Apply Pythagorean theorem

  • H²=9²+5²
  • H²=81+25
  • H²=106

So

  • x²=106+4²
  • x²=106+16
  • x²=122
  • x=√122
  • x=11.04≈11

Answer:

√(122)

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras Theorem:  a² + b² = c²

(where a and be are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

First, find the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle with legs of 9 and 5 units:

⇒ 5² + 9² = c²

⇒ 25 + 81 = c²

⇒ c² = 106

⇒ c = √(106)

Therefore √(106) is the longest leg of the other triangle.

So we can now use this measurement to find x (the hypotenuse) of the other triangle:

⇒ 4² + √(106)² = c²

⇒ 16+ 106 = c²

⇒ c² = 122

⇒ c = √(122)

lana [24]

Answer: 22.55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the train be n

4 × 62 = 248 which is the distance travelled by the car in 4 hours and the train travelled in 11 hours

11 × n = 248

11n = 248

n = 248/11

n = 22.55mph

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Actual volume=3,773,000 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale 1:35

Actual Width=Model Width×Scale factor=(2×35)=70 inches

Actual Length=Model Length×Scale factor=(11×35)=385 inches

Actual Height=Model Height×Scale factor=(4×35)=140 inches

Actual volume =(Base Area×Height)=Length×width×height=(385×70×140)=3,773,000 in³

Actual volume=3,773,000 in³

How can i show 5/8 is greater than 3/8
Serjik [45]
The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.

I have two other ways:

Way #1:

5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.

We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.

There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.


Way #2:

-- Get 2 friends to help you.

-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.

-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
   Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.

-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
   Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.

-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
