we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.
<h3>How many more inches of snow were on the ground at 5:00 p.m. than at 8:00 a.m.?</h3>
We know that at 8:00 a.m. there were t inches of snow in the ground.
At 5:00 p.m. there were 3t inches of snow in the ground.
Then the difference between the heights of the snow is:
3t- t = 2t
And we know that at 5:00 p.m. there were 12 inches of snow then we can solve the linear equation for t:
3t = 12in
t = (12in)/3 = 4 in
Replacing that in the difference of heights:
2t = 2*4in = 8in
From this, we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.

Answer:
The distance between the base of the tree and the flower is 9m
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we have to paint a picture.
The flower is on the ground, the height of the tree is 12m.
The distance from the nest to the flower on the floor is 15m
Indisputably, what we have is a right angled triangle, with the height being 12m, the length of the hypotenuse being 15 and we are asked to calculate the adjacent which represents the distance from the base of the tree to the flower
To get this distance, we simply apply the Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse(longest side of the triangle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Thus mathematically, we know that our hypotenuse is 15m and the height is 12m
The length we are to calculate is the adjacent and it is equal to;
15^2 - 12^2
= 225 - 144
= 81
The length is thus
√(81) = 9m

Answer:
4.58 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem is used to answer such questions. It tells you the relation between the side lengths is ...
AC² = AB² +BC²
In miles, ...
5² = AB² + 2² . . . . . . . fill in the given numbers
25 -4 = AB² . . . . . . . . subtract 2²
√21 = AB ≈ 4.58 . . . . . take the square root
The distance in miles from A to B is about 4.58.
Hello there! :)
Answer:
First choice, (x + 2) and (x - 6).
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for the dimensions, recall that the formula for the volume of a rectangle is:
A = l × w
Simply factor x² -4 - 12. Find two numbers that add up to -4 and multiply into -12.
2, -6 satisfy these conditions. Use these numbers to write this equation in factored form:
(x + 2) (x - 6). Thus, the first option is the correct answer.
