The area of a field shaped like a right triangle is 750yd^2.One leg of the field is fenced with wood costing $5/yd. the remainde
Elenna [48]
Assume that
 a and b = the two legs of the right triangle. 
 c =  the hypotenuse.

The area of the right triangle is 750 yd², therefore
(1/2)*a*b = 750
ab = 1500               (1)

The perimeter is 150yd, therefore
a + b + c = 150         (2)

Let the side fenced with wood be a, at $5/yd.  Sides b and c are fenced with steel at $10/y. The total cost is $1200, therefore
 5a + 10b + 10c = 1200            
or
a + 2b + 2c = 240         (3)

From (2), obtain 
c = 150 - a - b              (4)

Substitute (4) into (3)
a + 2b + 2(150 - a - b) = 240
-a + 300 = 240
a = 60

From (1), obtain
60b = 1500
b = 25

From (4), obtain
c = 150 - 60 - 25 = 65

Answer:
A. The length of the leg fenced with wood is 60 yd.
B.  The length of the leg fenced with steel is 25 yd.

The top of an off shore oil rig has an elevation of 199.2 m and its base has an elevation of -9.6 m and observation deck is loca
matrenka [14]

Answer: 57.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

That's a lot of words that questions usually use to try to trip us up but not this time so lets pull all relevant information

199.2m= top of off shore oil rig

-9.6 m is the base of the rig

observation deck is 1/6 of the total height

helly pad is 22.8m above the observation deck

First lets try to find the total height of the rig. We can do this by adding the absolute value of the top and base of the oil rig. So 199.2 + 9.6 = 208.8m

So the total height is 208.8m now lets find the observation deck. We know the observaition is 1/6 of the total height which is 208.8m right so lets multiply. 1/6*208.8m= 34.8m

Now we know the observation deck is 34.8m high. Finally we can find the helly pad which is 22.8 m above the observation deck.

Since the observation deck is 34.8m and the helly pad is 22.8 above observation deck (34.8m) all we have to do is add so 22.8+34.8= 57.6m

So we know the total height is 208.8m

The observation deck is 34.8m

And the helly pad is 57.6m
