Answer:

d. 29ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagoras theorem which states that

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the opposite and adjacent sides of a right angled triangle and c is the hypotenuse side

From the attached image, Let the length of the rope be x

x^{2} = 8^{2}+ 28^{2} \\

x^{2} = 64 + 784

x^{2} = 848

x =\sqrt{848}

x = 29.12

x≈29

Answer:

1.03

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a prism, find the area of the base and multiply it by the height.

The base is an octagon. The area is found A = 2(1+\sqrt{2})a^2. Substitute a = 0.5.

A = 2(1+\sqrt{2})(0.5^2)\\A = 4.828...(0.25)\\A = 1.21

The volume is 1.21*2.5 = 3.025.

However, there are three holes drilled out half way which each have volume 0.06.

The volume is found as V = πr²h. Substitute r = 0.125 which is half the diameter of 0.25. Since they go half way, the height is h = 1.25.

V = π(0.125)²(1.25) = 0.06.

Since there are 3, they equal 3*0.06 = 0.18.

Subtract this from the volume.

1.21 - 0.18 = 1.03
