Answer:

  7.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the side length of the square. The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relationship to the diagonal length is ...

  (10 cm)² = s² +s² . . . . the sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse

  100 cm² = 2s² . . . . . . simplify

  50 cm² = s² . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  √(50) cm = s ≈ 7.1 cm . . . . . take the square root

The length of a side of the square to the nearest tenth is 7.1 cm.

1. What is your current debt ratio as a percentage to the nearest hundredth? 2. Which balance accrues the most interest in a mon
cestrela7 [59]
The current debt ratio here is 45.70%. If you add up all the debts you have 3655.65 which is 45.70% of the total of 8000.

The card that accrues the most interest is the second one, "Cred". To find those amounts multiply the rate by the balance and divide by 12.

Joes age (j) is half Martha’s (m). Combined, their age is 42. What are their ages?
svp [43]

Answer:

Joe is 14.

Martha is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the variables and information from the question to make equations.

If Joe's age is half Martha's:

(1/2)m = j     OR     2j = m

If their ages combined is 42:

m + j = 42

We can substitute the equation m=2j into equation m + j = 42, replacing "m".

m + j = 42    Substitute m for 2j

2j + j = 42     Combine like terms, terms with same varables

3j = 42     Divide both sides by 3 to isolate j

j = 14       Joe's age

Since j = 14, we can substitute it into equation m=2j to find "m".

m = 2j       Substitute j for 14

m = 2(14)     Simplify

m = 28       Martha's age

Therefore Joe is 14 and Martha is 28.

Help please and explain how to get the answerm
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

147 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

all the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. so, you must perform the operation 180-(83+64) which equals 33. this is the angle supplementary to angle 1. to find angle 1, you must subtract 180 and 33 since supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees. this is equal to 147 degrees.
