The floor of a rectangular living room is 18 feet by 24 feet. What is the distance between opposite corners of the living room?

Mathematics

Answer:

The distance between opposite corners of the living room is 30ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be thought of as a right triangle and we want to know its hypotenuse

To calculate one side of a right triangle from the other 2 sides we have to use Pythagoras

h = hypotenuse

a = leg 1 = 18ft

b = leg 2 = 24ft

h² = a² + b²

we replace the known values

h² = (18ft)² + (24ft)²

h² = 324ft² + 576ft²

h² = 900ft²

h = √(900ft²)

h = 30ft

The hypotenuse is 30ft

Find the perimeter of a regular octagon if one of its sides is x + 6 and another side is 14 – x.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

  80 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a regular octagon are all the same length.

  x +6 = 14 -x

  2x = 8 . . . . . . add x-6

  x = 4

  x+6 = 10 . . . . the length of each of the 8 sides

P = 8s = 8(10) = 80

The perimeter of the octagon is 80 units.

Alicia receives 2/5 of a $120 gift, and Jason receives 1/3 of the gift. What is the ratio of Jason's share to Alicia's share? Ex
maria [59]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find Alicia's share of the gift. To do this, all you have to do is multiply 120 by 2/5, which is 40%. 120 * 40% (0.4) is 48. Alicia's share is $48.

Step 2: Find Jason's share of the gift. In this case, divide 120 by 3. 120/3 is 40. Jason's share is $40.

Step 3: Express the numbers as a fraction and simplify it. 40/48 is the common fraction. Find the GCF of 40 and 48. When you solve for it, the GCF is 8. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 8. 40/8 is 5/ 48/8 is 6. There. 5/6 is our simplified fraction, which is the ratio.

A cylinder has a volume of 320 pi cu. in. and a height of 5". Find the radius of the cylinder. ...?
Kruka [31]
The volume of a cylinder can be calculated by the product of the area of the base times the height of the shape. It is expressed as follows:

V = πr²h

We calculate as follows:

320π in³=  π (r²) (5 in)
64 in² = r²
r = 8 in

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
