Answers

Answer 1

Answer: so 60 fruitsthe ratio is apples to oranges=3:2they are simplified so they have 3 apple units to 2 orange unitstherefor60=2+3=5 fruit unitsdividd 60 by 5 to find 1 fruit unit60/5=12apples=3 unitsapples=3 times 12=36oranges=2 unitsoranges=2 times 12=2436 apples and 24 oranges

Answer 2

Answer: ok so 3:2 is just the ratio and is a simplified answer and I am going to divide 60÷2 and 60÷3 to get my answer. So 60÷2=30 and 60÷3=20 so another way of saying 3:2 is 20:30 and since it is apples to oranges, there is 20 apples and there is 30 oranges.

The legs of a right triangle are 4 units and 7 units. What is the length of the hypotenuse?A. square root 33 units
B. square root 65 units
C. 33 units
D. 65 units

Answers

Pythagorean theorem states that the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the legs of the right angled triangle.

Here, we are given that:

The legs of a right triangle are 4 units and 7 units.

By Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse²=4² +7²

= 16+49

= 65

⇒ Hypotenuse= $√(65)$

Hence, Correct option is:

B. square root 65 units

the square root of 65 units
