Answer:

  70.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle formed by home plate, first base, and second base is an isosceles right triangle with hypotenuse 100 ft. Then the side length (base-line distance between bases) is (100 ft)/√2 ≈ 70.7 ft.

___

For an isosceles right triangle with side lengths 1, the hypotenuse can be found from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...

  hypotenuse = √(side² + side²) = √(1²+1²) = √2

Then the diamond distances satisfy the proportion ...

  hypotenuse/side = 100 ft/(base distance) = √2/1

or ...

  base distance = (100 ft)/√2 ≈ 70.71068 ft

What is the square root of 100 times two divided by two
gogolik [260]

Answer:

10 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

√((100 * 2)/2)

Simplify. First, follow the Parenthesis. Combine 100 with 2

100 * 2 = 200

Next, divide by 2

200/2 = 100

Root 100

√100 = √10 * √10 = 10

10 is your answer

~

An easier way to solving this is to first cancel out the 2's ( multiplying 2 and dividing 2 would do nothing), and just square rooting 100, giving you the answer 10.

A chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 7% vinegar, and the second brand co
Lina20 [59]

Answer: There is 162 ml of first brand and 108 ml of second brand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of vinegar that the first brand contains = 7%

Percentage of vinegar that the second brand contains = 12%

Percentage of vinegar in mixture = 9%

Total amount of dressing = 270 ml

We will use "Mixture and Allegation":

First brand                  Second brand

     7%                                12%

                       9%

--------------------------------------------------------

12%-9%             :                9%-7%

 3%                   :                    2%

So, ratio of first brand to second brand in a mixture is 3:2.

So, Amount of first brand she should use is given by

\dfrac{3}{5}\times 270\\\\=162\ ml

Amount of second brand she should use is given by

\dfrac{2}{5}\times 270\\\\=108\ ml

Hence, there is 162 ml of first brand and 108 ml of second brand.
