Answer: The walking path around it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the Pythagorean's theorem, for a triangle rectangle with catheti A and B, and with hypotenuse H, we have:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

or

H = √(A^2 + B^2)

Here, A + B is the total distance for the path, while the hypotenuse is the distance for the bridge

Here we can see that:

A = 1170 ft

B = 520 ft

Then:

H = √( (520 ft)^2 + (1170 ft)^2) = 1280.4 ft

Now, let's compute the costs.

For the bridge, we know that each foot costs $11, then for 1280.4 ft the cost is:

Cost of the bridge = (1280.4)*$11 = $14,084.4

And for the walking path, the cost is $6 per foot, then the total cost of the path is:

Cost of the path = (520 ft + 1170 ft)*$6 = $10,140

We know that the bridge is preferred if it is within the range of $1500 for the path's cost.

This range is:

($10,140 - $1,500, $10,140 + $1,500) = ($8,640, $11,640)

Here we can see that the cost of the bridge does not belong to this range, (is higher) so the option we should recommend is the walking path around.

There are 32 girls and 17 boys what percent of the class are girls
gulaghasi [49]
Given that there are 32 girls and 17 boys, the total number of students in the class is 49. In order for us to know the percent of the girls in class, what we are going to do is to simply divide 32 by 49 and then multiply by 100 and the answer is 65.3%. Hope this answers your question.

Hey all you math geniuses can you help me with this question that should be easy
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

(B) \frac{-3}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is the expression which consists of addition, subtraction, multiplication with any variables or constants but the division with a variable is not considered as a polynomial.

Since \frac{-3}{x} consists of division of -3 with a variable, therefore it is not a polynomial, rest all other options are polynomial as they involve addition,multiplication with variables.

A Line Segment has the points (1,-2), and (3,-2). What are the new points after its dilated by a scale factor of 3/2 or 1.5
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The new points after dilation are

(3/2, -3) and (9/2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to give the new points of the line segment after it is dilated by a particular scale factor.

What is needed to be done here is to multiply the coordinates of the given line segment by the given scale factor.

Let’s call the positions on the line segment A and B.

Thus we have;

A = (1,-2) and B = (3,-2)

So by dilation, we multiply each of the specific data points by the scale factor and so we have;

A’ = (3/2, -3) and B’= (9/2,-3)
