To find that divide the pounds of fish by the number of packages.
43/5=8.6
therefore 8.6 pounds of fish would be in each package.

Find the value of x .. assume that segments that appear to be tangent are tangent .

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

sqrt(277) =x

x is approximately 16.64331698

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle since 14 is tangent to the circle and 9 is a radius

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem

a^2 +b^2 =c^2

9^2+14^2 =x^2

81+196 = x^2

277 = x^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(277) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(277) =x

If h(x) = 4x – 3 and p(x) = x2 – 3x, find p(-3)<br><br> 18<br> 0<br> -3

navik [9.2K]

Answer: p(-3)=18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find p(-3), you plug -3 into p(x) and solve.

p(-3)=(-3)²-3(-3) [exponent]

p(-3)=9-3(-3) [multiply]

p(-3)=9+9 [add]

p(-3)=18

Now we found that p(-3)=18.

Sam is flying a kite. The length of the kite string is 80 meters, and it makes an angle of 75° with the ground. The height of th

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

THE HEIGHT OF THE KITE FROM THE GROUND=80mtr

Step-by-step explanation:

let H be the height of kite from ground

$\sin\theta$ = $\frac{height}{hypotenuse}$

$\sin\90$ = $\frac{H}{80}$

1= $\frac{H}{80}$

H=80meters

Felicia places a rectangular rug that measures 10 feet by 11 feet in a triangular room with a base of 30 feet and height of 22 f

arsen [322]

Answer:

1. Area of rectangular rug is $110 ft^{2}$

2. Area of triangular room is $330ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of flat shapes, rectangle and triangle.

step one

let us start by solving for the area of the rectangular rug

given data

Area A = ?

Length l = 11 ft

Width w= 10 ft

we know that the area of a rectangle is expressed as

$Area=Length * Width$

substituting our given data we have

$Area= 11*10\\Area= 110 ft^{2}$

step two

let us solve for the area of the triangular room

given data

Area A = ?

base b = 30 ft

height h= 22 ft

we know that the area of a triangle is expressed as

$Area= \frac{1}{2} *base* height\\$

substituting our given data we have

$Area= \frac{1}{2} * 30* 22\\Area=\frac{660}{2} \\Area= 330 ft^{2}$

How can Pythagorean theorem be used to find distance in a coordinated plane?

iVinArrow [24]

You can always draw a right-angled triangle where the sloped side c is the line between the two points of interest, and a and b are the sizes of the horizontal and vertical lines.

Then apply c = √(a²+b²)
