The rate is 240 square feet per hour.

EXPLANATION

Firstly, we know that for every 1.5 hours, there is 360 square feet painted. To find how much can be painted in 1 hour, we need to find the half-hourly rate, by dividing 360 by 3, to give us 120 square feet. We then take this away from 360 to give us the hourly rate, which is 240 square feet per hour.

Hope this helps!

Find the values of x and y given that ABCD is congruent to EFGH.

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

x=7 , y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+65 = 135

or, 10x = 70

so, x = 7

Now,

4y-4=28

or, 4y = 32

so, y = 8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Numerator</h3>

(3x)(3x) = 9x^2

√9x^2 = 3x

Numerator = 3x

<h3>Denominator</h3>

√18y^2 = √18 · √y^2

√18 = 3√2

√y^2 = y

3√2y

Denominator = 3√2y

Now we need to rationalize the denominator, and get rid of the square root on the bottom

$\frac{3x}{3\sqrt{2} y}$ * $\frac{3\sqrt{2} }{3\sqrt{2}}$ = $\frac{6x\sqrt{2} }{12y}$ = $\frac{x\sqrt{2} }{2y}$

Suppose a triangle has 3 sides, 3, 4, 6 which of the following must be true

Inessa [10]

Answer:

B. the triangle in question is not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

A 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle, so this one, with its longer longest side, is an obtuse triangle. It is not a right triangle.

___

3, 4, 5 is one of the first Pythagorean triples that you learn:

3² + 4² = 5²

These are the side lengths of the smallest right triangle with integer sides. It is worthwhile to remember. This triple is used not only in many math problems (such as this one), but also in real life when it is useful to lay out a right angle.
