Answer:

F) 4√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude of the triangle creates a right triangle.  The right triangle has a leg of 4 and a hypotenuse of 8.  Using the Pythagorean theorem,

a²+4² = 8²

a²+16 = 64

Subtract 16 from each side:

a²+16-16 = 64-16

a² = 48

Take the square root of each side:

√(a²) = √(48)

a = √(16*3)

a = 4√3

a^2 + 4^2 = 8^2 --> a = 4·√3

The solution is where the red line crosses the blue line, which on the X axis is between the 1 and the 2, so about 1.5.

Convert the fractions to decimal and see which one is  close to 1.5:

13/8 = 1.625

25/16 = 1.5625

7/4 = 1.75

27/16 = 1.6875

The closest one to 1.5 is 25/16

the first Indianapolis 500 auto race took place in 1911. the winning car covered the 500 miles in 6.7 hours. what was the winnin
Vesna [10]

Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

                         =        (500 miles)      /    (6.7 hours)

                         =            (500 / 6.7)  (mile/hour)

                         =                    74.63 miles per hour.

I imagine there were quite a number of pit stops included in that.

This is faster than I expected when I first read your question.
That's really gettin' with it for cars in 1911 !
