First set up your formula. A squared plus b squared equals c squared. C squared is the hypotenuse. Set it up like this;

24 squared plus b squared equals 40 squared.

576 plus b squared equals 1600

B squared equals 1600 - 576

B squared equals 1024

Then you square root it

The answer is 32.

H^2=x^2+y^2

y^2=h^2-x^2

y^2=40^2-24^2

y^2=1024

y=√1024

y=32 ft

Which lines have slope -4/5 and contain point (0,1)?
Oksanka [162]
I believe it was BC, to find that answer, you simply find the point (0,1) where 0 is x and y is 1. There were two lines which made me not think twice but since it is negative, the lines should be going to the left side rather than the right. So the slope which is y over x of -4/5, to find that, you count up 4 and over 5

It takes a hose 2 minutes to fill a rectangular aquarium 12 inches long, 13 inches wide, and 14 inches tall. How long will it ta
rusak2 [61]

Volume of the first aquarium =  (12" x 13" x 14") = 2,184 inches³

Volume of the second aquarium = (32" x 34" x 35") = 38,080 inches³

The second aquarium has (38,080 / 2,184) = 17.44 times as much
volume as the first aquarium has.

So it'll take the hose  17.44 times as long to fill the second one

                              =  (17.44) x (2 minutes)  =  34.9 minutes.
