Answer:
Width of the box = 18.97 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the bat = 36 inches.
That means length of the diagonal of the bat (BC) = 36 inches
By applying Pythagoras theorem in right triangle BDC,
BC² = BD² + CD²
BC² = (30)² + w² -------(1)
BY applying Pythagoras theorem in right triangle ABC,
AC² = AB² + BC²
(36)² = 6² + BC²
By substituting the value of BC from equation (1),
(36)² = 6² + (30)² + w²
1296 = 36 + 900 + w²
w² = 1296 - 936
w = √360
w = 18.97 inches
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 1)
m = = -
, thus
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (- 1, 2), then
2 = + c ⇒ c = 2 -
=
y = - x +
← in point- slope form
Multiply through by 4
4y = - x + 7 ( add x to both sides )
x + 4y = 7 → b
