Answer:

z = 6√2 = 8.49

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are to find the value of the length z.

Mathematically, using Pythagoras’s theorem we can do this.

The Pythagoras’ theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the length of the squares of the two other sides.

Kindly note that the hypotenuse is the side that faces the angle 90

These are the points needed to solve for z

Using Pythagoras,

z^2 = y^2 + 4^2

z^2 = y^2 + 16 •••••••(i)

x^2 + z^2 = 20^2

x^2 + z^2 = 400 •••••••••(ii)

z^2 + 16^2 = x^2. ••••••••(iii)

Substitute iii into ii

z^2 + 16^2 + z^2 = 400

2z^2 + 256 = 400

2z^2 = 400-256

2z^2 = 144

z^2 = 72

z = √(72)

z = 6√2

Mrs travis wants to have the clown deliver balloons to her secretary's office. Clowns R Fun charges $1.25 per balloon and $6 for
marysya [2.9K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


6 balloons.


Explanation:


Let x represent the number of balloons purchased.


We will call the function for Clowns R Fun c(x):

c(x) = 1.25x+6


We will call the function for Singing Balloons s(x):

s(x) = 1.95x+2


We want the amount for Clowns R Fun, c(x) to be less:

c(x) < s(x)

1.25x+6 < 1.95x+2


Subtract 1.25x from each side:

1.25x+6-1.25x < 1.95x+2-1.25x

6 < 0.7x+2


Subtract 2 from each side:

6-2 < 0.7x+2-2

4 < 0.7x


Divide each side by 0.7:

4/0.7 < 0.7x/0.7

5.7 < x

x > 5.7


She must buy more than 5.7 balloons; the next integer up is 6. She must buy 6 or more balloons.
