Answer:

Width of the pool = 15 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of diagonal of swimming pool = 29 yards

Length of the pool = 25 yards

Let,

w be the width.

This will form a right angled triangle where the diagonal will be hypotenuse.

Using Pythagorean theorem;

(25)^2+(w)^2 = (29)^2\\625+w^2=841\\w^2= 841 - 625\\w^2 = 216

Taking square root on both sides

\sqrt{w^2}=\sqrt{216}\\w=14.70

Rounding off to nearest whole number

w = 15 yards

Hence,

Width of the pool = 15 yards

The two lines shown intersect at the point (a,b). Find ab. Each unit square in the grid represents a distance of 1.
Ket [755]

Answer:

(9/5, 8/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to find the equations of the lines. One line is y = 2x - 2 and the other line is y = 1/3x + 1. Then you want to find the x and y that both work in the two equations.

y = 2x - 2

y = 1/3x + 1

Then you do 2x - 2 = 1/3x + 1

Then you do some maths and you get 9/5, and 8/5

If the area of a rectangle is 144 sq. in. and the length of one side is 18in. what is the length of the other side?
navik [9.2K]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:  The other side has a length of 8

Discussion:

Area of a rectangle = l * w ( length times width). In our case

Area = 144 = l * w = 18 * w =>

18 w = 144  =>

w = 144/18 = 8


Thank you,

MrB
