You enter a relay race. To start, you must run 20 yards to Checkpoint A. You then must turn and run 12 yards to Checkpoint B. La

st, you must turn and run back to the starting line. What is the distance from Checkpoint B to the starting line? THANKS :)

Distance to checkpoint A from starting line = 20 yards.

Then from A to B distance = 12 yards.

Let us take starting point C.

So, it would make a right triangle.

We have AB = 12, AC = 20, we need to find BC, that is Hypotenuse of the right triangle.

According to Pythagoras theorem:

BC^2 = AB^2+AC^2

BC^2 = 12^2+20^2

BC^2 = 144 +400 = 544

BC= \sqrt{544}

BC = 23.32.

<h3>Therefore,  23.32 yards is the distance from Checkpoint B to the starting line.</h3>

Answer:

The shortest distance between checkpoint A and checkpoint B is 23.33 yards.        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Let O be the starting point.

Distance between the starting point and checkpoint A = 20 yards

To reach checkpoint B, one need to take a turn and let it be a 90 degrees turn toward right or left.

Distance between checkpoint A and checkpoint B = 12 yards

In order to find the shortest distance between the checkpoint A and checkpoint B, the displacement, we use the Pythagoras theorem.

Statement:

In  a right angled triangle:

(Side 1)^2 + (Side 2)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2

(OA)^2 + (AB)^2 = (AB)^2\\(20)^2 + (12)^2 = (AB)^2\\400 + 144 = (AB)^2\\(AB)^2 = 544\\AB = \sqrt{544} \approx 23.33

Hence, the shortest distance between checkpoint A and checkpoint B is 23.33 yards.

Answer: number 3 is 32 number 4 is 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:You see in number 3 it says a millipede has 14 more legs than a caterpillar. Also it states the total of the legs are 46. This means you must subtract. 46-14 is equal to 32. And for number 4 it states the total time of all her classes are 1 hour and 10 minutes. The yoga class is 30 minutes longer. This means you must subtract those 30 minutes from the 1 hour and 10 minutes. 1 hour and 10 minutes- 30 minutes is equal to 40 minutes. This is the answer.

Hope this helps!!

El volumen que queda entre la esfera y el cubo es:  30.49cm^3

<h3>¿Como calcular el volume sobrante?</h3>

El volumen sobrante será simplemente la diferencia entre el volumen del cubo y el volumen de la esfera.

Para el cubo que tiene una arista de 4cm, el volumen es:

V = (4cm)^3 = 64 cm^3

Para la esfera con un diametro de 4cm, el radio es:

R = 4cm/2 = 2cm

Y el volumen será:

V' = (4/3)*3.141592654*(2cm)^3 = 33.51 cm^3

El volumen que queda entre la esfera y el cubo es:

V - V' = 64 cm^3 - 33.51 cm^3 = 30.49cm^3
