B sqrt(17)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using pythagoras theorem
Answer:
114.75
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6x3=18
- 8x10=80
- 8.5
- Add all together, you get = 229.5
- Divided by 2 you get = 114.75
Remark
This is a very interesting question. Draw a line from the origin to where the upper right vertex of the square touches the line. That line has the property that the its equation is y = x. So the "solution" to the point of intersection is the solution of the two equations.
y = x (1)
3x + 4y = 12 (2)
Put x in for y in equation 2
3x + 4x = 12
7x = 12
x = 12/7
x = 1.714
y = 1.714
Problem A
<em><u>x intercept</u></em>
The x intercept occurs when y = 0
3x + 4(0) = 12
3x = 12 Divide by 3
x = 12/3
x = 4
the x intercept = (4,0)
<em><u>y intercept</u></em>
The y intercept occurs when x =0
3(0) + 4y = 12
4y = 12
y = 12/4
y = 3
y intercept = (0,3)
Problem B
x and y both equal 1.714 so they are also the length of the square's side.
Problem C
See solution above. x =y is the key fact.
x = y = 1.714
Answer:
Steve gave his mother $75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Steve earned a total of $125. Sixty percent of that went to his mother. Convert 60% into the equivalent decimal fraction and multiply as indicated:
0.60($125) = $75
Steve gave his mother $75.
Area for triangles is 1/2b * h.
If 8m were the height, then the area is 24 sq m.
If 6m were the height, then the area is still 24 sq m.
The area is 24 sq m.
Hope this helps! Have a great day :)
