Answer: h=5.66ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe the picture attached.

Find the value of "x" and "y" using the Pythagoren Theorem:

a^2=b^2+c^2

If you solve for "a":

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

Where "a" is the hypotenuse and "b" and "c" are the legs.

In this case, for "x" you know that:

a=x\\b=8ft\\c=2ft

Then, the value of "x" is:

x=\sqrt{(8ft)^2+(2ft)^2}\\\\x=8.24ft

For "y" you can see that:

a=10ft\\b=8.24ft\\c=h

Subsituting values and solving for h, you get:

(10ft)^2=(8.24ft)^2+h^2\\\\h=\sqrt{(10ft)^2-(8.24ft)^2} \\\\h=5.66ft

(x+7)(x+3) so therefore you set each equation = 0...
x + 7 = 0
x + 3= 0
and solve
x = -3
x = -7

Answer:

Option A. one rectangle and two triangles

Option E. one triangle and one trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

we know that

The area of the polygon can be decomposed into one rectangle and two triangles

see the attached figure N 1

therefore

Te area of the composite figure is equal to the area of one rectangle plus the area of two triangles

so

A=(8)(4)+2[\frac{1}{2}((8)(4)]=32+32=64\ yd^2

step 2

we know that

The area of the polygon can be decomposed into one triangle and one trapezoid

see the attached figure N 2

therefore

Te area of the composite figure is equal to the area of one triangle plus the area of one trapezoid

so

A=\frac{1}{2}(8)(4)+\frac{1}{2}((4+8)(8)=16+48=64\ yd^2

If a phone card is used to make a long distance phone call, you are charged $0.50 per call plus an additional $0.31 per minute.
Nikitich [7]

Part A: c for cost. c=0.31m+0.5

0.31m is the cost per minute. 0.5 is cost per call.

Part B: 0.31m+0.5=5.15 to solve we must rearrange.

subtract 0.5 from each side giving us 0.31m=4.85

divide by 0.31 giving us m=15.65

Evaluate abc² if a= -3, b= 6, and c= -8​
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

-1152

Step-by-step explanation:

abc² the expression can be rewritten using the given values for each letter

(-3)*6*(-8)^2 now we find the second power of (-8) by multiplying it with itself

(-8)*(-8) = 64

(-3)*6*64 = -1152
