Answer: 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

this creates a polygon which can be shortened to be a triangle with side lengths 3 and 4 and the hypotenuse unknown. to find the side length you use the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 4^2 = c^2

9 + 16 = c^2

25 = c^2

sqrt(25) = c

c = 5

A square has an area of 49 cm^2
crimeas [40]
To find area you need to multiply
length x width

Since 49 can be square rooted it equals seven

L x W = Area
Area = 7 x 7
Area = 49

Meaning since it’s a square the perimeter is
7 by 7 by 7 by 7 in other words 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 OR 7 x 4(equal sides)

A large stand of fir trees occupies 24 hectares. The trees have an average density of 1 tree per 20m squared. A forester estimat
Leona [35]

Answer:

The yield of the stand if one-tenth of the trees are cut is 360000 board-feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let is find the total amount of fir trees that occupies the area of 24 hectares. (1 hectare = 10000 square meters)

n = \sigma \cdot A

Where:

\sigma - Surface density, measured in trees per square meter.

A - Total area, measured in square meters.

Given that \sigma = \frac{1}{20}\,\frac{tree}{m^{2}} and A = 24\,h, the total amount of fir trees is:

n = \left(\frac{1}{20}\,\frac{trees}{m^{2}}  \right)\cdot (24\,h)\cdot \left(10000\,\frac{m^{2}}{h} \right)

n = 12000\,trees

It is known that one-tenth of the tress are cut, whose amount is:

n_{c} = 0.1 \cdot n

n_{c} = 0.1 \cdot (12000\,trees)

n_{c} = 1200\,trees

If each tree will yield 300 board-feet, then the yield related to the trees that are cut is:

y = S\cdot n_{c}

Where:

S - Yield of the tress, measured in board-feet per tree.

n_{c} - Amount of trees that will be cut, measured in trees.

If n_{c} = 1200\,trees and S = 300\,\frac{b-ft}{tree}, then:

y = \left(300\,\frac{b-ft}{tree} \right)\cdot (1200\,trees)

y = 360000\,b-ft

The yield of the stand if one-tenth of the trees are cut is 360000 board-feet.
