21.6 units

Calculate the length of the 2 inclined sides using the distance formula

d = √(x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 4 )

d = √(3 + 3 )² + (4 - 3)² = √(36 + 1 ) = √37

repeat for (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 3 )

d = √(3 + 3 )² + (- 3 - 3 )² = √(36 + 36 ) = √72

the vertical side has a length of 7 units

perimeter = √37 + √72 + 7 = 21.6 ( nearest tenth of a unit )

Travka [436]

Answer:

3.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation $f(x)=-0.3x^{2}+2x$ shows the height of water [ $f(x)$ ] and horizontal distance [ $x$ ].

Given the horizontal distance is 4 feet, they want to know the height.

Simply put 4 in $x$ of the equation and solve for $f(x)$ . So,

$f(x)=-0.3(4)^{2}+2(4)\\f(x)=3.2$

So, the height of the water was 3.2 feet above the ground.

A quadrilateral with 90 degree angles is shown. The lengths of the left and right sides are 10 and 2 y + 4. The lengths of the t

notka56 [123]

Answer: y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quadrilateral has 90 degree angles, it must be a a square or a rectangle. This means the measure of sides left and right are the same and the measure of sides top and bottom are the same.

To get the measure of y, you can use left and right or top nd bottom.

I'll use left and right. 10=2y+4 => 10-4=2y => 6=2y => y=3

You can check it by substituting. 2(3)+4=10 The answer is the measure of the right side, which is the same as the measure of the left side.

I hope this helps you!

Find the surface area of the sphere with the given dimension. Leave your answer in terms of π. Sphere with radius of 60 m.

prohojiy [21]

The surface area of a sphere is given by $A=4 \pi r^{2}$ where r represents the radius.

As the radius is given as 60 meters we replace r with 60 in the formula above to get the surface area.

$A=4 \pi ( 60^{2} )=14400 \pi$
