Answer:

the question states if necessary, round the nearest tenth and by using the pythagoras theorem the answer should be 10 since its 9.21 and its nearest 10th is 10? im not quite sure though

Answer:

≈ 9.2

Step-by-step explanation:

using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let x be the third side ( hypotenuse ) , then

x² = 7² + 6² = 49 + 36 = 85 ( take square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{85} ≈ 9.2 ( to the nearest tenth )

marin [14]

Find minutes per mile by dividing time by distance:

45 minutes / 6 miles = 7.5 minutes per mile

Now multiply his speed by each distance:

7.5 x 9 = 67.5 minutes

7.5 x 15 = 112.5 minutes

Now subtract the two:

112.5 - 67.5 = 45 minutes more

A square has a side length of x inches. Each side of the square will be increased by 8 inches to create a larger square. If the
Norma-Jean [14]
X = 2

A square has 4 sides. To get the perimeter of a square, you could multiply the length of one side by 4.

One side of the larger triangle is x inches plus an additional 8 inches, which can be written as (x+8)

To get the perimeter of the larger square, multiply the expression (x+8) by 4. The question states the larger square’s perimeter is 40 inches.

You end up with this equation: 4(x + 8) = 40

To solve first distribution 4 into (x + 8).
4x + 32 = 40 | subtract 32 from both sides
4x = 8 | divide each side by 4
x = 2 inches

So the side length of the original square is 2 inches. To check your work, go back and plug x = 2 into the original equation. 8 in + 2 in = 10 inches, and 10 inches x 4 = 40 inches, so x = 2 is the solution

Line a is parallel to line b, m∠1=2x +44, and m∠5x+38. Find the value of x.
Soloha48 [4]

2x + 44 = 5x + 38
5x - 2x = 3x
44 = 3x + 38
44 - 38 = 6
6 = 3x
2 = x
