There is no exact answer to this. It will have to shown in terms of the width. Also we need to use the Pythagorean Formula

Givens
L = 10 * W
W = W

Formula
L^2 + W^2 = C^2

Solution
(10W)^2 + (W^2) = C^2
C^2 = 100W^2 +W^2
C^2 = 101W^2 Now take the square root.
C = sqrt(101W^2)
C= W*sqrt(101) <<<<< Answer. I think this is what they mean

A test is worth 100 points. The test is made up of 40 items. Each item is worth either 2 points or 3 points. Which matrix equati

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Total number of points in the test = 100

Total number of items in the test = 40

Let number of items of 2 points be x and number of items of 3 points be y.

Now, using the given information the situation can be represented by using the following equations :

⇒ x + y = 40 .........(1)

⇒ 2x + 3y = 100 .........(2)

The matrix equation is :

$\begin{bmatrix}1 & 1\\ 2& 3\end{bmatrix}\cdot \begin{bmatrix}x\\ y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}40\\ 100\end{bmatrix}$

By solving the equation (1) and equation (2), we get :

Solution : x = 20 and y = 20

Describe how to transform (^6 sqrt x^5)^7 into an expression with a rational exponent.

solniwko [45]

$\bf a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} \implies \sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}} \qquad \qquad
\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}\implies a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\left(\sqrt[6]{x^5}\right)^7\implies \left( x^{\frac{5}{6}} \right)^7\implies x^{\frac{5}{6}\cdot 7} \implies x^{\frac{5\cdot 7}{6}}\implies x^{\frac{35}{6}}$

Which of these situations can be represented with an integer that, when combined with the opposite of 8, makes 0?

Lerok [7]

-8
On the number line if you are at positive 8 and add -8 you will lose 8 and get zero! Hope this helps!
