Have a look at the image attachment. I've added the points A, B, C, D such that
A = base of the diving board pole, or location of the pool deck
B = the location 1.6 meters directly above point A
C = location of the person's eyes
D = diving board location
The goal is to find the length of segment AD

We are given
AB = 1.6
BC = 3.67
what we want to find is
BD = x

Due to the fact we have similar right triangles ABC and CBD, we can form the proportion below and solve for x
AB/BC = BC/BD
1.6/3.67 = 3.67/x
1.6*x = 3.67*3.67
1.6*x = 13.4689
1.6*x/1.6 = 13.4689/1.6
x = 8.4180625

So BD is 8.4180625 meters
Use this to find the length of AD
AD = AB + BD
AD = 1.6 + 8.4180625
AD = 10.0180625
which rounds to 10.0 meters when rounding to the nearest tenth (one decimal place)

the Hamilton eighth-grader took a trip to Myrtle beach. They drove a speed of 60 miles per hour. The trip was 570 miles. Write a
Leni [432]

Answer:

9.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Your general equation is this:

y = mh + b

There is no b value because there is no starting value of miles.

y is the total number of miles driven. m is the amount of miles per hour. h is the number of hours.

570 = 60h

To find h, divide both sides by 60.

h = 9.5 hours

Hope this helps!
