Youre purchasing a new television with a 32" screen. the 32" measurement represents the diagonal measurement of the screen. You
remember the height at the store was 16". What is the width of the Tv(rounded tot he nearest inch)
A. 16 inches
B. 28 inches
C. 36 inches
D. 26 inches
1 answer:
Answer:
B. 28 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem.
a^2 +b^2 =c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse (diagonal)
16^2 + b^2 = 32^2
256 + b^2 =1024
Subtract 256 from each side
256-256 + b^2 =1024-256
b^2 = 768
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(768)
b = 27.7128129
Rounding to the nearest inche
b = 28 inches

The baby weighed 7.25 lbs at birth. Eight months later, he weighed 2.5 or 2½ times its birth weight. Multiply 7.25 by 2.5 (which equals 18.125).
So now eight months later, he's 18.125 pounds.
