The length of the support cable is about 29 feet.

If you sketch out the question, you will see that it will form a right triangle with the cable as the hypotenuse.

Just set up and use the Pythagorean Theorem.

15^2 + 25^2 = c^2
850 = c^2
29.15 = c

Juan rode 72 km on his bike in 4 hours. Find the unite rate.
Westkost [7]

Answer:

18 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate, we must find the rate in kilometers per hour.

Let’s divide the total kilometers by the total number of hours.

unit rate = kilometers/hours

Juan rode 72 kilometers in 4 hours.

unit rate = 72 kilometers/ 4 hours

unit rate = 72 km/4 hrs

unit rate = 18 km / hr

The unit rate is 18 kilometers per hour.
