Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle is as follows,

\sqrt{a^{2} } +b^{2}

The line is supposed to be longer on the rooting but it won't go any longer so we just have to make do.

Anyways, a is 1 side length and b is the other. Doesn't matter which one you make b or a.

Now you just plug in and solve

\sqrt{9} +25 (that's after you square it)

add them

\sqrt{34}

simplify

5.83095189485

you can just stop at the hundredths place

5.83

You can estimate that it's about 6

and 6 is your answer

There is a L-shaped sidewalk that is 158 meters long. By cutting across the lawn, the
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Each side of the L-shaped sidewalk is 126 m and 32m respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total length of the sidewalk = 158 meters

Cutting across the lawn the distance = 130 meters

The L-shaped lawn will be treated as a right angled triangle.

So the 130 m distance is the hypotenuse here.

Let one side of the L-shaped lawn be 'x' meter so the another side will be (158-x) meters.

Applying Pythagoras formula.

(Hypotenuse)^2=(height)^2+(base)^2

So,

⇒ (130)^2=x^2 +(158-x)^2

⇒ (130)^2=x^2+(158-x)(158-x)

⇒ 16900=x^2+24964-158x-158x+x^2

⇒ 16900 =2x^2-316x+24964

⇒ 2x^2+316x+24964-16900=0

⇒ 2x^2-316x+8064=0

⇒ x^2-158x+4032=0

Applying quadratic formula;

Quadratic formula : \frac{\pm b \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} where a=1 and b=-158 and c=4032

So the value of x= 126 and 32.

The length of each side of the sidewalk is 'x'= 126 m and '(158-x)'='(158-126)'=32 m

Find each of the following for ​
KATRIN_1 [288]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a)

          f(x+ h)=8x+8h+3  

(b)

            f(x+ h)-f(x)=8h          

(c)

             \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=8

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a function f(x) as :

              f(x)=8x+3

(a)

           f(x+ h)

We will substitute (x+h) in place of x in the function f(x) as follows:

f(x+h)=8(x+h)+3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)=8x+8h+3

(b)

       f(x+ h)-f(x)              

Now on subtracting the f(x+h) obtained in part (a) with the function f(x) we have:

f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-(8x+3)\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-8x-3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8h

(c)

           \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}            

In this part we will divide the numerator expression which is obtained in part (b) by h to get:

           \dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{8h}{h}\\\\i.e.\\\\\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=8

A farmer is going to divide her 30 acre farm between two crops. Seed for corn costs $15 per acre. Seed for wheat costs $30 per a
Deffense [45]

Answer:

$3200

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area of land is 30 acre. Let x represent the area in acre that corn is planted and y represent the area in acre that wheat is planted. Therefore:

x + y = 30               (1)

Also, the farmer can spend at most $750 on seeds. Corn cost $15 per acre, maize cost $30 per acre. Hence:

15x + 30y ≤ 750      (2)

Also, x and y > 0

The profit is given by the function:

Profit = 100x + 110y

Graphing equation 1 and equation 2 and solving, we get the points:

(10, 20)

Hence the maximum profit is at:

Max profit = 100(10) + 110(20) = $3200
