Suppose a spider was able to create one thread that would extend from the top-right back corner of a room to the bottom-left fro

nt corner. Approximately how long would that thread need to be for the room below to the nearest tenth of a foot? The path of the spider's thread is shown with a dotted line. (Hint: You will use the Pythagorean theorem twice.)

Answer:

d^2 = 30^2 + 12^2

e^2 = d^2 + 8^2

e^2 = 30^2 + 12^2 + 8^2

e = √(30^2 + 12^2 + 8^2) = 33.3 ft

Answer:

33.3 feet to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

WE first need to find the length of the diagonal (d) across the bottom of the room.

d^2  = 30^2 + 12^2 = 1044.

Now applying Pythagoras theorem to the triangle whose hypotenuse (h)  is the path of the spider:

h^2 = d^2 + 8^2

= 1044 + 64

= 1108

h = √1108

= 33.3 feet.

The graph shows two lines, A and B.
EastWind [94]

Answer:


Part A: one solution:

Part B: x = 3, y = 4.


Explanation:


1) Part A: how many solutions does the pair of equations for lines A and B have?


The solution of a system of equations in a graph is given by the intersetion of the curves that represent the equations.


In this case, there are two straight lines, which intersect in one and only one point.


Hence, the system has one solution.


2) Part B: what is the solution to the equations of lines A and B?


The solution is the pair of coordinates of the intersection point. It is (3, 4).


Therefore, the solution is x = 3, y = 4.

Aleks [24]
4x - 57 + 3x + 25 + 2x - 3 + 4x + 3x + 15 = 540
16x - 20 = 540
16x = 560
x = 35

carlene bought 8 1/6 yards of ribbon to decorate a shirt. she only used 5 1/2 yards. how much ribbon does she have left
777dan777 [17]
To make things simple you can first find out what 8 1/16 is. 8 1/16 is approximately 8.0625. Then find what 5 1/2 is which is 5.5. Now all you have to do is subtract 5.5 from 8.0625 (8.0625-5.5) and that should be equal to 2.5625.
