Stanley the skunk will save about 15.5 feet.
This problem can be solve with the Pythagorean Theorem. The possible paths that Stanley can take make a right triangle. The legs of the triangle are 25 and 28, and the hypotenuse would be 37.5.
If Stanley went the long way, he would travel 25 + 28 = 53 feet. Taking the short way (hypotenuse) is 53 - 37.5 = 15.5 feet shorter.
Answer:
B and D
Step-by-step explanation:
A is false as it would be 3.08 when rounded.
C is false as it is rounded to the tenth not hundredth.
Since we are given the lengths of 2 sides with the angle in
between, therefore by cosine law we can only construct 1 triangle from this. By
stating the angle in between, this constricts the possible number of triangles
that can be formed into 1.
By calculation, the length of the 3rd side is
calculated using cosine law:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 – 2abcosθ
c^2 = 10^2 + 8^2 – 2(10)(8)cos40
c = 6.44 cm
ANSWER:
1 triangle
Answer:
$5.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The function we are given is
p = 0.80n + 5.50,
where n is the number of balls.
Multiplying this variable by 0.80 means $0.80 will be the cost per ball. The additional amount added to the variable in the function, 5.50, will be the entrance fee.
