Answer:
Ted will need cups of pretzels to make 15 cups of trail mix.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ted is making trail mix for a party. He mixes 1 1/2 cups of nuts, 1/4 cup of raisins, and 1/4 cup of pretzels.
So, 1/4 cup of pretzels to make 1 trail mix
x cups of pretzels to make 15 trail mix
Using the ratio and proportional
∴ x = (1/4) * 15 = 3.75 = cups.
<u>Ted will need </u><u> cups of pretzels to make 15 cups of trail mix.</u>
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
the total of two packages (2b) is less than 22
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Let c = hypotenuse = 2x
One of the legs = x. Let a or b = x.
I will let a = x. We can then say that b = 3.
3^2 + x^2 = (2x)^2
9 + x^2 = 4x^2
9 = 4x^2 - x^2
9 = 2x^2
9/2 = x^2
sqrt{9/2} = sqrt{x^2}
3/sqrt{2} = x
Rational denominator.
[3•sqrt{2}]/2 = x = a
Side 3 is given to be 3 feet. So, b = 3.
Hypotenuse = 2x
Hypotenuse = 2([3•sqrt{2}]/2)
Hypotenuse = 3•sqrt{2}
Understand?
The three sides are 3, [3•sqrt{2}]/2 and
3•sqrt{2}.
This is a triangular prism.
The lateral faces are triangles; this means that the two bases are parallel to one another. This makes it a prism instead of a pyramid.
The bases being triangles makes it a triangular prism.
I believe it is C is the answer
