Answer:

70 yd.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three streets at the intersection form a right triangle.

For a right triangle, the length of the longest side (called hypothenuse) is given by Pythagorean's theorem:

h=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

where

x is the length of the 1st side

y is the length of the 2nd side

h is the length of the hypothenuse

Here we want to find the hypothenuse.

We have:

x = 42 yd (length of the 1st side)

y = 56 yd (length of the 2nd side)

Substituting, we find h:

h=\sqrt{42^2+56^2}=70 yd

3_1/2 divided by 5/8<br> What is the answer
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

28/5 or 5  3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to make the mixed number into an improper fraction, like this:

3 1/2 turns into 7/2

Next you will need to do the reciprocal of division and inverse operation:

7/2 times 8/5

Then solve it:

7/2 * 8/5 = 56/10

Last simplify:

28/5

or

5  3/5

Define natural hazard?

A natural hazard is a natural phenomenon that might have a negative effect on humans and other animals, or the environment. Natural hazard events can be classified into two broad categories: geophysical and biological.

What is the difference between tectonic hazards and weather hazards ?

Tectonic hazards occur when the Earth's crust moves. For example, when the plates move, friction can cause them to become stuck. Tension builds until the plates release, which leads to an earthquake. Climatic hazards occur when a region has certain weather conditions, for example heavy rainfall can lead to flooding.

why do convection currents in the mantle occur?

Heat rising and falling inside the mantle creates convection currents generated by radioactive decay in the core. The convection currents move the plates. Where convection currents diverge near the Earth's crust, plates move apart
