1.08 m. is the answer because you would use the pythagorean theorem to solve it.  
2.8^2+b^2=3^2
7.84+b^2=9
b^2=9-7.84
square root of b^2=square root of 1.16
b=1.08

What is the length of RS.
Natali [406]

Consider, in ΔRPQ,

RP = R (Radius of larger circle)

PQ = r (radius of smaller circle)

We have to find, RQ, by Pythagoras theorem,

RP² = PQ²+RQ²

R² = r²+RQ²

RQ² = R²-r²

RQ = √(R²-r²

Now, as RQ & QS both are tangents of the smaller circle, their lengths must be equal. so, RS = 2 × RQ

RS = 2√(R²-r²)

A coach purchases 47 hats for his players and their families at a total cost of $302. The cost of a small hat is $5.50. A medium
bazaltina [42]
First, we define variables:
 x: small hat
 y: medium hat
 z: large hat
 We now write the system of equations:
 x + y + z = 47
 5.50x + 6y + 7z = 302
 -3x + y = 0
 We can write the system in matrix form as:
 Ax = b
 Where,
 A = [1  1  1; 5.50  6  7; -3  1  0]
 b = [47;  302;  0]
 x = [x;  y ;  z]
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 6
 y = 18
 z = 23
 Answer:
 
the coach did purchase 23 large hats
