Mathematics

Elena L [17]3 years ago
5 0

Did you notice the little box with corners marked in the angle down at the bottom ?
That angle is a right angle, and <em>this triangle is a right triangle</em> !

This piece of information is a big help.  It breaks the problem wide open.
You know that in order to find the longest side of a right triangle . . .

-- Square the length of one short side.
-- Square the length of the other short side.
-- Add the two squares together.
-- Take the square root of the sum.

One short side=48.           Its square = 2,304.
The other short side=48.  Its square = 2,304.
Add the two squares:        2,304 + 2,304 = 4,608

The square root of the sum = √4,608 = <em><u>67.88</u></em> (rounded)

Yesterday, Sharon read 14 pages of a book. Today, she continued reading the book at the same speed. She read 10 pages in 35 minu
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Sharon spent a total of 49 minutes yesterday reading the book

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the rate at which she reads

The total number of pages she reads at any given time interval can be expressed as;

T=P×m

where;

T=Total number of pages she reads

P=the rate at which she reads in number of pages per minute

m=total number of minutes she takes reading a book

In our case;

T=10 pages

P=p

m=35 minutes

replacing;

10=p×35

p=10/35

p=(10/35)

The rate at which she reads=(10/35) pages per minute

Step 2: Calculate the time she spent reading the book yesterday

Yesterdays variables are as follows;

T=14 pages

p=(10/35) pages per minute

m=unknown

replacing;

14=(10/35)×m

m=14×(35/10)

m=49

A boat can travel with a speed of 13 km/hr in still water. If the speed of the stream is 4 km/hr, find the time taken by the boa
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

t=4h

Steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

speed of boat with respect to earth:  13  km

speed of stream with respect to earth:  4 km

13 km/h + 4 km/h = 17 km/h The time to travel 68 km with this speed is thus t = 68 km 17 km h = 4 h

T) -7x+10y=20. M) -3x+y=-2 - ,
2(8x-5y)=35(2) -1(x+y)=-6(-)

-7x+10y=20. -3x+y=-2
16x-10y=70. -x-y=6

9x=90. -4x=4
[x=10] [x= -1]

-7(10)+10y=20. -3(-1)+y=-2
-70+10y=20. 3+y=-2
10y=90. [y= -5]
[y=9]
