Answer:

The length AB is 23.4in

Step-by-step explanation:

N/B please see the attached detailed diagram for your reference and better understanding

This problem bothers on the mensuration of flat shapes.

The width AB is the chord of the wheel

The radius of the whee r= 25/2= 12.5in

The depth of the wheel in the puddle is 8.1in

Let b be the distance from the surface AB to the diameter

b= 12.5-8.1  = 4.4in

Applying the formula

Chord Length = 2 *√(r²-b²)

=2*√(12.5²-4.4²)

= 2*√(156.25-19.36)

=2*√(136.89

=2*11.7

=23.4in

Kamil and Sean share some money in the ratio 3:5. Sean gets $56 more than Kamil. How much do they get each?
liq [111]
Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).

Kamil and Sean are in the ratio:        3:5

That means:    x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5

x / (x + 56) = 3/5

5*x = 3*(x + 56)

5x = 3*x + 3*56

5x = 3x + 168

5x - 3x = 168

2x = 168

x = 168 / 2

x = 84

Therefore Kamil had, x = 84,  and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 =  140

Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140

Novosadov [1.4K]
So you first need to calculate 8y 2 which is basically 8x2 which equals 16 then add 16y + 17y which is 33 so your answer is 33y+2
