Answer:

D) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

−9 + 12 + (unknown) + −8 = −1

<em>Start by going through and testing each option</em>

−9 + 12 + 2 + −8 =

3 + 2 + −8 =

5 + −8 =

−3

−3 ≠ −1

<em>A) 2 is not possible.</em>

−9 + 12 + −2 + −8 =

3 + −2 + −8 =

1 + −8 =

−7

−7 ≠ −1

<em>B) </em>−<em>2 is not possible.</em>

−9 + 12 + −4 + −8 =

3 + −4 + −8 =

−1 + −8 =

−9

−9 ≠ −1

<em>C) </em>−4<em> is not possible.</em>

<em>From this, D is looking like the answer. But to be sure, test it.</em>

−9 + 12 + 4 + −8 =

3 + 4 + −8 =

7 + −8 =

−1

−1 = −1

A rectangular field is 50 yards wide and 100 yards long. Patrick walks diagonally across the field. How far does he walk
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Patrick walk approximately <u>112 yards</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A rectangular field is 50 yards wide and 100 yards long.

Patrick walks diagonally across the field.

Now, to find the distance he walk.

Length of the field = 100 yards.

Width of the field = 50 yards.

Now, to get the diagonal distance we put formula:

Diagonal = \sqrt{length^2+width^2}

Diagonal = \sqrt{100^2+50^2}

Diagonal = \sqrt{10000+2500}

Diagonal = \sqrt{12500}

Diagonal = 111.80

Therefore, Patrick walk approximately 112 yards.
