Answer:

Distance between dock and tree is 223.6 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per question distance between dock and boat is 300 m and distance between boat and tree is 200 m.

Let the distance between dock and tree is x m.

Therefore by applying Pythagoras theorem in the triangle formed

x² = 200² + 300²

x = √(300² - 200²) = √(90000 - 40000) = √50000 = 100√5 = 100×2.23606

x = 223.6 m

Therefore answer is distance between tree and dock will be 223.6 m.

use Pythagorean Theorem to satisfy...a^2 + b^2 = c^2

200^2 + b^2 = 300^2
b^2 = 300^2 - 200^2
b^2 = 50000  (get square root of each)
b = 223.606  (rounded to the nearest tenth.... = 223.6

zepelin [54]

Answer:

62 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that she reads 9 pages everyday before falling asleep. Then, on day one, she would read 9m pages.

On day 2, she would read another 9 pages, making 18 pages after 2 days. If she will finish the book in x days then

x = 550/9

=61 1/9 days

Converting the 1/9 into a day then, she will finish the book in 62 days, reading just a page on the 62nd day.

Answer:

<h2>6 is the Answer.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction consists of two parts the top number and the bottom one.

Think of the top number as the count and the bottom as the size indicator. So you have:

countsize indicator −−−−−−−−−−→proper names numeratordenominator

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Consider the action example of dividing 3 into 6.

We can do this division directly because their size indicators are the same. That is, we have: 61÷31. People do not normally write it this way but it is correct.

To directly divide the counts the size indicator must be the same

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So we need to see how many of 18 will fit into 34

We can not do this directly in one operation as the size indicators are not the same.

Lets make the size indicators (denominators) the same

Multiply by 1 and you do not change the value but

1 comes in many forms.

[34×1]÷18 → [34×22]÷18

[3×24×2]÷18 → 68÷18

Now that the size indicators (denominators) are the same we can just divide the counts (numerators)

countsize indicator→[68÷18]=6÷1=6

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I could explain more showing the connection between this and the shortcut method but what I have shown you will do for now.
