to have a common denominator, so lets make both of the denominators 20.
(7)/(4) × (5)/(5)(35)/(20)
(7)/(10) × (2)/(2)(14)/(20)
(35)/(20) -  (14)/(20) =  (21)/(20)
21÷20=1.05 or 1 (1)/(20)
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Hope that helped :)
first turn 1 3/4 into an improper fraction

1x3=3+4=7
7/4-7/10

now make a common denominator

the common denominator is 20 so do 4x5=20 and 10x2=20

do the same to the numerators 7x5=35 and 7x2=14

35/20-14/20

the answer as an improper fraction is 21/20 and as a mixed number it is 1 1/20

Henry can build 2 birdhouses in 30 minutes. How many birdhouses can he build in four hours? A)
4 birdhouses


B)
8 birdhouses


C)
12 birdhouses


D)
16 birdhouses

Answers

4 hours is 8 half hours 
8*2 is 16 so the answer is d

Hope this helps :)
Ok So, He's making 2 birdhouses in 30 minutes, A Hour is 60 Minutes. So that equals 4 birdhouses a hour, So you would just simply think "Ok, So 4,8,12,16 Ok so the Answer is 16." The the answer is D i hoped this helped.
