Answer:

<u>4 meters.</u> 

Step-by-step explanation:

Benjamin has walked two legs of a right triangle, so you can connect her two movements with a line if you were sketching the situation.. The displacement is the objects overall change in position in relation to its origin, so in your case, Benjamin's apartment. While the total distance adds up regardless of her position. 

So, the total distance Benjamin walked is 10m + 6m = 16m 

Her displacement can be found by your best friends, the Pythagorean Theorem: 10m ^2 + 6m ^2 = delta x^2 (or displacement squared).. giving you a displacement of 11.66, or 12 m.

The difference between the distance she walked and her displacement is 4 meters. 

I hope this helps. If you have any more questions, please feel free to post them and someone will be able to help you, whether it's myself or others. Please leave a like, rating, and if possible, Brainliest. Have a great day!

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 48

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that AE is 6 and ED is 8, since it forms a triangle, use the Pythagorean theorem to find AD, which is one side of the rectangle.

The Pythagorean theorem says that a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

a is AE, b is ED, and c is AD, so 6^2 + 8^2 = c^2, 36 + 64 = c^2, 100 = c^2, 10 = c, so AD is 10

The area of the triangle is half of AE times ED, so 1/2(6)(8) = 1/2(48) = 24, the area of the triangle is 24.

Since the area of a triangle is 1/2 of the base times the height, we can figure out the height:

A = 1/2bh, 24 = 1/2(10)h, 24 = 5h, 4.8 = h, so the height of the triangle (and rectangle) is 4.8.

The height of the triangle is also the height of the rectangle:

The area of the rectangle is 4.8*10 = 48

A 15 ounce alloy containing 30% gold was mixed with an alloy containing 5% gold to get an alloy containing 20% gold. How many ou
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

4.5 % alloy

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = amt of 30% alloy

The resulting total is to be 25 oz, therefore:

(25-x) = amt of 5% alloy:

A typical mixture equation:

.30x + .05(25-x) = .20(25)

.30x + 1.25 - .05x = 5 .30x - .05x = 5 - 1.25

.25x = 3.75

x = 3.75%2F.25

x = 15 oz of 30% alloy required

then

25-15 = 10 oz of 5% alloy:

Check solution

.30(15) + .05(10) = .20(25)

4.5 + .5 = 5
