4.5 boxes of nails are required for finishing 2 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

3.4 boxes of nails are required for finishing 1.5 tables

Required:

How much boxes of nails would he use for finishing 2 tables

Solution:

We can solve using Unitary Method:

Nails needed to finish 1.5 tables = 3.4 boxes

Nails needed to finish 1 table = $\frac{3.4}{1.5}\,\,boxes$

Nails needed to finish 2 tables = $\frac{3.4}{1.5}*2 =4.5\,\,boxes$

So, 4.5 boxes of nails are required for finishing 2 tables.

Solve for x. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

babymother [125]

Using the law of cosine:

Cosine(angle) = Adjacent leg / Hypotenuse

You are given the angle, and the adjacent leg and need to solve for X, which is the hypotenuse.

Using the formula above you have:

Cosine(58) = 17 / x

Solve for x by dividing 17 by cos(58)

x = 17 / cos(58)

x = 32.08

Help answer please!!

Answer:

h = 19.7 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagoras Theorem

$(Hypotenuse)^2 = (Base)^2 + (Perpendicular)^2\\\\(20)^2=(3.5)^2+(h)^2\\400=12.25+h^2\\400-12.25=h^2\\387.75=h^2\\$

Now we take square root on both sides,

$\sqrt{387.75} =\sqrt{h^2}\\19.69=h\\h=19.7\ ft\\$

so the value of h equals 19.7 ft.

What value of B makes the expression. x² + Bx + 81 a perfect square trinomial?

Oxana [17]

Answer:

B.) 18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the correct b value we use this formula

b² - 4ac = 0

b = What we are solving for

a = 1

c = 81

b² - 4(1)(81) = 0

b² - 324 = 0

b² = 324

$b = \sqrt{324}$

b = ±18

And 18 is one of the answer choices

So B.) 18 is the correct answer.

What is the perimeter and area of 9ft width and 8ft Long?

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Perimeter = 34ft Area = 72ft squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of an object is all of it's sides combined. Because you stated two values, I assumed your shape is a rectangle. So the perimeter would be:

8 + 8 + 9 + 9 = 34

The area is length times width, so:

8 x 9 = 72

Because it is area, the units are squared.
