Answer: the height of the television screen is 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the rectangular television screen is shown in the attached photo. The rectangle is labelled as ABCD. The diagonal forms a right angle triangle, ABC. This means that angle B is 90 degrees. The height it labelled as h. To determine h, we will apply Pythagoras theorem. Pythagoras theorem is expressed as

Hypotenuse ^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent ^2

From the diagram,

hypotenuse = 29 inches

Adjacent = 21 inches. Therefore,

29^2 = 21^2 + h^2

h^2 = 29^2 - 21^2 = 841 - 441

h = √400

h = 20 inches

I am stuck on this question it was can you add 4+2x to get 6x
Fed [463]

Answer:

No you can't.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 is an integer, and 2x isn't so you can't add them together. If 4 was 4x or 2x was 2, then you'd get 6, but you can't add them. Hope this helps :)

8 less than 1/3 a number n is -13
AysviL [449]
Let's set up an equation.

so we know the answer is -13.
1/3 of a number (our variable) can be written as 1/3n.
8 less than that would be subtracting 1/3n by 8

so we have -13 = 1/3n - 8.

To solve:
Add 8 to both sides: -5 = 1/3n
Multiply both sides by 3 (to cancel fraction): -15 = n

You can check by plugging -15 into the equation we made.

docker41 [41]

Given :

A trailer will be used to transport several 40-pound crates to a store.

The greatest amount of weight that can be loaded into the trailer is 1,050 pounds.

An 82-pound crate has already been loaded onto the trailer.

To Find :

The greatest number of 40-pound crates that can be loaded onto the trailer.

Solution :

Weight left = 1050 - 80 = 970 pound.

Let, number of 40 pounds crates that can be loaded are x.

x  = \dfrac{970}{40}\\\\x = 24.25

Since, crate cannot be in fraction, so maximum crate that can be loaded is 24.

Hence, this is the required solution.
