Answer:
- amberjack, 21 lbs
- kingfish, 42 lbs
- white marlin, 84 lbs
- tarpon, 105 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let k, a, m, t represent the weights of the kingfish, amberjack, marlin, and tarpon, respectively. The problem statement tells us ...
- k = 2a
- m = 2k
- t = 5a
- k + a + m + t = 252
Using substitution, we can rewrite the last equation as ...
... (2a) + (a) + 2(2a) + (5a) = 252
... 12a = 252 . . . . . collect terms
... a = 21 . . . . . . . . .divide by 12
Then k = 2a = 42; m = 2k = 84; t = 5a = 105.
Answer: To find the third side of a triangle (there are two answers you could get), you need to use the Pythagorean formula: a^2+b^2=c^2. First answer, 3^2+5^2=c^2. Solve for c. c=5.83. The second answer, 3^2+b^2=5^2. Solve for b. b=4.
