A baby gains 11 pounds in its first year of life. The baby gained 4 1/4 pounds during the first four months and 3 1/2 pounds in its second four months. how many pounds did the baby gain in the last four months?

3.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 4 (1/2) + 3 (1/2) = 11

x + 4.25 + 3.5 = 11

x + 7.75 = 11

x = 11 - 7.75

x = 3.25 pounds

it is x equals 3   plese mark me really need it

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus
