5 0

Answer:

C) 4.0 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this.  It states that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse; algebraically,

a²+b² = c²

The height splits the base in two, giving us a leg of 3.  The hypotenuse is 5.  This gives us:

3²+b² = 5²

9+b² = 25

Subtract 9 from each side:

9+b²-9 = 25-9

b² = 16

Take the square root of each side:

√b² = √16 = 4

A friend has a 83% average before the final exam for a course. That score includes everything but the final, which counts for 25
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

\mathrm{Best\:course\:grade\:possible:\:}87.25\%,\\\mathrm{Minimum\:score\:on\:final\:to\:earn\:at\:least\:a\:75\%\:for\:the\:course:\:}51\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the maximum score for the final is 100\%, we can multiply each score by its respective course weight and add them together to give a final score. If your friend did receive this maximum score of 100\%, their overall grade for the course would be:

83(1-0.25)+100(0.25)=\fbox{$87.25\%$}.

To find the minimum score they need to earn a 75% for the course, we set up the following equation:

83(1-0.25)+x(0.25)=75, where x is the minimum score she needs.

Solving, we get:

62.25+x(0.25)=75,\\x(0.25)=12.75,\\x=\fbox{$51\%$}.

koda Buys 0.75 kg of cortos,which ia 5times the mas of the union he also Buys. How much does the union weigh?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

0.15kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We are told that

0.75 kg of cortos weights 5times the mas of the onion

We want to find the mass of 1 onion

Hence

0.75 kgcortos = 5 onions

      x cortos = 1 onions

x= 0.75/5

x= 0.15kg

Hence 1 onion will weigh 0.15kg

What is the value of x?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔTRQ is an isosceles right triangle, so if we find the value of RT then the value of 'x' will be the same

We can find RT by creating a proportion based on the ratio of sides in a 30-60-90° triangle which, respectively, is 1 : \sqrt{3} : 2

2\sqrt{3}/RT = \sqrt{3}/2

cross-multiply:

\sqrt{3}· RT = 4\sqrt{3}

RT = 4

Therefore, x = 4
