You simply have to add the two numbers together, however, you have to convert everything into inches only. You know that there are 12 inches in one foot. To calculate the length of the longer slide, it is simply doing 12 feet TIMES 12 (since there are 12 inches in one foot). This makes 144 inches. Add 1/2 feet in there, this is adding 1/2 of 12 inches, which is 12/2=6 inches. The long slide is therefore 144+6= 150 inches. Now you want to convert 3 feet and 7 inches into inches only. 3 feet TIMES 12 = 3x12=36 inches. Add 7 inches to this, and you will get 36+7=43 inches. To know how long the small slide is, subtract 43 inches from 150 inches, and this will give you 150-43=107 inches. So, the small slide is 107 inches. :)

A right triangle has one side that measures 4in. The angle opposite that side measures 80 degrees. What is the length of the hyp
Crazy boy [7]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

4/sin(80)

which is approximately 4.06



Discussion:

From the triangle, not drawn too accurately  (see attachment)


sin(80) = side opposite /hypotenuse   =>

sin (80) =  4/c            =>       multiply both sides by "c"

c sin(80) = 4/c * c      =>      

c sin(80) = 4               =>      divide both sides by sin(80)

c = 4/sin(80)

and 4/sin(80) is approximately 4.06


Thank you,

Use the cross product property to solve each equation: 5/7 = x/9
enot [183]

Answer:

x = 45/7

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5}{7} =\frac{x}{9}

Here, you can more easily see what the fractions look like.

In order to cross-multiply, you have to multiply 5 with 9, and 7 with x.

45 = 7x

Then, you isolate x by dividing 7 on both sides:

45/7 = x

Hope I helped :)

There are 12 face cards in a standard deck of 52 cards. How many ways can you arrange a standard deck of 52 cards such that the
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Total number of required ways = 12 × 51!

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of total cards in the deck = 52

Number of face cards in the deck = 12

Now, we need to find the number of ways such that the first card is always a face card

Now, first card is face card so number of cards left to be arranged = 52 - 1 = 51

Number of ways to arrange 51 cards = 51!

Also, Number of face cards = 12

So, Total number of required ways = 12 × 51!
