I need help with this and I don’t understand it

Lets break it down:

The bottom right picture shows an approximation of what 1 wingspan length is, and the goal is to <u>estimate </u>lengths.

A. 1 wing is approx. 7 meters. To find the wingspan of the plane just do 7 meters multiplied by 2 = 14 meters (approx wingspan). Now we convert (remember, to the nearest foot!)

14 meters = 45.93 ft

Round it to the nearest foot = 46 ft is your approx. wingspan.

B. The height. This is one is a little tricky! Lets try to use what we know:

1 wing is approx. 7 meters. Since these are approximations, lets say half of one wing is <u>roughly</u> the size of the height of the plane. Since these are approximations I'd say 4 meters.

4 meters = 13 ft (rounded).

<em>I checked online for the specs of the Lysander and the exact height is 14 ft 6 in and wingspan is 50 ft. </em>This means our approximations were correct!

C. The length would be 10 ft + 7 meters

10 ft = 3 meters (rounded)

3 meters + 7 meters = 10 meters

<em>(converting to meters then to ft at the end because it's less messy)</em>

10 meters = 33 ft (rouned)

length of the Lysander is approx. 33 ft!

(the real length is 30 ft 6 in)

This means our approximations were correct once more.

Hopefully this helped you and made your night/day easier.

Please help will give BRAINLIEST if right
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

h=4

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 = h^2 + 4

b^2 = h^2 + 64

(2 + 8 )^2 = a^2 + b^2

100 = h^2 + 4 + h^2 + 64

100-68 = 2h^2

32 = h^2

h = 4

The diagram shows a 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube.
mylen [45]

Answer:

~8.66cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a diagonal of a rectangular of sides a and b is

\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

in a cube, we can start by computing the diagonal of a rectangular side/wall containing A and then the diagonal of the rectangle formed by that diagonal and the edge leading to A. If the cube has sides a, b and c, we infer that the length is:

\sqrt{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}^2 + c^2} = \sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}

Using this reasoning, we can prove that in a n-dimensional space, the length of the longest diagonal of a hypercube of edge lengths a_1, a_2, a_3, \ldots, a_n is

\sqrt{a_1^2 + a_2^2 + a_3^2 + \ldots + a_n^2}

So the solution here is

\sqrt{(5cm)^2 + (5cm)^2 + (5cm)^2} = \sqrt{75cm^2} = 5\sqrt{3cm^2} \approx 5\cdot 1.732cm = 8.66cm

Emily spent $55 from her savings account on a new dress explain how to describe the change in emilys savings balance in two diff
mote1985 [20]
You can either express the decrease that happened in the account savings by integers. To do this you simply subtract 55$ from the initial amount in the account. This is expressed as:
initial amount - 55$

or, you can express the decrease in the form of percentage by calculating how much is 55$ from the total amount. This is expressed as:
(5/initial amount) x 100
