For this case, we have to form a rectangular triangle. Where the hypotenuse is 45 feet and the base of the triangle is 27 feet. We must find the height.

By the Pythagorean theorem, we have that the height is given by:

h = \sqrt {H ^ 2-b ^ 2}

Where:

h: Height

H: Hypotenuse

b: Base

Summarizing the values:

h = \sqrt {45 ^ 2-27 ^ 2}\\h = \sqrt {2025-729}\\h = \sqrt {1296}\\h = 36

Thus, the height is 36 feet.

Answer:

36 feet.

Find the area of the shaded region. Round to the nearest hundredth when necessary.
dusya [7]
Answer: 423.11 m^2


Step by step explanation:

Area of a circle formula pi*r^2

First solve the area of the big circle

3.14*21^2=1384.74 m^2

Now find the are of the smaller circle

r=21-3.5=17.5
3.14*(17.5)^2=961.63 m^2

Now we can minus the small area off the big area to get the shaded area.

1384.74-961.63=423.11 m^2

So the area of the shaded region is 423.11 m^2

1. Y varies inversely with x. If y = 9 when x = -5, find the value of x when y=-6.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 )  Y∝ 1 / X

Y = k / X

Y = 9 , X = -5

Putting the values in the relation above

9 = k / - 5

k = -45

Y = - 45 / X

Put Y = - 6

- 6 = - 45 / X

X = - 45 / -6

= 7.5

Luke and Nora can peel 12 carrots in 5 minutes

in 1 minute Luke and Nora can peel 12 / 5 carrot

in 1 minute Luke alone   can peel 12/ 11 carrot .

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel (12 / 5 -  12/ 11  ) carrot

(12 / 5 -  12 / 11  )

= 2.4 - 1.1

= 1.3 carrot

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 1.3 carrot

1.3 carrot in 1 minute

8 carrot in 8 / 1.3 minute

= 6.15 minutes.

In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 8 carrot in 6.15 minutes working alone.
