Answer:
sqrt(277) =x
x is approximately 16.64331698
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right triangle since 14 is tangent to the circle and 9 is a radius
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem
a^2 +b^2 =c^2
9^2+14^2 =x^2
81+196 = x^2
277 = x^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(277) = sqrt(x^2)
sqrt(277) =x
44.4 miles per hour. You just divide 300 and 6.75 (Think as the 3/4 as quarters each 1 is .25) then you will get 44.4. To check your answer you would multiply 44.4 and 6.75 and get 299.7. This is not 300 but when you round that .7 to the nearest 10 you will get 300. Hope this helped.<span />
Divide the total amount charged by the number of hours worked, and you have $/hour
$168÷14 hours = $12/hour
You have to explain how you knew to use 55 and 120, not another option.
Hope it helped! :)
