1. sqrt 52 = 7.211 rounds to 7
2. irrational number
3. sqrt 441 = 21....rational
4. 12^2 + 3^2 = h^2
144 + 9 = h^2
153 = h^2
sqrt 153 = h
12.4 = h <===
5. 6^2 + b^2 = 18^2
36 + b^2 = 324
b^2 = 324 - 36
b^2 = 288
b = sqrt 288
b = 16.97 rounds to 17 <==
6. 39^2 + 52^2 = c^2
1521 + 2704 = c^2
4225 = c^2
sqrt 4225 = c
65 = c
(39 + 52) - 65 = 91 - 65 = 26 miles shorter <==
7. 4^2 + b^2 = 16^2
16 + b^2 = 256
b^2 = 256 - 16
b^2 = 240
b = sqrt 240
b = 15.49 rounds to 15.5 <==
8. ?
Let p and w represent the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, respectively.
.. speed = distance/time
.. p +w = 720/3 = 240
.. p -w = 720/4 = 180
Add the two equations to eliminate w.
.. 2p = 420
.. p = 210
.. w = p -180 = 30
The speed of the wind is 30 mph.
The speed of the plane in still air is 210 mph.
The answer is 14.33333 but you will have to round which you will just have 14.3
Answer:
2 - 5x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer is in the problem:
2 less than = 2 minus a number ( 2- )
five times a number = 5x ( we don't know what number five is being multiplied by, so we put a variable)
