Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m

For any integers x and y, min(x, y) and max(x, y) denote the minimum and the maximum of x and y, respectively. For example, min(
Annette [7]

Answer:

min(10,w)=\left \{ {{w} \quad\text{for } w

Step-by-step explanation:

No value of w is given, so we can only tell you the meaning of <em>min(10, w)</em>:

When w < 10, min(10, w) is w.

When w ≥ 10, 10 is the smaller of the two values, so min(10, w) = 10.

icang [17]

Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation: The formula for calculating a triangle’s area is 1/2(base•height). This means that 12•3 is 36, which multiplied by 1/2 is 18.

It takes Bobby 12 hours longer to build a robot than it takes Alex. Together, they can build the Robot in 8 hours. How long does
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of hours taken by Bobby to build the robot by himself is shown below:

Given that

Bobby could take 12 hours

Together they could build in 8 hours

So based on the above information

the number of hours taken by Bobby to build the robot by himself is

Let us assume the above line be x

So,

\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{x}  \\\\\frac{6 - 4}{48} = \frac{1}{x}  \\\\\frac{2}{48} = \frac{1}{x}  \\\\x = \frac{48}{2}

x = 24 hours
