So since its a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem, which is $leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2$ . Since we know that 2 and 3 are our legs and x is our hypotenuse, we can solve the equation as such:

$2^2+3^2=x^2\\ 4+9=x^2\\ 13=x^2\\ \sqrt{13}=x$

Since √13 can't be further simplified, that is your final answer.

Charlotte is driving at 52.7 mi/h and receives a text message. She looks down at her phone and takes her eyes off the road for 4

Answer:

385.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between speed, distance, and time is ...

distance = speed × time

<h3>Compatible units</h3>

The speed is given in miles per hour, but the time is given in seconds and the distance is wanted in feet. This suggests a conversion of speed to feet per second is appropriate.

$\dfrac{52.7\text{ mi}}{\text{h}}\times\dfrac{1\text{ h}}{3600\text{ s}}\times\dfrac{5280\text{ ft}}{1\text{ mi}}=\dfrac{52.7\cdot22\text{ ft}}{15\text{ s}}=77.29\overline{3}\text{ ft/s}$

<h3>Distance</h3>

The distance traveled is the product of this speed and the time period.

$\dfrac{77.29\overline{3}\text{ ft}}{1\text{ s}}\times4.99\text{ s}=385.6937\overline{3}\text{ ft}\approx\boxed{385.7\text{ ft}}$
