Answer:

The length of the diagonal of the frame equal 17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal dividing the rectangle as made the rectangle 2 triangles

So according to Pythagoras Theorem,

Hypothenus² = opposite² + adjacent²

The diagonal lent is the Hypothenus.

so the two other sides are taking as opposite and adjacent respectively

so taking h as hypothenus,

h² = 15² + 8²

h² = 225 + 64

h² = 289

h = √289

h = 17

Resolving inequalities 6/5x-12<2-3/2x

Anna007 [38]

Answer: x < $\frac{140}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{6}{5}x - 12 < 2 - \frac{3}{2}x$

$10(\frac{6}{5}x - 12) < 10(2 - \frac{3}{2}x)$

2(6)x - 10(12) < 10(2) - 5(3)x

12x - 120 < 20 - 15x

+15x +15x

27x - 120 < 20

+120 +120

27x < 140

$\frac{27x}{27} < \frac{140}{27}$

x < $\frac{140}{27}$

Tyree is determining the distance of a segment whose endpoints are A(–4, –2) and B(–7, –7).

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Tyree’s solution is inaccurate. In step 1, he substituted incorrectly.

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the distance between two point A(-4, -2) and B(-7, -7) we use the following distance formula

$d=\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1} )^2 \\\\$

x1=-4, x2=-7

y1=-2, y2=-7

so,

$d=\sqrt{(-7-(-4))^2+(-7-(-2) )^2\\}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-7+4)^2+(-7+2)^2 }\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(-5)^2 }\\\\\\\\d=\sqrt{9+25}\\ \\d=\sqrt{34}$

2/3x+5=1 what is the solution to the equation shown?

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{3}$ x + 5 = 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

$\frac{2}{3}$ x = - 4

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6
