Cindy has 42 meters of fencing. She plans to fence in a rectangular dog run that is 6 meters wide. How long can the run be made?
nirvana33 [79]
So all sides together are 42 meters.
Two of the sides are 6 meters.
So 42-(2*6) = 30 is left for the other two sides, that's 15 meters per side.

An envelope is 6 in. wide and 4 in. high. Will a card with an 8 in. diagonal fit in it? Identify the correct explanation.
lisov135 [29]
First we have to find the diagonal of the card. We do this by using the Pythagoras theorem: A^2 = b^2 + c^2
= 6^2 + 4^2
=36 + 16
= 52
A^2= 52
Sqrt A^2 = sqrt 52
A = 7.2
Since the envelopes diagonal is 7.2 inches and the card’s diagonal is 8 inches and 7.2<8. Your answer is c)
