The area of the shaded triangle formed as the result of the overlap is = 62.35 inches ²

<h3>Calculation of the equilateral triangle</h3>

After folding the rectangle with length of 12 inches and width of 18 inches, an equilateral triangle was formed.

An equilateral triangle is a type of triangle where by all the three sides are equal.

To determine the value of one of the sides, CB or CD is used because the folding didn't affect these sides.

Using the formula for the area of an equilateral triangle,

A = √¾ a²

a= 12 inches

A = √¾ ×12²

A = 62.35 inches ²

In the Itty Bitty High School, there are 85 students. There are 27 students who take French, 51 who take Geometry and 38 who tak

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

58 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Total = 85$

$French = 27$

$Geometry = 51$

$History = 38$

$None = 5$

$All = 2$

Required

Students that take only 1 subjects

The attached image illustrates the question.

For French only (x), we have:

$x + 7 -2+10-2+2=27$

$x + 15=27$

Collect like terms

$x =- 15+27$

$x =12$

For Geometry only (y), we have:

$y+10-2+15-2+2=51$

$y+23=51$

Collect like terms

$y=-23+51$

$y=28$

For History only (z), we have:

$z +15-2+7-2+2=38$

$z +20=38$

Collect like terms

$z =-20+38$

$z =18$

Students with one subject is then calculated as:

$1\ subject = x+y+z$

$1\ subject = 12 + 28 + 18$

$1\ subject = 58$

Use the distance formula distance, to find the distance to the nearest tenth , between each pair of points A(6,2) and D(-3,-2)

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The distance between A and D to the nearest tenth is;

$9.8\text{ units}$

Explanation:

Given the two points;

$A(6,2)\text{ and D(-3,-2)}$

Applying the distance between two points formula;

$d=\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

substituting the given coordinates we have;

$\begin{gathered} AD=\sqrt[]{(-3-6)^2+(-2-2)^2} \\ AD=\sqrt[]{(-9)^2+(-4)^2} \\ AD=\sqrt[]{81+16} \\ AD=\sqrt[]{97} \end{gathered}$

Simplifying;

$\begin{gathered} AD=9.8488578 \\ AD\approx9.8 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the distance between A and D to the nearest tenth is;

$9.8\text{ units}$

skelet666 [1.2K]

you would use 1.5 packets, but that requires 2 packets.

1 packet in total would feed 8 people, and half of another would feed an extra 4. 4+8 = 12.
