WOW that's tough to read all squished together!!!

Jayden and Sheridan both tried to find the missing side of the right triangle. A right triangle is shown. One leg is labeled as 7 centimeters. The hypotenuse is labeled as 13 centimeters.

Jayden's Work

Sheridan's Work

a2 + b2 = c2

a2 + b2 = c

272 + 132 = c272 + b2 = 132

49 + 169 = c

249 + b2 = 169

218 = c2b2 = 120

Square root 218 equals square root c squared.

Square root b squared equals  

square root 120.

14.76 ≈ cb ≈  

10.95Is either of them correct?  

***************************************************

In a right triangle

hypotenuse^2 = leg1 ^2 + leg2^2

13^2 = 7^2 + leg2^2

leg2^2 = 120

leg 2 = 10.9544511501

Basically, whoever said 10.95 is correct.

baherus [9]
1) Graph a straight segment that starts at the point (0, 1000) and (200/13 , 0)

That segment is in the first quadrant and is like a ramp going downward from left to right.

2) a) slope = - 65 is the change in y (the # of miles remaiing) per miles run (change in x). It is negative because when the Vieras have increase the distance run (x), the distance remaining (y) decreases.

b) the y - intercept (1000) representes the distance from the starting point (Philadelphia) fo the destiny (Orlando), i.e. the distance in miles remaining before departing (when x =0).

If you need the geometry and trigonometry I'll post those.  Instead I found an answer at this link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMAT6450/Class%20Projects/Scarpelli/Scarpelli_MathematicsBaseballActivity.....
The distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet and from home plate to second base is <span>127.28 feet.
Pitcher's Mound to 2nd base = </span><span> <span> <span> 66.78</span> </span>f</span>eet

Given those distances, we KNOW a 50 foot sprinkler will NOT reach home plate and second base from the pitcher's mound.

I didn't figure out the pitcher's mound to 1st or to 3rd, since the question is already answered.
