A rectangular gate measures 1.2 m by 2.3 m with a 2.4 m diagonal. Is the gate

1 answer:

8 0

It is not a square, square has equal sides.

Using Pythagoras Theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
(1.2)^2+(2.3)^2= c^2
c^2= 6.73
c= 2.594224354214569 (Negative value rejected, length cannot be negative)

Therefore the diagonal should be longer.

Hope it helps :)

Matt was given the problem: "16 is 80% of what?"

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

$\frac{16}{x} = \frac{80}{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To set up this proportion, we know that 16 must correspond with 80% and the x, the number we're looking for must correspond with 100%

$\frac{16}{x} = \frac{80}{100}$

This would be the correct proportion, and you could simplify it to equal

$\frac{16*100}{80}$

A 24,000-gallon pool is being filled at a rate of 50 gallons per minute. At this rate, how many minutes

deff fn [24]

Answer: 480 minutes or 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

24,000 ÷ 50 = 480.

It will take 480 minutes to fill the pool.

480 minutes ÷ 60 is also 8. So it will take 8 hours to fill the pool, or 480 minutes. Whichever one you want to use.

Hope this helps!

<h3>Solving triangles</h3>

Based on the information given, it should be noted that the sine formula will be used.

Therefore, the equation to solve the question will be:

Sin 16° = x/3.5

x = Sin 16° × 3.5

x = 0.2756 × 3.5

x = 0.9646

What is the rational number equivalent to 1.28? The 1.28 has a line above the 28

Svetach [21]

<span>the line over the 28 means the 28 repeats forever.
1.282828.... and so on
let x be the rational number 1.28...
we can use this trick:
100*1.282828....= 128.282828...
(the decimal 28 part repeats) 100x = 128.28...
next: 100x - x = 128.282828... - 1.282828...
the .282828... part will be subtracted away
99x = 127
divide both sides by 99 to get
x= 127/99</span>
