Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the television is 40 inches and the length is 71.5 inches.

Part A

The part of the right angle triangle that you have been given are the legs which are also the opposite and adjacent sides. You are looking for the hypotenuse

Part B

The Pythagorean theorem is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

The equation becomes

Hypotenuse² = 40² + 71.5²

Part C

Length ² = 1600 + 5112.25

Length ² = 6712.25

Length = √6712.25

Length = 81.9 inches

Part D

The size of the television is 82 inches

Un deposito de agua tiene forma de prisma rectangular con los lados de la base de 25 y 20 metros. Calcula la altura que pueda co
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

La altura del depósito para que pueda contener 1000 metros cúbicos de agua es 2 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Para calcular el volumen de un prisma rectangular, es necesario multiplicar sus 3 dimensiones: longitud*ancho*altura. El volumen se expresa en unidades cúbicas.

En este caso, se conoce la longitud y el ancho, cuyos valores son 25 y 20 metros. A su vez, se sabe que el depósito de agua debe contener 1000 m³. Entonces, siendo:

Volumen= longitud*ancho*altura

Y reemplazando los valores se obtiene:

1000 m³= 25 m* 20 m* altura

Resolviendo:

1000 m³= 500 m²* altura

altura=\frac{1000 m^{3} }{500 m^{2} }

altura= 2 m

<u><em>La altura del depósito para que pueda contener 1000 metros cúbicos de agua es 2 m.</em></u>

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Domain → 0 < x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Sasha sells T-shirts and earns a fixed amount plus a commission by selling each shirt. (As given in the table)

Table attached shows a linear function (A regular increase in total pay with the increase in number of shirts sold)

So the input values of the table (Number of shirts sold) will represent the domain of the linear function.

Hence, reasonable domain for the function will be → 0 < x < 5
