Answer:

15.59 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find BC and CD

First find BC

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2

11^2 + BC^2 = 13^2

121 + BC^2 =169

Subtract 121 from each side

121-121+BC^2 = 169-121

BC^2 = 48

Take the square of each side

sqrt(BC^2 ) = sqrt( 48)

BC = 6.92820323

then we need to find CD

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

CD^2 + DE^2 = CE^2

CD^2 + 5^2 = 10^2

CD^2 + 25 =100

Subtract 25 from each side

CD^2 + 25-25 =100-25

CD^2 = 75

Take the square of each side

sqrt(CD^2 ) = sqrt( 75)

BC = 8.660254038


BD = BC +CD

     = 6.92820323 + 8.660254038

     15.58845727

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

11  ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

30 27 22 25 24 25 24 15 35 35 33 52 49 10 27 18 20 23 24 25 30 24 24 24 18 20 25 27 24 32 13 13 21 2 37 35 32 33 29 3 28 28 25 29 31

Number of classes = 5

Class width : Range / number of classes

Class width = (maximum - minimum) / 5

Class width = (52 - 2) / 5 = 50/5 = 10 + 1 = 11

For the frequency table showing class limits, class boundaries, midpoints, frequencies, relative frequencies, and cumulative frequencies and histogram

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

b 125

Step-by-step explanation:

first you know that you have 2 and 5 as similar numbers you both square them so that they become a ratio of area which is 4/25 after you do 4/25=20/x and you do cross multiply then you find 125. hope that helped understand.

INSERT TWO RATIONAL NUMBERS BETWEEN 2 AND 3. How to find them?
Kay [80]
There are an infinite number of them.
Here are a few:

2.1
2.2
2.3
2.3000000001
2.30000000000000006
2.5
2.00009
.
.
etc.

How to find them:

You probably never heard this before, but I'll bet
you'll remember it from now on:

<em>ANY number that you can write down on paper completely, </em><em>using digits
and a decimal point if you need it but no symbols, is a rational number.</em>

If you can write it down completely without any 'comments', then it's rational.
