A^2+b^2=c^2
7^2+15^2=c^2
49+225=c^2
274=c^2
√274 = √c^2
16.55=c
Your missing side is 16.55 units long.

A jar of marbles contains the following: two purple marbles, four white marbles, three blue marbles, and two green marbles. What
Llana [10]

Answer:

4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of marbles = 2(purple) + 4(white) + 3(blue) + 2(green)

                                          = 11

Number of white marbles = 4

Probability of selecting a white marble =

         number of white marbles/total number of marbles in the jar

         = 4/11

A base ball diamond is square.The distance from home plate to first base is 90 feet.what is the distance from home plate to seco
Elena-2011 [213]

Because it is square, the distance from home to first base is the same as first base to second base.


Home to First is one side of a right triangle, first to second is the second side of the right triangle and then home to second base would be the hypotenuse of a right triangle.


Using the Pythagorean Theorem we can solve for the hypotenuse:

Let C = the hypotenuse:

90^2 + 90^2 = c^2

8100 + 8100 = c^2

16200 = c^2

c = √16200

c = 127.279 feet, round to 127 feet.

A rectangle has a length of 45 inches less than 4 times its width. if the area of the rectangle is 3325 square inches, find the
Maru [420]

The length of the rectangle is based on its width, so let's call width w and put the length in terms of the width. We are told that the width is 45 less than 4 times the width, so the length is 4w - 45. Area is found by multiplying length times width and we are given the area as 3325. So we will set up length times width and solve for w, which we will then use to solve for l. 3325 = (4w - 45)(w). Multiplying out we have 3325=4w^2-45w. Move the constant over by subtraction and then we will have a quadratic that can be factored to solve for w. 4w^2-45w-3325=0. We would put that through the quadratic formula to solve for w. When we do that we get that w = 35 and w = -23.75. The 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative is time and distance/length, so -23.75 is out. That means that the width is 35. The length is 4(35) - 45 which is 95. The dimensions of your rectangle are length is 95 and width is 35. There you go!

two years of local internet service cost $685 including the installation fee of $85 what is the monthly fee?
zimovet [89]
2 years is the same as 24 months, so the equation would be:
685 = 24x + 85, where x is the monthly fee.
600 = 24x
600/24 = x
x = 25
The monthly fee is $25.
