Mathematics

sweet [91]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

<u>Question One</u>

It's equilateral. All three sides are equal. The base is 34 as well. So two right angles can be formed on the base by dropping the altitude from the top vertex.

Givens

altitude = h

a = 34/2 = 17

hypotenuse = 34

Formula

a^2 + h^2 = c^2

Solution

17^2 + h^2 = 34^2

289 + h^2 = 1156

h^2 +289 =1156

h^2 = 1156 - 289

h^2 = 867

sqrt(h^2) = sqrt(867)

h = 29.444

==============

<u>Question Two</u>

Givens

b = 10 feet

c = ?

height = h = 16

Formula

c^2 = b^2 + h^2

Solution

c^2 = 10^2 + 16^2

c^2 = 100 + 256

c^2 = 356

sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(356)

c = 18.87

A square desktop has an area of 324 square inches. What is the length of one side of the desktop
Sveta_85 [38]
Question: The area of a square is 324 square inches. What is the length of one side of the square?
The formula for finding area of squares is:

Length x Width

Squares have 4 sides, and all sides measure the same. If the area is 324 square units, that means the length and width are the same.

x X x=x2

X2=324

x squared(x²) is equal to 324. To find x, you have to do the opposite of squaring, which is finding the square root.

x2= 324 —> square root of 324=x

To find x, you have find the square root of 324.

Square root of 324 is 8

The length of one side is 18 inches
Check:
The formula for finding area is:

Length x Width

The length and width gotten was 18. Put that into the formula:

18 x 18

Multiply:

18 x 18= 324

That means the answer is correct. Your answer is 18 inches.

What is the rate of change from x = n to x = 2n?​
puteri [66]

Answer:

\dfrac{-8}{\pi}

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of the function f(x) from point x_1 to point x_2 can be calculated using formula

\dfrac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}

Given

x_1=\pi\\ \\x_2=2\pi

From the graph of the function

f(x_1)=f(\pi)=4\\ \\f(x_2)=f(2\pi)=-4

So, the rate of change is

\dfrac{f(x_2)-f(x_1)}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{-4-4}{2\pi -\pi}=\dfrac{-8}{\pi}

You are purchasing soft drinks for the company annual party. You expect about 32 people to be there. You want to allow at least
qaws [65]
 
<span>32*18=576 oz. </span>



<span>Store A offers 24-12 oz cans for $5.89. That means $5.89 gets you 288 oz. Store B offers 12-12oz cans for $3.79, so that means $3.79 gets you 144oz. </span>

<span>Store A is $5.89 per every 288 oz. You need 576 oz, which is double that. That means it will cost you twice as much as it would buying 24-12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$5.89*2=$11.78 </span>

<span>Store B is $3.79 for 144 oz. As previously stated, you need 576 oz, so you'll need to buy 4 12-packs of 12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$3.79*4=15.16 </span>

<span>So not only is Store A a better deal, but they'll save you $15.16-$11.78=$3.38 dollars. </span>
