A flying squirrel's nest is 12 feet high in a tree. From its nest, the flying squirrel glides 20 feet to reach an acorn that is
on the ground. How far is the acorn from the base of the tree?
1 answer:
Answer:
16 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance (D) of acorn from base of tree :
Using Pythagoras :
Adjacent = sqrt[(hypotenus² - opposite²)]
Hence,
D = sqrt[(20² - 12²)]
D = sqrt[(400 - 144)]
D = sqrt(256)
D = 16 feets

Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 + 3/x = 3/4
multiply everything by x
1/2x + 3 = 3/4x...subtract 1/2x from both sides
3 = 3/4x - 1/2x
3 = 3/4x - 2/4x
3 = 1/4x...multiply both sides by 4
4 * 3 = x
12 = x
8/36
= 2/9 after dividing by 4
