A parachutist falls at a speed of about 12 miles per hour. Find this speed in feet per second

Mathematics

So in 1 hour, the parachutist will fall 12 miles or
12 mi/1hour

convert
1 hour=60 mins
1 min=60 seconds
1 hour=60 times 60 seconds=360 seconds
12 miles per 360 seconds


convert miles to feet
5280 feet per mile
12 miles times 5280=63360 feet

63360/360
do the math and simplify
63360/360=6336/36=176

176 feet per second

The area of a rectangle is 108 m2 and its diagonal is 15 m. Find
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

47.6m.

Step by step solution:

Perimeter of a triangle = base + 2 . length____(1)

Area of a triangle = 1/2 . base . diagonal

108 = 1/2 . base . 15

multiplying both sides by 2:

216 = 15 . base

dividing both sides by 15:

base = 14.4m

But the diagonal divides the triangle into two

right angle triangles each with the same length (hypotenuse),base and diagonal(height).

Taking one right angle triangle:

And using pythagoras theorem;

length² = base² + diagonal ²

length² = 7.2² + 15²

Note: Base of each right angle triangle is 7.2 which would sum up to be 14.4 the base of the full triangle.

length² = 276.84

taking the square root of both sides:

length = 16.6m

Putting the values of the base and length into equation (1).

Perimeter of the triangle = 14.4 + 2 . 16.6

Note: We are dealing with the whole triangle

now hence the base is 14.4m.

Perimeter of the triangle = 14.4 + 33.2 = 47.6m.

Simplify by using order of operations: 4 + (9∙2) ÷ (4 - 1) - 4
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Use <u>PEMDAS</u>

P = parenthesis

E = Exponents

M = Multiplication*

D = Division*

A = Addition**

S = Subtraction**

*either can come first, it just depends which comes first in the equation.

**either can come first, it just depends which comes first in the equation.

<em>Step 1 : Write equation</em>   4( 9 × 2 ) ÷ ( 4 -1 ) - 4

<em>Step 2: Solve in parenthesis   </em>4(18) ÷ (3) - 4

<em>Step 3: Solve multiplication   </em> 72 ÷ 3 - 4

<em>Step 4: Solve division               </em>24 - 4

<em>Step 5 : Solve subtraction</em>         20
