Say you have the fraction 1/2 to the power of 2, so 1/2^2. You could also write this down as: 1/2*(times)1/2 or 0,5*0,5. Whenever you multiply by a number smaller than one, the outcome will get smaller. Whenever you multiply by a number larger than one, the outcome will be larger.

Marley runs 5 yards down the track from point A to point B, and then stops and runs
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

\sqrt{61}=AC or 7.8102=AC

Step-by-step explanation:

If we connect a line from point A to point C we create a triangle, and we can use pythagorean theorem to find this distance. So the line from point A to point C will be our hypotenuse and the other two distances will be out side lengths.

5^{2}+6^{2}=AC^{2}

25+36=AC^{2}

61=AC^{2}

\sqrt{61}=AC or 7.8102=AC

A car travels 250 km east, then turns 25° south of east and goes 115 km. What is the resultant distance traveled?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The distance traveled is 357.54km.

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is illustrated in the figure attached.

From the law of cosines the distance d is given by

d^2 = (250km)^2+(115km)^2-2(250km)(115km)cos(155^o)

d^2 = 127837.698 km^2

\boxed{d = 357.54km}
