Answers

Answer 1
Answer: You can use pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Side1^2 + Side2^2 = Hypotenuse^2
So 3^2 is 9. 9+9 is 18 and the square root of 18 comes out to about 4.24 which rounds to 4.2. The answer would be B.

Jen wants to buy a dress that originally had the price of $33, but now it is on sale 10% off. How much will Jen pay for the dress?

Answers

you multiply 33 by 0.9 because it's minus 10% (0.1) and the answer is $29.7
You would multiply 33 by 0.9, because you're taking 10% away and 100%-10% is 90% which is 0.9. And that equals 29.7 So the answer is: Jen will pay $29.7!

1/10 and 8/100 which is the correct sum

Answers

To add 1/10 and 8/100, they must have the same denominator.

To do this, multiply 1/10 by 10/10 (which equals one, so it doesn't change the value of the fraction).

Now you have 10/100 and 8/100. To add them, simply add the numerators and keep the denominators the same.

This results in 18/100, which can be simplified to 9/50.
