Pythagorean Theorem Word

Mathematics
1 answer:
diamong [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In the attached diagram, Point A is the starting point and C is the end point. We want to determine the distance from A to C.

The path driven forms a right triangle in which AC is the hypotenuse.

We therefore use the<u> Pythagorean Theorem</u> to solve for the AC.

Pythagorean Theorem: Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2

|AC|^2=32^2+24^2\\|AC|^2=1600\\|AC|=\sqrt{1600}\\ |AC|=40$ miles

The  straight  line distance from the starting point is 40 miles.

Semenov [28]

Answer: S = 20 lbs L = 45 lbs.  Both answer have been rounded from below

Step-by-step explanation:

L+S = 65 lbs

55L + 65S = 3774 lbs

55L+55S = (65)(55) = 3,575 lbs

10S = 199 lbs

S = 19.99 (round to 20)

L + S = 65

L + 19.99 = 65

L = 45.01 (round to 45)

Carla has 1 gallon of paint. She is going to pour it into a paint tray that measures 10 inches wide, 10 inches long, and 7 cm de
STatiana [176]
To determine the correct statement in the choices presented, we first have to solve the area of the tray. We assume it to be in a rectangular form so the area is:

Area = 10 in x 10 in x 7/2.54 in = 275.59 in³ for the paint tray
1 gallon paint = 231 in³ paint

Therefore, the correct answer is the first option. <span>The paint will not fill the tray by 44.59 in</span>³<span>.</span>

Match each scenario with the type of correlation it shows
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

1- Positive correlation

2- Negative correlation

3- No correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

1- The more a player practices free throws, the better they will be at it and therefore will make more free throws. Thus, there is a positive correlation between the time spent practicing and the  number of free throws made.

2- Since each item bought has a cost, the more items are bought, lower will be the checking account balance. Thus, there is a negative correlation the number of items bought and the  checking account balance.

3- There is no explicit correlation between players heights and their ability to hit a baseball therefore it is fair to assume that there is no correlation between the height of baseball player and the  number of hits made
