We need to use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse

47^2 + 18^2 = c^2

c = sqrt(2533)

c = 50.33 

The length of the wire is 50.33 meters.

(See attached image.)

Justice hopes to build a fence around his garden he measures and determined that he needs 24 feet of fencing when he arrives at
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

It  will cost  $72 Justice to fence in his garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the fencing around the garden =  24 feet

Cost of fencing per inch = $0.25

Now, as we know 1 foot  =  12 inches

⇒  24 feet =  24 x 12 inch  = 288 inches

⇒ 24 feet  =  288 inches

Hence, the total length of  fencing   =  288 inches.

Now, Total cost of Fencing

=Total length of fencing x Cost of fencing par inch

=  288 inches x ($0.25)

=  $ 72

or, the total cost of fencing = $72

Hence, it  will cost  $72 Justice to fence in his garden.

All about simulitious equations​
Korolek [52]

Answer:

On occasions you will come across two or more unknown quantities, and two or more equations

relating them. These are called simultaneous equations and when asked to solve them you

must find values of the unknowns which satisfy all the given equations at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The solution of a pair of simultaneous equations

The solution of the pair of simultaneous equations

3x + 2y = 36, and 5x + 4y = 64

is x = 8 and y = 6. This is easily verified by substituting these values into the left-hand sides

to obtain the values on the right. So x = 8, y = 6 satisfy the simultaneous equations.

2. Solving a pair of simultaneous equations

There are many ways of solving simultaneous equations. Perhaps the simplest way is elimination. This is a process which involves removing or eliminating one of the unknowns to leave a

single equation which involves the other unknown. The method is best illustrated by example.

Example

Solve the simultaneous equations 3x + 2y = 36 (1)

5x + 4y = 64 (2) .

Solution

Notice that if we multiply both sides of the first equation by 2 we obtain an equivalent equation

6x + 4y = 72 (3)

Now, if equation (2) is subtracted from equation (3) the terms involving y will be eliminated:

6x + 4y = 72 − (3)

5x + 4y = 64 (2)

x + 0y = 8

The current in a simple electric circuit varies inversely as the resistance. If the current is 20amps when the resistance is 5 o
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

0.5amps

Step-by-step explanation:

I is inversely proportional to resistance

I = k/R

k = I/ R

k = 20/5

k = 4

This means that, I = 4/R

So, when R = 8ohms,

I = 4/8

 =0.5amps
