Pytagorean theorem
height10
attached at 10-4=6 yards from bottom
8 yards from base to away
a^2+b^2=c^2
a and b are side legnths and c=hypotonuse
so therfore we are given a and b and we must solve for c
so
6=height
8=base
6^2+8^2=c^2
36+64=c^2
100=c^2
square root
10=c
so therfor the legnth of each cable is 10 yards
3 cables so 3 times 10=30
30 yards needed
3x-2-(2x+1)= 3x-2-2x-1
= x- 3
C. x - 3

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Much depends on how accurate an estimate you want.
If "to the nearest hundred" would be acceptable (it's a lot of work),
Round off 542817 to 542820 and 27398 to 2740. Then you'd want to subtract 2740 from 542820. (Again, it's a lot of work.)
Otherwise round off to the nearest thousand: 543000 - 27000.
Or go to the nearest ten thousand: 540,000 - 30,000 = 510,000 (estimate)
