You threw the baseball 40 feet.

This can be represented as two right triangles.  The legs of your friend's triangle, the forward distance and distance right, are 15 and 20.  Using the Pythagorean theorem, we find the diagonal distance from your friend's starting point:

20²+15²=c²
400+225=c²
625=c²

Take the square root of both sides:
√625=√(c²)
25=c

The legs of your right triangle are 12, your distance forward, and 9, your distance right:
12²+9²=c²
144+81=c²
225=c²

Take the square root of both sides:
√225=√(c²)
15=c

The total diagonal distance is 25+15=40 feet.

To find this answer it is best to draw it out. Please see the attached picture. You will end up needing to find it 2 hypotenuse. I have shown how to find the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean theorem. You add these together to find the distance the baseball is thrown. The answer is 40 feet.

Answer:

1047.2 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 4(pi)(r³/3)

V = 4(pi)(125/3)

V = 523.6 cubic inches (1 ball)

V = 2(523.6) = 1047.2 cubic inches (total)

Answer:

Sakura spoke for 2 minutes in Hungarian and for 3 minutes in Polish

Step-by-step explanation:

So make the variables.

Hungarian = x

Polish = y

x  and y are the amount of time she spent in minutes.

x + y = 5

150x + 270 = 190y

x = 5 - y

750 - 150y + 270 = 190y

1020 = 340y

y = 3

x = 2

We know that February has either 28 or 29 days, but there is a year in the future, February will have 30 days
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The year 2020 is a leap year, which means February will have 29 days rather than 28, and the overall number of days will be 366 rather than 365. This was also the case in 2016, and the year 2024 will be a leap year once more.

HELP DUE IN 10 MINS! Solve for x in the parallelogram below:<br><br> x=??
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent, then

5x - 9 = 3x + 11 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 9 = 11 ( add 9 to both sides )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10
